Independent real estate group Highland has announced the merger with Raine & Horne Unlimited in a significant milestone, highlighting its commitment to growth and client service.

Mother-and-son business partners Jane and Samuel Schumann, who lead Raine & Horne Unlimited, have joined the Highland Double Bay Malouf and Highland Inner West offices, along with key team members.

Highland said Jane and Samuel were well-known for their trusted advice, deep local expertise, and consistent strong results, bringing over 50 years of combined experience.

“Jane, widely regarded as one of Australia’s top-performing agents, brings an exceptional track record of prestige property sales and an unwavering focus on client relationships,” Highland said.

Jane’s son, Samuel, comes with a background in marketing and was previously the no. 8 principal in the Raine & Horne network.

Highland said he would offer a “fresh and individual approach” to the sale of each property, combining innovation with tradition to deliver exceptional service to buyers.

“This merger marks a significant chapter for Highland, reinforcing its commitment to long-term growth, generational leadership, and a highly personalised approach to client service,” Highland said.

Samuel said that while real estate is a very personal industry, the merger felt like becoming part of an extended family.

“We are excited to partner with a company that shares our values of building lasting relationships and delivering outstanding results,” he said.

Highland Double Bay Malouf director, David Malouf, who co-directs alongside his father Bill, said the merger signified the union of two family-led businesses with shared values.

“Jane and Sam are a formidable team; they know this market intimately and have built their business on trust, service, and outstanding performance,” he said.

“This partnership brings together two family-led operations united by a shared commitment to excellence, professionalism, and integrity.”

Highland CEO, David Highland, said the merger would build on the company’s continued growth, fuelled by its strong performance.

“The addition of Jane and Samuel is a natural and exciting evolution for our team, not just for our Sydney-based offices but for the entire group,” he concluded.
