Christine Shaw has sold 18 properties in the last 12 months. On average, these properties were advertised on Allhomes for 26 days.

"If you love what you're doing in your job, you'll never feel like you're working a day in your life" is so very relevant for me. I simply love helping people sell their home or investment property. The two repeat compliments I receive is that I am different, and I don't sound like any other agent. Some might say I am a square peg in a round hole. I love those compliments, and if you've met me at an open house and thought this, your first impression is right - that's me !

What you see is what you get - no prepared scripts or pressure tactics. I will tell you to not sell if I think it is the right decision, and give you renovation ideas instead. Work colleagues and community members I have worked with over the last 40+ years will tell you I am genuine, trustworthy, loyal, enthusiastic and ethical - as well as a natural organiser. Nine years at Brisbane City Council, 5 years in the private sector, and 16 years in the Commonwealth Government working variously in human resources, overseas aid and multi-faith community harmony initiatives has given me a unique skill set. I go the extra mile at everything I do, your privacy will always be respected, and I am honest and frank in my communication with you - no tricks, no games, no predatory behaviour - and it shows in the results.

I've been fortunate to be a Top Ten Agent, and have received numerous awards and secured multiple government tenders. From 2012, my Investors Can Help project has assisted our ACT refugee community to secure affordable housing. In 2017, I became a member of the ACT Government's Consultative Group on Affordable Housing and Homelessness - and was finally able to merge my social policy background with my real estate career. I established my social impact model in real estate in 2018 - "real estate with a purpose"TM.   My work with Hands Across Canberra ensures that 10% of my earnings are focussing on homelessness initiatives, which is very important to me. I walk the talk about helping the community with my fundraising, and for the last three years have been in the top female fundraisers for the Vinnies CEO Sleepout.

Selling your home is not just a one dimensional step in any person's life, and I'm proud to be a unique agent who thinks and understands the broader issues, while still delivering fantastic results with my clients. My repeat and referral business is over 70% which is high in our industry - and the greatest measure of a successful agent.
