Former Screaming Jets drummer, auctioneer and sales agent Craig “Rosie” Rosevear has announced he is taking over The Agency’s Newcastle operations with his wife, Belinda.
The real estate power couple believe their local knowledge and decades of experience will guide their newest business adventure.
The Rosevears said they will be focusing on building The Agency brand and team in Newcastle, with the duo already in negotiations with key individuals who fit the premium property market they will be targeting.
“Having a background as a musician, I’ve always seen the power of working together, like being in a band. I’m a big believer in the old African proverb: ‘If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go together’,” Mr Rosevear said.
“We plan to build a team that truly works as a group and one that resonates with buyers and sellers of high-end properties. The time I’ve spent in Sydney conducting auctions for some of the best agents in the industry has shown me the high level of service required, and I’m excited to bring this to the Newcastle market.”
Belinda Rosevear focused on flipping Newcastle-based properties, while Craig Rosevear became a licensed agent and auctioneer in 2016, joining Damien Cooley’s highly awarded Cooley Auctions team. On top of all this, Craig Rosevear also became a TV presenter on the 9NBN property lifestyle show “Location...Lifestyle...Living”.
“Belinda and I have always been passionate about property, [and] when COVID-19 took hold earlier in the year, we decided to close Rosie’s School of Rock and focus on real estate,” Mr Rosevear said.
“Now, in representing The Agency in Newcastle, we are able to combine our business acumen from running the school, my auctioneering and market knowledge, and Belinda’s investment and renovation experience. We will be able to provide a multi-faceted service.”
The pair spoke about their passion for their local market, stating that the COVID-19 pandemic could spur new interest in the scenic town.
“We’re Newcastle born and bred, but having lived in Sydney and LA, we truly understand the unique appeal of where we live,” Mr Rosevear said. “In recent years, Newcastle has transformed from a town to a city and I’ve never been a prouder Novocastrian. COVID-19 has shown that you can successfully work remotely, or perhaps a hybrid of work from home and a couple of days in the office. Newcastle’s role as a satellite town to Sydney has never been more appealing.”
