Starting out in client service in the prestige car industry, Hilary Makings developed an appreciation for the finer things in life, and a real respect for the hard work needed to a achieve them. Measured, methodical and mature beyond her years, Hilary understands the effort required to undertake an investment in property …and brings that same effort everyday to the management of her clients’ assets.

Strategic in thinking, precise by nature and focused on packing the most into her day, Hilary is an expert time manager who ensures no moment is wasted as she works towards an above-expectation result for her clients. Hilary’s working day is built on precision timing and a precise vision of the necessary outcome, as she prioritises the most urgent matters, focuses on the finest detail, and safeguards the big picture view her clients hold for their most significant investment.

An adept communicator who revels in the role of ‘middleman’ between renter and property owner, Hilary’s first priority is to maintain open channels and on build goodwill. By communicating clearly and openly with both parties, she finds a middle path that keeps everyone happy and satisfied. In fact, she says, most often landlords and tenants are on the same path to the same end; a well-maintained home for a happy tenant and a well-protected asset for the careful investor.

Raised and educated in the local area, Hilary is a high-achiever inside and out of work. It’s no surprise that her choice of sport, Equestrian Eventing, also requires a precise and measured approach. Competing at a national level in this multi-discipline sport, Hilary takes high-pressure dressage, jumping and cross-country events in her stride. It’s an effort that makes managing maintenance contractors, lease contracts, tenants’ demands and landlords’ concerns look easy!
