Craig Gibson
Sales Consultant |
|
Bribie Island locals know us as a social couple that have been around forever.
For many years Craig worked at the local service station on the island, whilst playing rugby league for the Bribie Warrigals and Entertaining on weekends with his guitar and friends.
Whilst Vicki greeted patience at the Islands’ medical centre and later made patrons feel welcome at the Bribie Island Hotel.
Others may recognise us from when we successfully owned and managed the original coffee lounge on Bribie..“Madhatters”
And there are clients that will remember Craig from the 1st Class service he provided in his Real Estate career when he became actively involved with the Bribie Island market some fifteen years ago.
Their interest in the industry was originally sparked when Vicki and Craig built their first dream home at Banksia Beach in 1991 to welcome them as newly weds.
In 1997 Craig’s Sales Career was deferred as a growing paternal instinct took hold and the opportunity to tour Australia with Vicki and their two beautiful children Samantha and Bo presented itself. That unique opportunity has left lasting memories and a lifetime of lessons they all benefit from today and will for years to come.
Now as a well traveled and proud family, its back to work and the goals remain the same:
• To maintain a complete understanding of the local current market and it’s relationship to market cycles,
• To convey this to our customers and clients in a friendly approachable manner.
• To strive for success, secure trust and ensure repeat business by overwhelming those who have experienced:
”The Team Gibson / Harcourts Factor”.
It’s only natural to experience a small amount of apprehension whether you are selling or buying a home. Our aim is to minimise this apprehension by means of communication.
We believe that our clients should be treated with the respect they deserve and this ideology should ensure they remain ‘Clients for Life’.
Most of our clients look to do repeat business with us and are comfortable referring us to their valued friends and family simply because:
‘We got the job done and our clients actually enjoyed the experience!’ |
