With over 22 years of experience in real estate I have sold in excess of $500 million dollars’ worth of property in that time. I have a hard-earned reputation as a very solid performer, consistently achieving outstanding results for my clients year after year.

My background is in sales and finance, I am very analytical, systems-driven and renowned for attention to detail. My proven track record in real estate has seen a large proportion of my business coming from referrals and repeat clients – they have obviously appreciated my calm and steadying influence. I am also tenacious at the negotiating stage and will keep going and going until the deal is done.

When it comes to getting the best price, this is where I have the winning point of difference. Instead of putting pressure on my clients to accept a lower price, I will go back to the buyers until I am absolutely certain that I have achieved the best price possible. This approach is done in a manner that is calm and persuasive, not aggressive or intimidating.

Forward-thinking and not afraid of trying new methods to reach the optimum number of buyers for each property, you will find working with me a very rewarding experience, so get in touch and let’s have a chat about how I can add the most value to your property sale.
