Property. Strategy. Advisory.

The best homes in Sydney often sell quietly. After 18 years on both sides of the deal, I know where to find them and how to secure them.

I spent years as a selling agent with McGrath Head Office, The Agency Head Office, LJ Hooker, Raine & Horne and Laing + Simmons. Now I work only for you, with senior, personal advice from the first search to exchange and then settlement.

Client stories

Real results, on and off market.

Referred by a past clientOff marketNo competitionUnder budget

A young couple, Eastern Suburbs

The brief

They were referred to me by a close friend of theirs, a past client whose terrace I had also secured. They had been looking for some time and wanted access to off market homes.

The challenge

Good terraces in their preferred suburb rarely come up, and the ones that reach auction draw strong competition and push prices up.

What I did

We inspected on and off market and attended auctions together. I then went to my network of selling agents across the East, built over my years on the selling side.

The result

I secured an off market terrace in their preferred suburb, with no competition, within a very short time and well under their budget.
