John began his career in the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) where he developed a strong sense of integrity, then went on to complete a double degree in Law and Arts and further post-graduate diploma. After several successful years in legal practice John decided that his passion for helping clients lay outside the legal realm. John entered the real estate industry initially as a real estate sales agent, and then made the move to become a buyer advocate with Aspire Advocates.
John has found his calling in the role as a buyer advocate putting his focus on representing his clients with the biggest purchase decision of their lives. John leverages all his training and skills as a lawyer and now a buyer advocate to ensure his clients receive the best representation. John focuses on listening to his clients to ensure that when working together he is able to achieve the best possible outcome. John views his role as a buyer advocate as a lifelong advisor that can be relied on whenever needed.
When not searching for the next off market property John can be found with his wife at the local coffee shop or walking with his Rottweiler Mars while listening to a podcast on property investing.
