About Laureen
Laureen has a genuine desire to share the unique lifestyle opportunities and the pristine beauty of Bruny Island. It is this passion Laureen has for her Island home, together with her friendly, approachable personality and the dedication she shows her clients that has resulted in Laureen’s real estate success throughout her years on Bruny Island. Laureen is both thrilled and excited to join First National Real Estate Hobart & Kingston, where the focus is putting the needs of the client first – at all times! This company culture is endemic of Laureen’s absolute commitment to her clients. Laureen has a work ethic that goes above and beyond, with testimonials that paint Laureen as having a welcoming and professional nature that draws people to want to engage with her. From her role as Personal Assistant to the Managing Director in a leading Sydney architectural firm, coupled with a career in selling Commercial Fit-outs, Laureen brings heightened attention to detail and the promise of first class service. Drawn to the island by her sense of adventure, Laureen, together with her family, ideally wanted a genuine lifestyle where they could enjoy the natural world around them! Always passionate about her local community, Laureen is a fitness trainer in her spare time and ran exercise classes at the Bruny Island Community Health Centre spanning over four years and took great pride in co-ordinating/facilitating the Bruny Island Kids Artzone in 2015. Laureen has a special interest in art and design and delights in presenting local properties at their absolute best! It is not in Laureen’s nature to do anything by halves and Laureen prides herself on being the only Property Consultant, living on Bruny Island, to exclusively list and sell property on the island. This means all Laureen’s focus and attention remains on the island ensuring the best availability and highest possible level of service! With the desire to want to give back to the island and its people, Laureen has been instrumental in establishing several sponsorships of local Bruny Island businesses during her real estate career. Laureen’s vision of wanting to offer Bruny Island property owners a complete real estate service has also led to the establishment of Property Management for short/long term tenants on Bruny. Laureen delights in welcoming newcomers to an idyllic way of life, always with a smile!

She is ethical, meticulous to details, has a customer focus and has a lioness work ethos. I have nothing but positive accolades to cite in this review of Laureen's performance.

Excellence in all aspects during the sale of my home

Laureen was very professional in all aspects of the sale. Nothing was any bother and she was on top of everything when we encountered a few hiccups. I appreciate how she went over and above to help me get the sale finalised. Would recommend her any time
