About Alex
I have a passion for 'Maggie', having come to the island first in 1999 and being drawn back time after time until settling here permanently in 2007. Living and working here, I understand how 'island life' works and love to introduce new people to all that the island has to offer. Every home on the island is different to the one next door, making it my goal to match people to the perfect property for each individual lifestyle. Whether you are looking to buy or sell, I would love to hear from you. I have assisted many happy buyers and sellers and will answer any questions that you have with honesty and integrity.

Professional, Knowledgeable, Personable and Current

Alex is professional and no-nonsense sales person. She provided us with current market prices and expectations, and our house sold within weeks. Her attention to detail with back and forth conversations between potential buyers and us was exemplary. The buyers of our home told us the same and they felt no pressure of a quick sell by Alex. We highly recommend her for selling or buying a property on Magnet Island.

Sale of Island Unit

Alex has great local knowledge of the market and the pool of potential buyers. I would not have listed with anyone else for this particular property.

Well Done Alex! Experience counts!

Alex knows the Island better than pretty much anyone else in her business of selling Magnetic Island property. She has been around long enough to have met almost everyone who has had a thought about buying on the Island, and every property that has been, or is likely to be, offered for sale. So, who better than her to make the best match - on both sides of the equation?! We are very pleased with the way she managed that process in selling one of our wonderful Nobby Headland Lots at Picnic Bay.

Alex went well beyond the call of duty in helping us buy the right house on Magnetic Island.

My wife and I were in a difficult situation, living in New Zealand and attempting to buy a house on Magnetic Island especially during the various lockdowns caused by COVID 19. We were in contact with Alex for about 5 months. Initially by email we considered houses, and found her advice to be invaluable. She was not just seeking a sale, but genuinely was seeking to sell us the right house for us. 3 times Alex gave us “virtual tours” via iPhone of key properties, which was most helpful. Eventually we found the right house with her assistance. Being so remote from the Island, we asked many questions about Island life, and practical things we needed to know. Alex always answered our questions, sometimes by sizeable emails that would have taken her much time to prepare. We felt that Alex genuinely had our best interests at heart. So we warmly commend her to any potential buyers on the Island. Peter and Meri Armstrong Picnic Bay Magnetic Island

Amazing service, made buying a true pleasure

Alex, couldn’t do enough to help. Picked us up from the ferry to view the property. Could answer all our question. Provided us with a detail knowledge of the dwelling, and property. Nothing was too much effort even sending picture of power box for quotes for solar. Alex and her team are completely professional and prompt! Thank you again for helping us settle into new forever home

Highly recommended

Alex was a pleasure to deal with. Her intricate knowledge of magnetic island, depth of understanding of the market and experience in the industry was vital in achieving our desired outcome. This is the 2nd property on the island we have purchased from Alex and would recommend her to any potential buyer or seller.
