Unparalleled marketing
We combine our marketing expertise with an in-depth awareness of the most intricate details and major trends. We create a comprehensive marketing approach using print, digital and social media as well as direct mail to reach the largest pool of potential buyers.
Drawing upon a wealth of experience and market-specific knowledge, we collaborate with leading professionals specialising in photography, videography, aerial droning and interior styling to recommend the appropriate staging of your home to ensure that it “shows” at its absolute best.
Emotional connection
Our homes are our most valuable and cherished assets. It’s important for us to understand why you love your home as that will allow us to create a strong connection with the buyer.
An emotional connection helps buyers fall in love with your property and for the right home, they often pay a premium to get it because you have established the ‘dream home’ feeling. There is nothing more powerful at the negotiation table than an emotional connection and a ‘must have’ attitude.
The secret
Some say there is no recipe for success. We have a different option. We have a successful trick up our sleeve:
• More enquiries
• More inspections
• More offers
• Higher price
The ingredients are simple, however it’s our method and strategy that sets us apart from the competition.
Unmatched negotiation skills
There is a fine art in selling quickly and for the highest price. Like sellers, buyers are also unique and it is a strength of ours to be able to determine their property goals and highest offer.
Creating a sense of urgency, an emotional connection and level of competition will ultimately achieve the best possible outcome for you.
Optimum prices
Selling, just like buying a property, is one of the biggest financial decisions you will make in your life. When the time comes to sell, you want to get the best financial result you can.
Our main objective is to secure the best price possible for our vendors and we have the skills, knowledge and experience to make sure we achieve the best result.

Jess Hansen
Jess has extensive local knowledge, a strong network and is known for her personalised, professional approach and her accurate and insightful guidance to her clients. Her utmost dedication, integrity and ability to understand her clients’ needs has garnered her much praise.
With two University degrees, Jess is equipped with exceptional organisational and communication skills, as well as a sound knowledge of the real estate market of Hobart and surrounds.
“When first we met Jess she impressed us by her professionalism and this was evident throughout the process of preparing and selling our home. She took time and listened to what we were hoping to achieve and then gave us sound advice (she is very ‘up to date’ and knowledgeable on a wide range of matters). She genuinely appreciated the property and encouraged us to present it well. She then committed to doing the selling, which was so much more than open houses. Throughout the process she was available and helpful to all parties. Her communication skills are such that she was able to effectively engage with all the different sets of people encountered in the sale process whether they were the vendors, prospective purchasers, or the actual purchasers. Thank you Jess we cannot recommend you highly enough.”
Mary and John, vendors
Craig is a very professional and knowledgeable agent with great communication. Highly recommended.
“From the moment I met Craig, he supported me through the process of selling my house. Craig’s market knowledge and experience made the situation much easier for me. He often went above and beyond what I would have expected of an agent (sweeping paths, looking after things around my house). He was open and honest in communication, and it was clear he was working for me during the sale. Jess, who worked alongside him, was also outstanding in her support, market knowledge, communication, and work ethic. I couldn’t recommend Craig higher. A very decent person who cares about what he does and has the experience and knowledge to guide you along the path to get the best outcome. Someone who will go that extra mile for you.

Selling was made easy and stressless with such a professional approach to all aspects of the job
“I feel very lucky to have had Jess and Craig as my real estate agents. They demonstrate an excellent understanding of the housing market in their area and manage to combine genuine friendliness with the professionalism and knowledge needed to showcase a property at its best. From our first meeting, they were respectful and sincere. Their sales campaign and marketing material were outstanding. They gave honest feedback after open-homes, were punctual and respectful, and their excellent communication skills kept me in the loop and were much appreciated. I would highly recommend Jess and Craig as agents for anyone who is buying or selling a property in Hobart.”

Outstanding!
“Jess Hansen is an exceptional agent whose commitment, professionalism, and drive to sell our property was nothing short of outstanding. Jess is a very clear and effective communicator, and we were always very well informed, and felt extremely comfortable and supported across the whole process of selling our home. Nothing was ever too much trouble for Jess, and now in quite a challenging market, she achieved a remarkable result, very quickly for our family. Jess’s warmth, grace and knowledge was always assuring, and we couldn’t be more delighted with the outcome she achieved for us. Jess comes with our highest recommendation, and we would not hesitate to use her services again.”

Dynamic duo
“From the moment we met Jess and Craig, we knew we were in good hands. Their professionalism, combined with genuine warmth and enthusiasm, instantly put us at ease. They took the time to really understand our needs and concerns, and they were always available to answer any questions we had along the way. But what really sets Jess and Craig apart is their incredible work ethic and dedication to getting results. We were absolutely blown away when they managed to sell our house in under two weeks! We were expecting the process to take much longer, but Jess and Craig worked their magic and got the job done in record time. Not only did they sell our house quickly, but they also managed to secure a fantastic price for us. Their negotiation skills are second to none, and they really went above and beyond to make sure we got the best possible outcome. Overall, we couldn’t be happier with the service we received from Jess and Craig. They are true professionals in every sense of the word, and we would recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell property. Trust me, you won’t find a better team out there! Confidence level: High”

The best in the real estate business!
“Jess and Craig went above and beyond to sell our beautiful property. Their communication, professionalism and commitment to selling our home was exceptional. There was no stone left unturned and our home was sold very quickly! Their passion and dedication was second to none and we would not look anywhere else to sell our future properties. We are absolutely thrilled with the result and cannot thank them enough. Jess was always so quick to communicate with us about any updates - large or small. The property was in a rural area and they made multiple trips to the property for things like overseeing staging and photography, 2 open homes and another viewing for a private inspection. Their knowledge of the property and the area was incredible. We could not believe the images for the marketing campaign. The drone footage and the 3D floor plan was absolutely spectacular - our friends and family even rang us to say how awesome it looked. The way their photography team captured it, it could have featured on the front of a magazine. Unbelievable. We aren’t one to give long reviews but the way Jess and Craig approached this house sale, from start to finish, it’s hard not to outline all the details of the fantastic job they did. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is wanting sophisticated, reliable and trustworthy agents who work so hard to ensure their vendors are happy and providing them with a fantastic selling experience. I am amazed and so very lucky to have had this experience with them”

A level above other agents
“From our first meeting we felt comfortable with team Jess and Craig. Their industry knowledge was excellent, which proved to be more accurate than other agents we dealt with, the price achieved proving their knowledge. Both Jess and Craig had a friendly and professional manner throughout our entire sale process, with nothing too much trouble. We were extremely happy with the regular communication updates from Jess, always enthusiastic and knowledgeable through each stage of our sale. A great team with strong company support. Definity recommend.”

Top professional service
“How do we start. Craig and Jess went beyond being just our real estate agents, as we has a medical issue to deal with shortly after engaging them. They were so supportive the whole time, helping and advising us along the way. It was a pleasure to work with them to achieve a very successful house sale. We cannot thank them enough for their patience and care for us during this whole process. Top class real estate agents. We highly recommend them to anyone buying or selling.”

Thank you, Jess, for your dedication and outstanding work!
“My husband and I recently had the pleasure of working with Jess yet again to sell our family home, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Jess’s market expertise was instrumental in securing a great price for our home. Jess provided valuable insights and set a competitive asking price, attracting many potential buyers. Her impressive negotiation skills ensured we received the best possible outcome. Thank you, Jess, for your dedication and outstanding work!”

Outstanding
“Jess is an exceptional agent. Completely professional. Highly intelligent and knowledgeable of property; which in our position of being relatively new residents of Tasmania was very welcome. She has an incredibly warming personality and is always available. Punctual and very presentable, she exudes everything you want in an agent, whether it be buying or selling. We cannot speak more highly of Jess.”

It was a pleasure working with Craig
“Craig was recommended to me by 2 friends who had sold properties through him previously. I trusted his advice and felt I could leave the rest to him. He kept me informed all the way through and was courteous and friendly. I was delighted with how quickly the house sold.There were multiple offers and Craig kept me updated with each.I never felt “pushed” by Craig to accept any particular offer. Without any hesitation,I would recommend his services to anyone wanting to sell.”

What a team!
“Craig and Jess were fantastic. Communication was superb. Advice on preparing for marketing was excellent and all information was very relevant to the property and highlighted the many positive features. Realistic goals were set. The house sold in 4 days. The outcome was amazing and well above the listed price. Craig and Jess are honest and followed through with all the requests and questions. They are genuine people who genuinely cared. They were always on my side to attain the best outcome for me. I would highly recommend them to market and sell a property. I dealt with other realestate agents for the purchase of a new property. They never returned call, were not interested in showing me properties. In fact I was totally ignored by some agents. They were totally inferior to the Craig and Jess. Well done Craig and Jess!”
Kaye, vendor

Excellent service. Craig and Jess are a very professional and caring team.
“Having previously dealt with Craig and Jess we had no hesitation in again contacting them to sell our property. Throughout the sales campaign Craig and Jess remained consistently enthusiastic and very supportive. That support, coupled with their knowledge of the market, enabled us to get through the process as smoothly as possible. Their communication skills kept the road ahead clear for us at every stage of the process. Whenever a problem arose their knowledge and skill were there to guide us through. Their advice was always correct and we felt confident that the best outcome would be achieved. That confidence was not misplaced. We were very satisfied with the end result and would certainly utilize their high level of professionalism again should we ever again venture into the property market.”
Trevor and Robert, vendor
