With a career spanning four decades and three states, I bring a level of real estate depth to the Derwent Valley, New Norfolk, and Central Highlands that is hard to match. From the historic streets of Tring in the UK to the rolling hills of Buderim and Lismore and now firmly planted in regional Tasmania, I've sold everything from cozy town cottages to expansive 700-hectare primary production farms.

My approach isn't just about the "Sold" sticker - it's about the strategy, the stamina and the high-touch communication required to get there.

The Real Estate Edge: Strategy & Detail

I thrive on the complexities of the industry. Whether it's navigating a new subdivision or managing the sale of a significant historic landmark like Cleburne Homestead, I am the "go-to" agent for projects that require a sharp eye for detail and out-of-the-box thinking.

• Process Mastery: I take pride in guiding a sale from the first handshake through to a seamless settlement.

• The "No-Surprises" Policy: I believe in keeping the lines open between buyers, sellers, and legal teams. You'll hear from me constantly - whether the news is great or challenging - because transparency is the only way to build real trust.

• Constant Evolution: Even after 40 years, I am a student of the game, always learning new legislative and market nuances to give my clients a competitive advantage.

The Hospitality Advantage

Beyond my decades in property, my time spent in the hospitality industry has sharpened a unique set of "soft skills" that are vital in high-stakes negotiations:

• Hyper-Awareness: The ability to read a room and anticipate a client's needs before they even voice them.

• Grace Under Pressure: Managing complex, fast-moving transactions with a calm, professional demeanour.

• Service Excellence: A deep-seated commitment to making the client feel heard, valued, and prioritized throughout the entire journey.

Life in the Valley

When I'm not at the negotiation table, you'll likely find me on the squash courts at Bellerive. It's where I maintain my fitness, unwind and connect with the community - the same competitive drive I bring to the court, I bring to your property sale.

I live locally in Hamilton with my wife, Sam (who many of you may know from her work at Corumbene in New Norfolk), and our two cats, Morpheus and Hermes. While their names might suggest Greek messengers, they're mostly just experts at keeping me grounded after a long day of work.
