About Us

Who is Johnson Real Estate?

At Johnson Real Estate, we understand our business is not just about property. It's about people, and helping with their future. People invest in property for security, not for a speculation.

Operating for almost thirty years across south east Queensland, Johnson Real Estate has eight separate locations and delivers a suite of property services.

Wherever you are in your property journey, we’re confident we can be of value to you. Look forward to working with you.

Sales

Johnson Real Estate employs The Smartre Sale when selling property. What is the Smartre Sale? Simply put, it’s the best way to sell property in Australia today. The Smartre Sale proves time and again that it is the best method of sale when a property attracts multiple buyers, yet stands alone as the only effective method of sale when there is just one.

Over the last twelve-months, more than 10,000 properties throughout Australia were sold using this strategy. If you’re considering selling, take some time to see why The Smartre Sale may be right for you.

Property Management

The word ‘landlord’ conjures up images of wealthy property owners lording over tenants. In realty, the residential property investor is less protected by legislation than the tenant. Being a landlord is fraught with risks and challenges.

Johnson Real Estate has designed and delivers a 6 Star Level of Service to its clients (our landlords). This service ensures that your property and your financial interests are protected at all times. This is done through implementation of the right systems and training, whilst simultaneously treating our tenants with the utmost level of respect.

Commercial

With a dedicated team of specialists, Johnson Real Estate’s Commercial division can aid in sales, acquisition, leasing, management or development.
 
Whether your interests lie in Industrial, Office, Retail or Leisure, our team have developed strong networks across all facets of property.

The Smartre Agency

Smartre means Smart Real Estate. At Johnson Real Estate, we’ve adopted an alternative approach to most agencies across Australia. Our mission is to work with all of our clients and customers using strategies that are both ethical and effective.

A practice that is unethical means it comes at the cost of somebody within the transaction. This could be the buyer, seller, landlord or tenant – often due to manipulation, deceit or misrepresentation. At Johnson Real Estate we refuse to conduct ourselves unethically.

Strategies that are ineffective are by definition, fruitless. The strategies employed by Johnson Real Estate not only lead to outcomes, but to the best possible outcomes for any of our clients.

If you see the word Smartre attached to a real estate agency, you can be assured they too are striving to improve the way people work and transact with real estate. A lofty goal yes, but a cause we’re proud to be associated with.

Honest and upfront
Kaycee Simpson made the selling of our property extremely easy for us as we have not sold a property before. Her professional dedicate approach was refreshing. Kaycee was quick to get back to us with strong sold advice, she was honest and upfront with every detail. A big thank you Kaycee for your hard work assisting us getting our property ready for sale. Selling the property in 8 days after putting on the market. We highly recommend Kaycee Simpson from Johnson Real Estate

Seamless Purchase
What a pleasure it has been dealing with Tanya from Johnson Real Estate. She is an incredible professional. Tanya went above and beyond to ensure a seamless purchase on our beautiful unit. I feel very blessed to have met Tanya through this journey and would have absolutely no hesitation in working with her again and also recommending her for all of your real estate needs. Well done Tanya and thank you so very much.

Energy, knowledge and attention to detail
I recently owned an investment property in Flinders View for several years. As an interstate owner it was useful to have Joshua Schweitzer call a couple of times a year with a market update but without ever being intrusive. When it did come time to sell Josh was the logical choice. His knowledge of the local market was impressive and within two weeks he had my property under contract at our agreed price. Unfortunately that buyer was unable to complete the contract. “Don’t worry Ian. I’ll find us another buyer” Within two weeks the property was under contract again at a higher price than the original one. Amazing! Josh took control of all the negotiations, inspections and maintenance even liaising with the solicitor to get to final settlement today. With his energy, knowledge and attention to detail I can’t recommend Josh’s service enough. If you’re looking to sell a property in the Ipswich area “Joshua Schweitzer is the man for the job”

Caring and Considerate
We would highly recommend Rob Schroder and the team from Johnson RE. We had met Rob a year or so earlier when we were first thinking of moving and he provided us with an excellent package of information at that time including details of the locations where we were thinking of moving to. Thus, when we finally decided to put our house in Wakerley on the market, Rob was the first agent we contacted and we never looked back from there! As we are both in our 80s, we wanted an agent that we felt comfortable with. We found Rob to be very caring and considerate, as well as being very professional in his approach with attention to every detail. And best of all, within two weeks of listing, Rob had secured an excellent price for our property that exceeded our expectations. In summary, Rob and the team from Johnson did a first class job for us, they made the whole selling process very easy, and Rob was very kind and caring at all times for us two “oldies”.
