Sydney agent slugged $8k after sign stand-off and court no-show

The 27-year-old, who has attracted a large Instagram following, has previously made headlines for using luxury cars in property ads as a marketing strategy.

As reported by the Daily Telegraph, court documents showed an anonymous member of the community had lodged a complaint with Parramatta Council in May 2025 about the sign in Harris Park.

According to the documents, the person claimed that the sign had been erected longer than the 14-day period allowed under the council’s local planning laws.

Following two visits from a council officer to check the sign, Jahan was contacted by phone on May 21, being warned to remove the advertisement or face a fine.

Jahan allegedly told the officer, “I don’t need to, see you in court”, Parramatta Local Court heard.

Jahan’s agency was issued a $6,000 penalty infringement notice, after which the agent contacted the official to confirm the sign would be removed immediately, while requesting leniency.

The court heard the sign was removed that day, but the council rejected Jahan’s plea to have the fine reconsidered.

In an email, Jahan claimed that he had not received prior notice to remove the sign before the penalty was issued.

Following his failed plea, Jahan decided to take the matter to court, but reportedly failed to turn up to the courthouse on Thursday, 12 March, when his case was listed for hearing.

As a result of the no-show, Magistrate Stuart Devine convicted A-Class of the offence, carrying out development without consent, and confirmed the $6,000 fine.

Devine also ordered the company to pay a further $2,000 directly to Parramatta Council to cover its legal costs.
