“

Christina & Grant are totally professional. This is the second sale they have handled for us. Nothing is left to chance. They 'supplied' the quality trades who prepped the houses for sale and oversaw their work. Really nothing left for us to do. We followed their recommendations and advice with results well in excess of our expectations. Should we have occasion to buy or sell in the future we will undoubtedly turn to them for guidance.
Brian Thomson
We highly recommend Grant, he has always gone above and beyond for us even in the most difficult of situations and has always well exceeded our expectations.
Christopher Bain
My experience dealing with Grant Penrose from Remax was exceptional. He sold my property in Boundary rd very quickly and kept me up to date and informed throughout the entire process. I would gladly recommend his service to anyone who requires a professional agent.
Dean Cooper
Let us also thank you for the fine work that you put into ensuring that our house was sold within my budget range and in a timely manner. Your efforts were most appreciated.
Darren Ho
We have bought and sold numerous houses and units through Grant and Christina Penrose.
I would have to say that they are not only the most professional and passionate people in their industry that I've come across, but I think their customer service, attention to detail and results would stand up in any service industry anywhere in the country.
Gary Bertwistle
Christina is a lovely person and her knowledge and advice prior to our listing was invaluable. We had one open house which resulted in three offers, one of which was accepted. We were extremely happy with Christina's advice and professionalism and we were very happy with the result she achieved for us.
Robert and Kristine
Grant has sold 3 properties for me over the years and that speaks for itself. I wouldn’t have gone back twice let alone three times if I felt he could not perform. I highly recommend Grant to anyone who is intending to sell because he will give you 100%.
Antonietta Rigato
Grant is an honest, helpful and reliable agent. Although we knew he was extremely busy, he always made us feel like we were his only clients responding promptly to all of our questions.
Philip & Lilliana C
From the very outset I found the service provided by Christina and Grant to be totally professional, friendly and positive, always punctual, always cheerful and always ready to go the extra mile. Doing business with Christina and Grant was a pleasure!

An inner-city lifestyle that offers easy access to all the best of Brisbane's festivals, events and opportunities - those living in Kelvin Grove will seldom have a boring weekend.

Kelvin Grove has become synonymous with the Queensland University of Technology, with the campus hosting an array of education opportunities from nursing to education and the arts. The university brings with it a selection of eateries and events, and students who are keen on the creative industries have simple access to Queensland's greatest arts precinct - the Queensland Academy for Creative Industries.

The homes in Kelvin Grove are perfectly designed and constructed for Queensland weather, and there are many busses travelling through regularly to make commuting into the city or Fortitude Valley simple.

This unique area combines ease of access and opportunity with clean, safe and upheld streets. Residents can often enjoy the benefits of inner-city living without the small houses or noise that many expect when living near a CBD.

With the option for unit rentals in areas such as Herston Road, or sprawling Queenslanders among the many leafy side streets, this area is suited to many different demographics.

Kelvin Grove is densely populated and central to everything locals could possibly need. It is a popular place to call home for buyers, renters and housemates, and has an equal share of infrastructure and facilities alongside untouched nature and parklands with the Roma Street botanical gardens close by. With the magnificent architecture of old Brisbane combined with modern renovations and improvements - the properties in Kelvin Grove are truly unique.

Beautiful old trees stand tall to offer shade and a touch of nature among the buildings, and those new to QLD will love the opportunity for breezes and relief during the warmer months in some of Kelvin Groves highest Queenslanders.

Work & Education

The Kelvin Grove State College is a popular choice for students from prep to grade 12, and the Queensland Academy for Creative Industries is perfect for senior students who are wanting a career in the arts. Professionals have their choice for the many different employment opportunities in the CBD as well as the university, as do casual workers and students looking to supplement their income.
