Professionals is set to double its presence in one of Queensland’s most sought-after real estate markets.
Professionals Mount Tamborine will merge with Serendipity Real Estate to form Professionals Serendipity. The new business will service Mount Tamborine and Tamborine Village.
Co-principal and president of the Mount Tamborine Chamber of Commerce Alison Rip said the merger was an excellent fit for both agencies.
“Between the two agencies we have 18 years’ experience servicing the real estate needs of both communities,” she said.
Ms Rip said the communities were attracting families looking to move away from then hustle and bustle of larger communities.
“The schools in the area have a very strong reputation which is another plus for families.
“We are also seeing a lot of people looking for a tree-change community that they can still commute to Brisbane or the Gold Coast from.”
Professionals CEO David Crombie said the move showed the attraction of the Professionals brand.
“Mount Tamborine has been tipped by many real estate experts as a community that will benefit hugely from an expected upswing in property values in south east Queensland,” he said.
“With real estate sitting at or close to the top of the property clock in Sydney and Melbourne homes in Queensland’s south east corner are a very attractive proposition for anyone looking to move north.
“Added to that, Mount Tamborine sits in native rainforest with an abundance of bushwalking tracks and is home to activities like hang gliding and horse riding.
“It’s the perfect setting for anyone looking for a tree-change while retaining an easy commute to large employment centres like Brisbane or the Gold Coast.”
Professionals Real Estate Group continues to grow its agency network, aided by its unique membership model.
“Our membership network is different to a franchise system because it allows members to use a well-known real estate brand and to access extensive support through a comprehensive suite of tools and services,” Mr Crombie said.
“As a member of the Professionals network, members have greater autonomy to drive their business forward while also offering the advantage of more attractive fees than a typical franchise.”
