About Kaine

According to Kaine Rowe personal and professional ethics are one and the same. Coming from a farming family background, a strong work ethic was installed in him from a young age and combined with excellent communication and people skills, he has a solid reputation in the Cairns marketplace. Like so many locals, he succumbed to the magic of Cairns and its surrounding environs and now as Co-Principal of Belle Property Cairns, he is ideally positioned to share his love of the area with others wanting to call this somewhat unrealised paradise home. Whilst according to some, the property industry can be challenging, Kaine is of the firm opinion that helping and supporting clients in realising their goals and dreams is also immensely rewarding. Its what he loves to do. Offering honest professionalism and the highest level of service to their clientele is what the entire team at Belle Property Cairns believes has proven to be their edge over their competition. This is reflected in the corporate philosophy of the entire group and shapes the way agents conduct themselves, the values they live by and the pride they feel in the brand. Kaine is adamant that it's not always about closing the deal - it's about providing the best possible advice, the most courteous and professional service and tailoring a plan that suits each individual client.

Vanessa and her team were outstanding from start to finish.

Vanessa and her team were outstanding from start to finish. As soon as I decided to sell, they took control of the entire process and made sure no stone was left unturned. Vanessa’s knowledge of the market was exceptional, and her guidance gave me real confidence every step of the way. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Vanessa and her team at Belle Property Cairns.

Highly recommended

I was looking for a Real Estate agent who understood how to market and sell a quality home. Vanessa was the point person for the entire process from introduction to settlement. Vanessa provided advice and guidance however she also understood that it was my property and listened to my requirements. The property sold 8-days after the first open home, for more than the asking price. I would highly recommend Vanessa.
