Two of Cairns’ most prominent real estate offices have merged as REMAX Powerhouse, creating one of the most experienced and productive real estate offices in Far North Queensland.
Powerhouse Property’s business owners Kate Fern, Meaghan Confait and Michele Annison, along with REMAX Real Estate Services Tony Williamson have joined forces to take advantage of the power of the REMAX brand.
“We see this as a great opportunity to expand in our market and elevate our business in the Cairns region with the backing of the globally recognised brand,” said Kate.
“As a boutique business, being able to continue to offer the individual service and support to our clients that we’ve been recognised for over the years, while being supported in our future growth is essential and we’re eager to build our business with the largest real estate brand in the world.
“We’re thrilled to join forces with Tony and his team, continuing to represent the REMAX brand here in Cairns within our newly formed REMAX Powerhouse.”
Tony shared REMAX Powerhouse creates an energy that combines the dynamic and driven young team from Powerhouse Property with his team that has decades of Cairns real estate experience.
“I’m excited to be working with Kate, Meaghan, Michele and the combined teams that will now be known as REMAX Powerhouse,” said Tony.
“The level of combined local knowledge in the office is outstanding and coupled with the global reach that only REMAX has, this will be a combination of strengths that will create a real powerhouse office, with me being able to focus on sales, training and development of the Powerhouse team.”
Meaghan said the chance to immerse in the brand and the benefits of being part of a network as widespread as REMAX, is crucial for the continued growth of the office.
“We want to see our clients achieve great results and see our team succeed,” said Meaghan. “The training available, the opportunity to leverage the brand, and ability to connect with the REMAX network will be incredibly valuable to our team.”
“The opportunity to work alongside and learn from some of the industry’s best, is really about supporting our team’s growth as much as our own as business owners,” added Michele.
“We’re excited to lead the office with the support of REMAX and build on opportunities here in Cairns with the support of the brand.”
REMAX Australia Managing Director Joel Davoren congratulated Kate, Meaghan and Michele on the launch of REMAX Powerhouse, acknowledging the significance of Tony’s influence moving forward in the business.
“This brings two well respected and driven businesses together with a client-first mentality,” he said.
“The Powerhouse team bring a strong focus on client outcomes and success, rather than just property transactions and I think this will be an exciting and refreshing option for people involved in Cairns property transactions.
“This is a dynamic leadership team that brings a wealth of experience, insight and energy, with a shared vision of creating an exceptional real estate business in Far North Queensland.
“REMAX was a strong performer in the Cairns market for many years, and we’re excited to see that momentum strengthen as these business leaders come together as REMAX Powerhouse.”
