About Daniel

I began my Real Estate career in 2007 before technology became a major role in the industry. I was given a desk, handed a phone book and told to start finding houses to sell! Back then, we would take our own photos, put up our own signs and deliver our own fliers. After staying loyal and working for the same company for 8 years, I took the leap and started my own company. After interviewing most of the major franchises, we decided we didn’t see the point of answering to a higher power that didn’t understand our local market, and never being able to customise a strategy or campaign the way a property needed. I believe every property is unique and there is more than one way to sell a property. For the next 8 years, we grew to being the largest Independent Real Estate Agency in the Illawarra. I can honestly say, I am proud of what we achieved but can also admit we got so big, I had taken on a role I no longer enjoyed. After serious consideration, I decided to sell the business and go back to doing what I love most, focusing solely on sales and my clients. I have a passion for sales, and being the owner and licensee of such a large company truly takes that personal side of it away. So after 16 years and over 1000 sales under my belt, welcome to Ellem&Co!

Exceeded Our Expectations with Professionalism and Dedication. There is no other choice

I had the privilege of working with an exceptional real estate agent Ellem and Co Real Estate who truly exceeded all of my expectations. After a less-than-ideal experience with my first agent, I was hesitant to trust another one. However from the very beginning, I was struck by their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine desire to help me achieve my real estate goals. During our initial consultation, the Daniel took the time to listen to my needs, understand my unique situation, and formulate a customised plan of action. Daniel and Jess provided me with expert guidance on how to best prepare my property for sale, helping me to design the property in a way that would appeal to potential buyers. They also gave me valuable insights into the local real estate market, which helped me to set my expectations and make informed decisions. Throughout the sales process, the Daniel and Jess were always available to answer my questions, provide me with updates, and offer guidance whenever I needed it. They were incredibly proactive in their marketing efforts, using a variety of channels to generate interest and create buzz around my property. As a result of their hard work, my property received numerous showings and multiple offers within a matter of days. What truly stood out to me about this agent was their level of dedication and commitment to their craft. They were passionate about helping me achieve my real estate goals and went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of the sales process was executed with precision and care. They were always professional, courteous, and respectful, and made me feel like I was their top priority at all times. They sold my property in record time as promised (less than 20 days), and for a price that exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend Ellem and Co Real Estate to anyone looking for a skilled, knowledgeable, and trustworthy partner in their real estate journey.

An excellent agent who acts with integrity

My wife and I appointed Daniel to sell our property due to a deceased estate: we bought this unit 8 years ago for my father-in-law to live in. Daniel and Jess were great from start to finish, advising us on what styling and cosmetic preparations were necessary, and what they believed would have low ROI. They handled the entire process with sensitivity, and were able to secure a great result during a difficult time in the market. Thank you for all your help, Daniel.
