This Buyer's Journey
For this buyer, it was more than just a move — it was the beginning of a lifelong dream. Having spent years living on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, she had always envisioned raising her three daughters on the land — surrounded by horses, growing food, and living a truly self-sufficient lifestyle.
The dream was clear: space, nature, and the ability to create a slower, more connected way of life. After relocating to the Northern Rivers and renting while they settled in, the time finally came to find the right acreage to bring that vision to life — land that could support a future filled with gardens, animals, and a home that ran off the land itself, I was delighted when she reached out to me to help her find her dream home.
How I helped find the perfect home
From the beginning, it was important that this buyer felt fully supported — not just in finding the right property, but in understanding the land, the region, and what her money could really achieve. Being new to the Northern Rivers, she wanted to explore a range of rural areas and needed clear, honest guidance throughout the process.
We looked at properties across several hinterland locations — including Mullumbimby, Goonengerry, Rosebank and Dunoon — and I gave her a detailed overview of what was available in each area and how they stacked up in terms of lifestyle, land quality, and value.
When we found this 32-acre parcel, it was immediately clear it stood out. It offered everything she was looking for — size, natural beauty, and the foundations for a self-sufficient lifestyle with room for horses, gardens, and multiple dwellings.
As a Stock & Station Agent and someone who lives on rural land myself, I was able to guide her through the more technical aspects too — from understanding the land’s water security (with a permanent creek, dams, and rainwater tanks already in place) to assessing the cost and complexity of services, access, and long-term use.
Buying rural property in Byron Shire or Tweed Shire can be far more complex than purchasing a standard residential home, and I find many of my clients deeply value the lived experience and specialist knowledge I bring to their search. For anyone looking to make a move to acreage or lifestyle property in the Northern Rivers, having the right support — and the right local Buyers Agent — can make all the difference.
