Why Simon Abbott Loves DIY and How It Shapes His Approach to Real Estate

September 5, 2026

Simon Abbott’s hands-on background in renovation, landscaping and DIY informs his approach to property and investment sales in subtle but important ways.

Seeing Beyond the Surface

First-hand knowledge of structural works, value-add renovation and the challenges of delivery helps Simon guide both sellers and buyers—whether advising on pre-sale bathroom upgrades, landscaping to improve first impressions, or recognising real value and risk.

Property Knowledge You Can Trust

For sellers, this hands-on experience means comprehensive, reliable advice, and for buyers, greater confidence that property strengths and weaknesses are accurately communicated—not just ‘sold’.
