Property Pacific Real Estate was established in 1995 to provide specialist sales and marketing services to the Management Rights industry. At all times since then the agency has been staffed by ex building and resort managers who have the Management Rights experience and expertise to offer specialist services to their clients.
Over time our experienced sales team has become a leader in the industry and has built an enviable reputation through unwavering commitment and professional expertise. With representation from the Gold Coast, through Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast to the Far North; Property Pacific is known for its professionalism, its sales successes, its knowledgeable, experienced sales agents and the ethical, educational assistance provided by the team.
In March 2011 Bob Love, a founding director of Property Pacific, decided to relinquish the responsibilities of running the business but retain an active role with Property Pacific as a Management Rights agent. The team is now led by Jan Grover.
Jan has a wide range of sales, marketing and business consulting experience. She has held several senior executive positions in the insurance industry where her interest in business broking and business risk management was kindled. She developed a specialist business risk management unit for a major insurance company before becoming an independent business consultant actively responsible for business sales, providing development advice to merchant banks, franchise networks and small to medium business owners throughout New Zealand, Australia and the USA.
In 2004 Jan and her husband, George, decided it was time to join family in Queensland and they purchased the management rights business at Eastlake, Robina. With her business risk management experience, Jan realised the potential business risk associated with the loss of rental units from the Management Rights pool so she took steps to mitigate this risk by developing a real estate sales arm to the business. This business, Bayview International, has become known for its successes in Management Rights sales, its support services for new owners and its ability to facilitate investor sales to assist existing owners to retain the strength of their rental pool.
Jan is excited about her new role with Property Pacific. She is committed to the existing team of highly-skilled agents and aims to build on the credibility and sales successes that Bob and his team have established. Property Pacific will continue to educate and support new managers and will use the combined expertise of the highly experienced team to offer existing managers advice on how to prepare their business to achieve best possible sale price and will take a team approach to facilitating Management Rights sales.
We welcome your enquiry and invite you to participate in our vision for future growth in the industry.
