Helm has for the past 7 years been actively involved in the real estate industry running the property website of Realestate.co.nz up until 2012.

In addition to running Properazzi, Helm also is the CEO of Property Portal Watch, which provides a media reporting and insight to the specialist industry of property websites around the world.
