The perspective behind the person
Leesa Hackett is a Brisbane-raised property professional with experience across residential sales, buyer advocacy and commercial property.
Having represented both sellers and buyers, she brings a broader perspective to property, with experience working across owner-occupiers, investors, rightsizers and commercial clients.
Her career extends beyond property, with a background across finance, human resources, marketing and communications in both the private and public sectors. She has worked in Brisbane, London and Dublin, including roles with Chase Manhattan Bank in London and Rheinhyp, the German mortgage and commercial property bank, in Dublin.
That broader commercial experience shapes the way she approaches property today: understanding not only the asset itself, but how it is positioned, valued, negotiated and ultimately perceived by the market.
Today, Leesa’s focus is firmly on the Brisbane and Gold Coast property markets, combining strong local knowledge with a clear, commercially minded view of where the market is moving.
