Born and raised in Proserpine on a cane farm, Christie is passionate about the Whitsunday region and during his successful 30 years in real estate has seen the region develop and grow, all the while maintaining it's charm and character.
After undertaking a degree in law and business, Christie returned to the Whitsundays with a desire to sell real estate. From humble beginnings as a sales agent in an office in Proserpine, he quickly realised his potential, not only as an agent but backed his ability as a principal and mentor, and purchased his first business, LJ Hooker Proserpine. Between 1987 and 1997 Christie became one of the most recognised salespeople in the LJ Hooker network. In 1998 he purchased PRDnationwide Whitsunday and Hamilton Island, and has grown it into the regions largest and most successful office.
Concentrating largely on development projects these days, Christie remains active in the marketplace seeing potential in sites that others may overlook.
"I believe that my greatest skill is in seeing opportunity - in people, business or property. I am blessed to be able to see things differently and then become energised and super excited about turning an idea or dream into reality".
