Agent of the week Real Estate FROM COAST TO

By Jo Kennett

THIS ISSUE’S agent of the week is David Stringer, the principal in charge of a great team at DJ Stringer. David has more than 36 years experience in the industry and has won a string of accolades including 2024 Agent of the Year and Agency of the Year Bilinga and Tweed Heads with Rate My Agent.

He is one of the top 50 sales agents in Queensland and DJ Stringer is a multiple recipient of the top 400 privately owned companies in Queensland. David also has a strong focus south of the border and loves the Tweed with its “idyllic coastline.”

WHAT MAKES A GREAT REAL ESTATE AGENT?

Be yourself, always try to improve regardless of how long you have been

in the business. Know the market and remain ethical at all times — even if it means a loss of business.

Treat everyone the way you would like to be treated — it’s a people business, so always remain professional and retain your integrity.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE PART ABOUT BEING AN AGENT?

Providing good customer service and sharing my extensive knowledge to bring about the best results for both parties.

BEFORE YOU WERE A REAL ESTATE AGENT WHAT WAS THE MOST INTERESTING/UNUSUAL JOB YOU HAD?

As a young budding entrepreneur and growing up in cold Melbourne, I made Ugg boots from shaggy rugs and

measure, collected cans at VFL Park and was also a paper boy.

WHAT’S HOT ABOUT THE TWEED SHIRE PROPERTY MARKET?

The thirst for property in the Tweed Shire is growing at a rate of knots and the Queensland border is simply an imaginary line stretching the idyllic coastline further south.

WHAT’S THE BIGGEST CHANGES ACROSS THE MARKET OVER THE PAST 12 MONTHS?

House and unit prices just keep rising based on pure demand.

HOW CAN PEOPLE GET A FOOT I ON THE PROPERTY LADDER?

Have their approvals in place, study the market and act with real intent.
