About Maddison
In October 2008 Maddison commenced her career in Real Estate. Beginning in administration and working her way up to becoming our marketing manager, Maddison has been a valued team member throughout her time at Ray White. In September 2013, Maddison took on a role in which she considered would be the most challenging but exciting & rewarding step of her career, selling Property. Maddison quickly became one of the few agents to achieve the Alan White Premier Status so early on in her Sales Career selling over 53 properties in the first 12 months out on her own. In 2015, with plans to open up her own Real Estate business one day, Maddison was offered a position amongst some of Ray White’s most experienced and well-respected members with the Ray White Corporate team in Ray White’s head office in Southbank, Melbourne. During her time at Ray White Corporate, Maddison rubbed shoulders with business owners, elite sales agents and worked closely with the CEO of Ray White Victoria/Tasmania & CEO of Loan Market Victoria/Tasmania. Maddison learnt what it takes to run a great Real Estate business and plans to implement the valuable lessons she learnt into her own Real Estate business one day. In 2016, Maddison returned to property sales in her local area in Geelong’s Northern Suburbs. As a driven, young, award winning agent she believes selling property is right where she needs to be. From starting out with Ray White, Maddison has watched and assisted her fellow colleague’s take their clients through what could be the biggest transaction of their lives, selling their largest asset- their home. Maddison has grown up in a family full of Real Estate experts, so you could say selling Property is in her blood. Maddison believes that her Gen Y tech-savvy experience in Marketing/Property Sales for the last 8 years mixed with Ray White’s leading edge technology & advanced marketing solutions will be unstoppable when it comes to putting your property out to the Market. She prides herself on her outstanding customer service and attention to detail when it comes to receiving a quality experience dealing with Ray White Northern Suburbs & will tailor your experience with herself individually to suit your person needs.

A Breath of Fresh Air!

Our experience with Matt was amazing especially after we had a not too favourable journey with another agent. Matt came in and managed our whole sale within the 30 day campaign which was needed after a long drawn out process with the other agent. His professionalism, local knowledge, support, guidance is of the highest level and our only regret with our sale was not chosen him first. Matt is an asset to the team at Ray White and the Lara community is very lucky to have an agent like Matt servicing the area. We also would like to thank Emma for all the work she put into our sale.

Bought amd sold the house with Terry

We bought our house with Terry, and sold with Terry which says alot. I loved that Terry spent time with us, talking through options markets, even a bit of garden advice to get the property ready. Feeback after the open houses, there is a reason he has been in the business so long.

Amazing support and wealth of knowledge, highly recommended!

Matt was amazing from start to finish. We couldnt have asked for a better experience. He was a wealth of knowledge on the local area and market, his communication was impeccable and he was approable to answer all our questions about our sale and subsequent purchase. Highly recommended. We'd give above 10/10 if it were possible!
