Principal - Melinda Granzien
A proud Lockyer Valley Local, my life story is deeply connected to this vibrant community. Born in the local hospital, educated in nearby schools, and now a business owner in the same community, my journey has led me to where I am today, pursuing the career that feels just right.
My marriage to Danny has brought the gift of two wonderful children, and I fully embraced the role wholeheartedly – an ever-present figure at school events and sports days.

My Why
Through discussions with colleagues, family, and friends, it's become clear that there's a pressing need for assistance in purchasing property.
Whether it's Time-Poor Professionals unable to physically inspect properties, First Home Owners feeling overwhelmed by the process, or Interstate/International Investors needing support on the ground, the demand is real.
This is where I step in. I'm thrilled to extend my support and expertise to help clients navigate the complexities of property acquisition. Guiding them through the journey of finding their perfect home or investment property is a genuine passion of mine.
At the core of my approach is a genuine desire to help people. I'm driven by the commitment to ensure that my clients' best interests are at the forefront throughout the process. My enthusiasm lies in guiding clients towards their dream of homeownership or assisting investors in securing high-quality properties that align with their risk profile, budget, and timelines.
Past Experience
Since 2005, I've been at the helm of various businesses in the Lockyer Valley. In 2015, my journey into property investment began with the acquisition of a charming Town House in Bellara, nestled along the stunning shores of Bribie Island.
Witnessing the dynamic property market on Bribie, I wasted no time and secured my second investment – another Town House in Bellara. Incredibly, both properties have witnessed substantial equity growth in a remarkably short period and are currently occupied by tenants.
My third investment venture took shape in early 2020, with the acquisition of an acreage block in the burgeoning Plainland area. Even within this limited timeframe, the property's value has soared, reflecting the exciting growth of the region.
I did not stop there. 2023 I purchased a 10-acre property with plans to undertake large scale development in the future.
Whilst in the accumulation stage, my aspiration is to further expand my property portfolio, driven by the goal of achieving remarkable growth and robust rental yields.
With each property, I'm investing not only in real estate but in a future marked by financial success and security.
