Monique Despot
Partner, Head Broker
Bondi
A property investment professional with a passion for service and results. Monique has 12 years of industry experience across a diverse range of sub-industry sectors in construction, projects and development and investment and understands the intricacies of the process.
Assisting buyers at every stage of life – first-time buyers, upsizes, downsizes, first-time investors or investors wanting to build a portfolio.
Dedicated and personable. Monique always places the person before the property with an honest yet optimistic attitude – offering value in communication, education, and authenticity. Every person/family’s circumstances are different and requires a bespoke strategy approach to achieve their goals. Not all property makes the cut when it comes to investing and neither does a “cookie-cutter approach to sourcing the property, as a “one size fits all” most often won’t achieve the best results.
Monique works with her clients to understand the numbers behind their property investment selection and does so with integrity.
“I don’t sell houses, my passion is to empower people to build wealth for themselves and their families and offer them an opportunity to have and make positive and impactful choices for their life that they may never otherwise have had”.
