I’ve always had a strong connection to Wollongong and the Illawarra. It’s a region where I’ve lived, invested, and worked, and over the years, it’s become a place that feels as much a part of my story as the Highlands. I often describe my lifestyle as a balance between coast and country: the cool climate and charm of the Southern Highlands, paired with the relaxed, salt-air energy of the Illawarra coastline.
Buying and investing with first-hand experience
As both a buyer’s agent and an investor, I’ve purchased property in Wollongong. That firsthand experience helps me guide clients with confidence because I understand the local market, not just from data and sales results, but from a lived experience. I know what makes a property here a smart long-term choice, whether it’s for a family home, a sea-change escape, or an investment with strong growth potential.
Life on the coast
When I’m not working, I’m often on the coast with my Kelpie, Bluey. We’ll head out for early morning walks along the beaches or coastal tracks. It’s those simple moments, surrounded by ocean views and the friendly local community, that remind me why this region draws so many people in.
Why buyers are drawn to the Illawarra
The Illawarra offers something truly unique: natural beauty, creative energy, and a strong sense of community that continues to evolve. Each suburb has its own personality, its own local dining scene, and a growing number of buyers relocating from Sydney in search of a lifestyle without compromise.
