John Galea

John started his working life helping to create and renovate homes around Melbourne as a plumber, but swapped the work boots for a suit in 2006 when he made the transition to real estate. He’s been with Jas Stephens since 2015, and in that time he’s won the trust and hearts of countless vendors and buyers, guiding them through the process with his trademark kindness, honesty, and attention to detail.

Having grown up across the Inner West, John is a Doggies fan from way back, and loves nothing more than sitting back with a single malt to watch the footy and analyse the intricacies of the game. On the weekends, he can be found chasing down the perfect pub meal on long drives exploring regional Victoria with his wife and two daughters.

What John’s clients are saying:

‘We engaged John to sell our house in Kingsville. Initially we were impressed by how thorough and engaged he was in our property and in developing a sales strategy and an appropriate, realistic price at a time that interest rates were rising and the market softening. Every decision and guidance was supported by a clear rationale and evidence. John's plan was then executed carefully, and the result was a one month campaign, three open houses, and a successful sale at auction. Throughout this process we received clear and frequent updates on all the conversations with prospective buyers and John was always available to discuss any information as things unfolded. Jas Stephens conducted an excellent auction and we were pleased and relieved to sell slightly above our estimated range. However, John's assistance did not end there. The following week he helped us to negotiate the purchase of our next home. We are so grateful for his help and sensitivity as our family were experiencing difficult circumstances at the time. I can't recommend John Galea more highly for his professionalism, his authenticity, his trustworthiness, and his kindness.’
