About Comprendé

We’re a values-based company, driven by kindness, integrity, and generousity.

Our purpose

To raise the standards of the property industry by leading with empathy and care.

Our mission

To create exceptional property experiences and a culture where people thrive.

Our vision

A sustainable, people-first business, famous for not just what we do, but how we do it.

Where it all started

Comprendé was founded in 2014 by Grant Foggo with a simple but bold vision, to raise the standard of property management by putting people first.

At the time, Grant was a tenant himself. He saw an opportunity to create a company where landlords and tenants were treated as equals with fairness, transparency, and genuine care at the heart of every interaction.

What began as a small team of three has grown into a talented team of more than 20, expanding beyond property management to include real estate and short-stay boutique accommodation.

Today, Comprendé is proud to be a trusted one-stop property partner offering expertise across every stage of property ownership and living.

“The name Comprendé means ‘to understand’, and that’s exactly what drives us”

Grant Foggo.

Our brand pillars

These are the cornerstones of our brand and underpin everything we do:

These values drive us. It’s how we treat everyone we work with. It’s often the small things that make a big difference.

Like you, we’re Wellingtonians, landlords, tenants, and investors. We get it and we get you. When you work with Comprende, you’ll get a team who act with integrity every step of the way.

The property industry isn’t for the faint-hearted. We work hard and we’re ambitious, always striving to get the best results for you.

Our new brand partnership

Comprendé & Wellington Saints

At Comprendé, property has always been about more than houses, tenancies, sales and investment returns. It’s about helping people feel at home and supporting the communities that make Wellington such a great place to live. 

That’s why our sponsorship of the Wellington Saints feels like such a natural fit. As one of Wellington’s most loved sporting teams, the Saints bring together families, fans and communities from across the region. Their games are full of energy, connection and local pride – qualities that reflect the best of Wellington. 

Supporting the Saints is our way of backing an organisation that contributes so much to our city.

Tegan O’Connor, Inspections & Letting Specialist at Comprendé, has been helping me find a new home in Wellington, and the experience has been excellent. Tegan’s approach is professional, friendly, and genuinely supportive. She has a positive, can-do attitude, and nothing ever seems to be too much trouble. She is approachable and made the process a lot less stressful. What I appreciate most is that Tegan follows through on what she says she will do. She communicates clearly, keeps her commitments, and is proactive throughout the process. I would highly recommend Tegan to anyone looking for a property professional who is knowledgeable, responsive, and truly cares about delivering a great experience.

I had the privilege of working with Sarah Fox-Moore from Comprende. She was outstanding, and I would gladly have her as my rental agent again. Comprende is very lucky to have her.

I had such an amazing experience with Comprende, especially with Hannah Penman, that I genuinely felt the need to leave a review. From the very beginning, Hannah made me feel comfortable and welcomed throughout the entire viewing process. Her communication was incredible — she was engaging, approachable, and so quick to answer every question I had. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble for her. What really stood out to me was how proactive she was. While showing me one apartment, she mentioned another unit in the same building and offered to show me that as well because she felt it might actually suit me better — and honestly, she was right. I really appreciated her taking the time to give me that opportunity and all the information I needed to compare both options properly. On top of that, I ended up not being able to make it to my second viewing due to being tight on time. Instead of just leaving it there, Hannah went out of her way to take detailed videos for me so I could still get a proper feel for the property. When I asked if she could even put herself in the frame so I’d have a size reference — since we had already met in person — she happily did it, even though I could tell it pushed her a little outside of her comfort zone. That level of effort and customer service is honestly rare to come by. Hannah genuinely went above and beyond to make sure I felt informed, comfortable, and looked after throughout the process. Thank you again Hannah and the Comprende team for such top-notch service. It truly made a stressful process feel exciting and easy.
