“I am determined to take the stress out of buying or selling and to do whatever is required to help acheive the desired outcome.”

Sarah Eckert

Sarah Eckert’s real estate experience is extensive and varied – a fully qualified property valuer for 10 years, Sarah left the workforce to raise her family and returned to real estate in a part time administration capacity initially and is now assisting our busy sales team at our Black Rock Office. “I am a people person first and foremost,” says Sarah. “I am determined to take the stress out of buying or selling and to do whatever is required to help acheive the desired outcome. I am also able to draw on my excellent understanding of the local area, having lived in Beaumaris my entire life.”

Sarah has a natural ability to put people at ease; her warm, effective and honest communication skills, along with her high level of integrity, help make the sales experience an enjoyable one for Chisholm & Gamon clients. In addition, her strong affiliation to the Bayside area makes her a standout for being able to give genuine testament to the benefits of the Bayside lifestyle.

When not helping match people to their dream property, Sarah is kept busy with her husband and three children, entertaining friends and family at home and taking the family dog for walks.

Chisholm & Gamon Property delivers premium results throughout Bayside and beyond. With offices in Black Rock, Elwood, Mount Martha and Port Melbourne, we focus on customer satisfaction and personal integrity.

Sarah Eckert is a dynamic part of this team.

Superior communication is the absolute key to Sophia Thomas’ success as a Property Manager and, combined with over 3 years’ experience, is central to the excellent property management skills she brings to Chisholm & Gamon.

With a calm and considered nature, Sophia very quickly builds a trusted rapport with landlords and tenants alike and offers practical and positive solutions to the myriad challenges that each week can present.

One of the main components that Sophia enjoys about her role is that every day is different to the next, with stimulation coming by way of a “tricky” issue that requires extensive research into the Residential Tenancies Act or marketing a uniquely designed property – or by simply meeting interesting people and assisting them in finding their new home.

Away from the office Sophia enjoys working through the pile of books on her bedside table, and spending time with her family and friends.

Chisholm & Gamon Property delivers premium results throughout Bayside and beyond. With offices in Elwood, Black Rock, Mt Martha and Port Melbourne, we focus on customer satisfaction and personal integrity.

Sophia Thomas is a dynamic part of this team.
