Image Property Agents Recognised in realestate.com.au’s Top Agent Awards Across Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast

Image Property is proud to see several of its agents recognised in the realestate.com.au Top Agent of 2025 Awards, reflecting strong real estate performance across suburbs including Brighton, Currimundi, Mango Hill, Dakabin, Clontarf and Lawnton. The awards highlight agents who consistently work within their local communities while supporting homeowners, buyers and investors across Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast property markets.

Celebrating local real estate leadership across Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast

At Image Property, we believe great real estate outcomes come from local knowledge, trusted relationships and a genuine connection to the communities our agents serve every day.

The realestate.com.au Top Agent Awards recognise agents who demonstrate this commitment within their local property markets.

Across Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast, this recognition highlights agents who remain closely connected to their communities while supporting homeowners, buyers and investors through changing property conditions.

For homeowners researching the best real estate agent in their suburb, suburb-level experience remains one of the clearest indicators of local market knowledge.

What the realestate.com.au Top Agent Awards represent

The realestate.com.au Top Agent Awards recognise agents based on verified sales activity within a specific suburb over a 12-month period.

Rather than broad regional recognition, the awards highlight agents who consistently work within their local markets and maintain strong relationships with buyers and sellers in the community.

Recognition reflects:

  • Consistent sales activity within the suburb
  • Strong understanding of local pricing trends
  • Ongoing engagement with buyers and sellers
  • A visible presence within the community

For homeowners considering selling or leasing property, these indicators help identify agents who are actively working within the local market.

Top Real Estate Agent in Brighton and Deagon – Kristy Kelly & Co

Brighton and Deagon form part of Brisbane’s established northern bayside corridor, known for its strong owner-occupier community and long-held family homes.

Kristy Kelly & Co has been recognised in the realestate.com.au Top Agent Awards for performance within the Brighton real estate market and Deagon property market.

Over the past year, Kristy completed more than 30 property sales in Brighton alone, reflecting her strong presence within this sought-after bayside community.

With more than 16 years working across Brisbane’s northern bayside region, Kristy has built strong relationships with homeowners and buyers while maintaining a deep connection to the local community.

Leading Real Estate Agent in Currimundi – Matt Nickerson

Currimundi remains one of the Sunshine Coast’s tightly held coastal suburbs and continues to attract strong interest from both owner-occupiers and lifestyle buyers.

Matt Nickerson has been recognised for his performance within the Currimundi real estate market, reflecting his strong presence across Sunshine Coast coastal communities.

Through years of working across the region, Matt has built trusted relationships with homeowners and buyers.

This experience has helped him develop a strong understanding of the local coastal market.

Top Real Estate Agent in Mango Hill – Matt Phillips

Mango Hill has become one of Brisbane’s most active northern suburbs, supported by growing infrastructure, strong schooling catchments and established family neighbourhoods.

Matt Phillips has been recognised for his performance within the Mango Hill real estate market, recording more than 30 property sales in the suburb over the past year.

With more than a decade working in the area, Matt has developed a strong understanding of Mango Hill’s evolving housing landscape and the buyers attracted to this growing community.

Real Estate Agent Serving Dakabin – Joel Clifford

Dakabin continues to grow as part of Brisbane’s expanding northern corridor, supported by residential development, family demand and improving infrastructure.

Joel Clifford has been recognised for his performance within the Dakabin real estate market, maintaining a strong presence across the suburb and surrounding communities.

With more than a decade working across Brisbane’s northern suburbs, Joel has helped guide homeowners through a range of market conditions.

During this time, Dakabin has grown into an established residential community.

Experienced Real Estate Agent in Lawnton – Scott Deaves

Lawnton remains one of Brisbane’s accessible northern suburbs, attracting both owner-occupiers and investors thanks to its proximity to transport and established amenities.

Scott Deaves has been recognised for his performance within the Lawnton real estate market, bringing decades of experience across Brisbane’s northern corridor.

With more than 26 years supporting homeowners and investors throughout the region, Scott’s experience spans multiple property cycles and changing market conditions.

Why suburb experience matters when choosing a real estate agent

Real estate markets are local.

Conditions in Brighton differ from neighbouring Deagon.
Coastal markets such as Currimundi behave differently from family suburbs like Mango Hill. Growth suburbs such as Dakabin differ from Peninsula markets like Clontarf.

Understanding these differences allows agents to guide sellers through pricing strategy, buyer positioning and campaign timing.

For homeowners researching the best real estate agent in their suburb, recent activity within that suburb provides valuable insight into who is actively working in the market.

Finding the best real estate agent in your suburb

When homeowners begin researching the best real estate agent in their suburb, they often start by looking at agents who consistently sell homes within their local area.

Across Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast, Image Property agents regularly assist homeowners in suburbs including Brighton, Deagon, Currimundi, Mango Hill, Dakabin, Clontarf and Lawnton, as well as surrounding communities throughout Northern Brisbane, the Redcliffe Peninsula and the Sunshine Coast.

Working with an agent who understands the local property market, buyer demand and pricing trends within your suburb can help ensure a property is positioned effectively when it comes to market.

Proud of our agents and the communities they serve

Recognition through the realestate.com.au Top Agent Awards reflects the dedication our agents bring to their communities every day.

At Image Property, we are proud to see our team recognised across Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast for the work they do supporting homeowners, buyers and investors.

Local knowledge, trusted relationships and strong community connections remain the foundation of great real estate outcomes.

These are the qualities our agents bring to their work every day within the communities they serve.

If you are considering selling, leasing or investing, speaking with a local real estate agent who understands your suburb’s market conditions can make a meaningful difference.
