Harcourts Scott Bay / Non-Principal Property Practitioner

More about Carine

Carine has joined Harcourts Scott Bay in February 2012. Having had 20 years of experience in local government. I have a great commitment working with people and will always do my best to accommodate potential clients.

Having known nothing about selling property I have learned rather quickly from my principals and other colleagues. In 2019 I qualified as a full status estate agent. I sold a few properties, both free standing and share block properties. It is in my nature to go the extra mile to make every sale as easy and convenient as possible for both the buyer and seller. Unlike in the past I now enjoy selling property and dealing with people.

We also runs a self-catering guesthouse in Pennington.
