People Matter...
“It’s all about building relationships” says Jodie who clearly loves people and revels in helping them make their next move easy. Jodie first came to the Sunshine Coast in the early 70’s with her family from Bondi, NSW and has enjoyed a charmed life ever since. With extensive radio and newspaper experience, she turned her hand to Conference Sales in the early 90’s for what was then Hyatt Regency Coolum.
Now in her 20th year in real estate she has evolved as a 60+ Lifestyle Agent and couldn’t be happier guiding people through the “Downsizing Process”! Often working with the baby boomer generation as they make that all important decision to change their lifestyle, for the better!
Jodie has become a reputable and prominent agent with experience in house, land, unit, 60+ retirement villages, and project marketing from $200,000 to $5,000,000+ properties, embracing every listing opportunity with the same enthusiasm and dedication. Her sales precinct includes Maroochydore, Alexandra Headland, Mooloolaba, Deep Waterfront Minyama/Buddina, and Buderim.
She is always ready to buy you a beveridge and have a chat about real estate and is happy to share the knowledge and experience she has gained over the years. Major lifestyle decisions call for this time and attention, to have questions answered and information gathered enabling you to move forward.
Early morning beach walks, reading and photography, time with family and friends, and a weekly game of golf at Headland Golf Course provide Jodie with a great work/life balance and a fresh approach to all real estate, with a special focus on 60+ lifestyle seekers.

Testimonials
"Trustworthy & Knowledgeable" | ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ | 20/21 The Esplanade, Cotton Tree"Jodie impressed me with her knowledge of the market and her ability to find buyers. She secured a price significantly above that of an independent valuation. Although I had signed only a non-exclusive l agreement, giving me the right to engage other real estate agents, I felt no need to do this. But what impressed me most of all, and which I really appreciated, was her willingness to supervise the packing of my personal possessions which had been left in the apartment prior to the lockdown."

"A professional & caring real estate agent" | ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ | 34 Kooringal Cr, Buddina
"Recently Jodie facilitated the sale of my mothers property at Buddina. Her advice and guidance resulted in a very satisfactory outcome . The decision to sell our much lover family home was a difficult one. It was critical to appoint someone who appreciated our properties features but even more important to appoint someone who understood and cared about the emotional needs of our family in particular my aged and frail mother. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Jodie to anyone who wants an agent who delivers in a professional and caring manner."

"Jodie is the BEST" | ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ | 10 Springbrook Grove, Buderim
"I cannot recommend Jodie enough. We were a particularly difficult case for Jodie with numerous hurdles to cross. Jodie went beyond the call of duty to help me sell my home very quickly and by the home I fell in love with on my first viewing. Jodie kept me positive, kept me informed all the time and was always just a phone call away. Thank you Jodie x"

"Enjoyed dealing with Jodie McDonell" | ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ | 17 Culbara St, Mooloolaba
"After purchasing a property in Mooloolaba late 2016 from Jodie [as the the sales agent]. We decided we would have Jodie act as our sales agent for the sale of our home in Mooloolaba. Jodie kept us udated after each Planned Open House and Inspection.
Through each Purchase and Sale we found her always willing to help and very easy to talk to. We would be Happy to recommend Jodie or to use her as an Agent if the need ever arises."

"Excellent agent - knows the market, great communicator & negotiator to find win-win outcome" | ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ | 50/27 Sixth Av, Maroochydore
"I couldn't recommend Ms Jodie McDonell more highly. Jodie knows the market well to suitably price and stage properties. Her style is very personable, realistic and compassionate, with a great capability to listen closely to buyer and seller needs and requirements, and to negotiate a win-win outcome for both parties. During a recent sale where I was the buyer, I felt completely at ease that Jodie would be up front with me about the situation, and would do her utmost to find a satisfactory resolution for all concerned. Living in the locality, she knows the surrounding communities very well. She also has great contacts in her professional network to assist with other aspects of the industry including rentals etc. I would certainly go to Jodie for any future real estate activities, and highly recommend her to other prospective clients. sincerely Helen Craig."
