Matt Bruggemann

Raised on a small grain and cattle farm in remote central Queensland near Chinchilla, I learnt the value of hard work young. Most of the work was done by hand, and I'd go to bed knowing I'd put in a good day. I bring that same philosophy to my real estate career. My interest in property showed early — one of my first childhood drawings was the floor plan of our farmhouse — and it led me to buy my first property at 19.

With over 11 years' experience and a background spanning new-home construction and land development, I bring a unique skillset — from recognising the features and easements of a block through to how a home was designed and built. Whether you're buying or selling, my focus is always reliable service and advice delivered with honesty and integrity. I've worked across some of Mackay's most desirable estates, including Richmond Hills and Shoal Point Waters.

I live in Shoal Point with my wife Nicole, daughter Isla, and our dogs Oscar and Bella. You'll find me running the Northern Beaches most mornings, playing squash, or gardening on weekends. I'm a bit of a foodie — I love the culture of a good dining experience and trying things I wouldn't normally eat. I have a soft spot for architecturally designed homes and restored Queenslanders; they remind me of the farmhouse I grew up in.
