Boland

Sophie is a Geelong local whose real estate career began in property management before she found her place in sales. Warm, energetic and highly communicative, she helps clients feel comfortable and supported. Sophie combines local knowledge with a genuine passion for helping people make confident property decisions.

What’s your personal connection to the neighbourhood?

I was born and raised in Geelong, so I have a genuine connection to the area and a deep understanding of what makes it special. It offers a balance of beach, country and city living that I feel lucky to have experienced firsthand. Through real estate, I’ve strengthened that connection by helping people find their place here.

What do your clients commonly say you do differently?

Clients often say my energy and bubbly personality make the experience feel more enjoyable and less overwhelming. I genuinely care about the people I work with and communicate openly with their best interests in mind. I want clients to feel supported, comfortable and confident from start to finish.

How has your career led you to the role you’re in today?

After finishing Year 12 at Clonard College, I began in property management while gaining industry experience. After two and a half years, I was drawn to the dynamic, people-focused environment of sales and moved into a role alongside Tony. Working with my sister Aly in sales makes the experience even more rewarding.

Why Buxton?

I chose Buxton because it’s more than a real estate agency - it’s a place where community, integrity and collaboration come to life. The team feels like family, and that support inspires me to give my best. It allows me to combine my love for Geelong with my passion for real estate.

Sophie was an amazing agent to work with. She was super insightful and helpful. I was a first home buyer with no knowledge of the housing market and home buying process. Sophie was patient and kind. She assisted me with every single step of the way. I highly recommend working with Sophie if you can :)

Sophie was absolutely amazing to deal with when purchasing our property in Highton. As we were from out of town, Sophie was brilliant in guiding us with the purchase. From start to finish we have had nothing but a positive, amazing experience. We will be forever grateful to Sophie and Tony at Buxton Highton, for helping us find our dream home, and supporting us in our move to Geelong where we have been able to start an exciting new chapter closer to our family and friends. Thank you Sophie.

Frequently Asked

Here to help

Your Buxton agent will cover the details - here’s a clear view of what an appraisal involves.

We approach appraisals as a practical conversations, grounded in real data, local insight and what matters most to you.

Speak to us

Your Buxton agent visits your property, considers its features, location, and market conditions, and combines that with recent sales data to give you a clear, realistic view of its value.

We analyse comparable properties, current market trends, and your home’s unique qualities. From there, we provide a considered range that reflects what buyers are likely to pay.

Not at all. An appraisal is simply insight - a way to understand your home’s value and your options before making any decisions.

Typically, we recommend an in-person appraisal so we can assess your property fully. In some cases, a virtual appraisal can provide a helpful initial guide.

Agents weigh factors differently - recent sales, market conditions, and property features. At Buxton, we combine local insight, data, and experience to provide a balanced, realistic appraisal you can trust.
