My job is the best job in the world.

I have been in real estate for 32 years and still love coming to work. Every day I get to meet new people from all different walks of life and cultures. One day I might sell a block of land in Narara, the next an acreage in Somersby, then a magnificent waterfront home in Point Frederick and a factory West Gosford. Where else can you find a profession with such variety. Real estate has given me the opportunity to help hundreds of people find their dream home or perfect investment for the future.

When you’re not at work, how do you like to spend your time?

My version of relaxing is to be on the water, I don’t care if it’s a canoe, yacht or cruising. As soon as I am on the water, I relax. A lot of my friends play golf and they tell me that as soon as they hit off, they forget about the pressures of work. Being on the water is my golf, besides that I am hopeless at it so best I stick to the water.

I have been fortunate to sail at the Hamilton Island Yacht week twice now and it has to be one of the best places in the world to sail, the water is magnificent and you are usually surrounded by dolphins and whales. It can’t get better than that.
