As the Head of Property Management at Barfoot & Thompson St Heliers, I’m committed to ensuring that when you enlist my help, you can sit back and relax, knowing your property is in expert hands.

For both landlords and tenants, my goal is to connect you with your ideal property.

I have a proven track record in the Property Management sector. Also, when completing my Bachelor’s degree in Marketing Management, I was honoured with a High Achiever Award, and after that I received a Merit award when completing my Master’s degree in Global Business.

When I was living in Sri Lanka I gained experience in customer marketing and key account management and I developed a real solution-driven approach, which I use every day in Property Management. I pride myself on my friendly personality and my philosophy of treating your property as if it were my own. This helps me build strong relationships with both landlords and prospective tenants.

St Heliers with its sandy beaches, scenic parks, and breath-taking views of the harbour and Rangitoto has always been a place close to my heart. The suburb's vibrant culture and stunning surroundings make it an exceptional place to live and work.

When I’m not managing properties, I enjoy playing the guitar and exploring new and exciting destinations.

I’m fluent in both Sinhalese and English, and you’ll find me at Barfoot & Thompson St Heliers, conveniently located on the corner of Tamaki Drive and Saint Heliers Bay Road. With plenty of nearby cafes, feel free to drop in for a coffee, and let’s get started on your property goals.

What my clients say

Excellent, efficient and absolutely swift. Hasaru is the BEST. 5 Stars - We had to move out of our current property as the landlord had sold it. We were distressed and on edge. Then we came across Hasaru Weerasinghe - everything happened so fast and we are now moving into our new home. Highly recommended. 5 stars is quite low, should be more.

Exceptional customer service and great record-keeping!
We love Barfoot & Thompson managing our property because:

1. Our contact Property Manager, Hasaru Weerasinghe, provides us with exceptional customer service at all times. He’s always available and always fixes our issues/problems in a prompt manner. He has excellent communication skills.

2. Your record keeping via the monthly statements provides all the info we want in a timely, accurate and easily understood manner. And we appreciate the copy of invoices attached to the monthly statements for any outgoings. It is perfect to do our tax returns from and all the info ties back to the monthly bankings. Couldn’t ask for more.

Competent, friendly and professional property management!
I have used Barfoot & Thompson St Heliers to manage my properties for over 13 years. They have consistently provided excellent customer service, managing our properties seamlessly. They offer clear, timely communication, manage issues competently and offer excellent value for money. I will continue using their services and recommend them to anyone looking for a property manager.

Leanne Horridge

Hasaru was highly recommended to us by a close friend. From our first meeting it was clear that Hasaru had a good understanding of the rental market. Placing our house on the rental market was not an easy decision as we had personally lived in the home for several years. Hasaru's  professional and calm manner helped guide us through that. After signing with Hasaru, a very suitable tenant was soon found. The whole process was stress-free.

We highly recommend Hasaru to future landlords.

Glenice Thompson & Mark Rea

Everything done in the management of my rental property from the beginning to the end has been excellent. Hasaru is my Property Manager and he goes above and beyond to give me total peace of mind and is extremely professional.

Eric Kjestrup

I would just like to say a huge thank you to you, for having Hasaru at the right place at the right time for me and my boys. He's such a fine, young man. His way of communicating - he knew exactly what we wanted and showed us just three places before we made our choice!

He saved me so much of potential stress as I had sold and needed to find a suitable place for me and my adult sons before the settlement date. He's very responsible with his clients and on the day of our move, he came over as we couldn't work out how to get the rangehood switched on.

My two friends who were with me were very impressed with him and his manner and knowledge about real estate etc - so, clearly I'm not biased!

I hope Hasaru is duly recognised as your esteemed member of staff, if he's not already - he's invaluable! We wish him the best and know he will continue to rise to great heights!

Nesa Mahalingam, Vhivanesh & Dirrenesh Thirukumar

Hasaru's current market knowledge, his professionalism and personal attributes have not only impressed, but also assured us that our interests are in excellent hands. In bringing our property to the rental market, Hasaru displayed genuine care in placing the best tenant in the property and going above-and-beyond to clarify the necessary details. Hasaru's awareness of the rental market, both locally and within surrounding neighbourhoods ensured we achieved a premium, yet realistic weekly rental. All communication has been thorough, with any issues dealt with in a prompt manner, reflective of Hasaru's attention to detail.

We have been equally impressed by Hasaru's personal qualities; his friendly yet professional manner, Hasaru's enthusiasm for his work and his genuine desire to achieve the best outcome for his clients. An excellent, trustworthy and thoughtful property manager.

Hasaru Weerasinghe (Hasi) is an extremely enthusiastic, passionate and knowledgeable Property Manager with an admirable skillset and engaging personality. His consistent, thorough, proactive communication kept me abreast of everything. We quickly established a respectful working relationship that provided tangible benefits to me as a property Investor.

Hasaru places a high priority around property presentation to attract the best quality tenant. All maintenance issues are reported and addressed by professional tradespersons.

I was impressed with Hasaru’s ability to pick the rental market correctly and have the confidence to try for the best rental amount. This is performance well above just managing a property, its about getting a better return on investment for a property investor. Only a Property Manager with a thorough understanding of the property market and an ability to negotiate with tenants could do that.

If you are looking for a professional Property Manager to protect and enhance your property investment, I can thoroughly recommend Hasaru Weerasinghe.

Grant Mitchell - Property Investor

Hasaru Weerasinghe has been looking after my interests to ensure our house was rented promptly and in a timely manner . On the very first house viewing he managed to secure tenants to rent our house. Hasaru has been very good at listening to my needs, and offering support and guidance that has given me peace of mind.

He has been very professional when dealing with me, but also has high enthusiasm, energy and clearly loves what he does. I was impressed with Hasaru’s prompt service, very timely, making me feel like I was his priority. Going the extra mile if needed to get my house rented, was Hasaru’s goal, and that I valued.

I feel I have high trust in Hasaru and have confidence that he will continue to take great care of our house, and the needs of our tenants.

Goulder-Pham Family

I’ve been using Barfoot & Thompson property management services since 2007 and I can say that Hasaru is the best Property Manager I’ve dealt with.

What made me say so? Well, Hasaru doesn’t just plod through his job. Quite the opposite. From the very beginning I noticed some extra enthusiasm and dedication. Hasaru is an excellent communicator, he responds to messages very quickly, he knows legislation very well, he understands my interests, he knows the market and he is realistic. I like the way he discussed the potential tenant applications with me and picking up the right ones. He is very efficient - he was able to rent both my properties in a single viewing.

I can recommend Hasaru to anyone thinking of having their property successfully managed.

Zeljko V

"Hasaru has been a very good Property Manager to deal with. He visited my property on the day I called for the first time and gave me all the information I needed to know up-front, which I really appreciated. Once my house was on the market to find a suitable tenant, Hasaru provided me with regular text and phone call updates in relation to how the viewings went and applicants I received. Really happy with the service provided and would highly recommend Hasaru to other homeowners."

Aingaran M

We own a flat in Eltham Road Kohimarama and currently live in Spain. Hasaru Weerasinghe is the Barfoot & Thompson staff member who currently takes care of the management of this for us.

We would like to pass on our compliments to you for having such a helpful person on your team. Hasaru has been excellent in dealing with all aspects of the management of this property and deals with anything either us, or the tenant requests, in a prompt and efficient manner.

Both of us have been in customer service roles for most of our lives and still are to some extent, so we do appreciate sometimes it is not easy, but Hasaru comes through with flying colours.

Hasaru has managed our property since listing it in March 2020. It has been a pleasure to deal with him. He is professional, communicates effectively and acts promptly to any queries or requests. He is knowledgeable and transparent in all facets of the rental market.
