This strategic partnership officially commenced in June, marking an exciting new chapter for both teams and their valued clients.
“When we first stepped into business ownership almost 10 years ago, it was with a clear vision: to grow a team of passionate professionals who felt more like family than colleagues,” Tara Hawley, Business Owner of Harcourts Unite said.
“Together, we’ve built something truly special.
“Now, as we take a step back from the day-to-day operations, we are thrilled to pass the baton to Robbie and the incredible team at Harcourts Connections.”
Harcourts Connections, widely recognised as one of Australia’s fastest-growing and largest real estate teams, has long been celebrated for its innovative systems, market expertise, and commitment to excellence.
“Harcourts Connections was the perfect fit to continue what we’ve started with our people,” Tara said.
“Their experience and expanded resources bring exciting opportunities in market share, technology, and support for our entire team.”
Robbie Lofaro, Business Owner and Principal Harcourts Connections, shared his enthusiasm for the partnership.
“We are honoured to be entrusted with continuing the legacy of Harcourts Unite,” Mr Lofaro said.
“Tara and Steve have built an incredible foundation, and we’re excited to welcome their team into the Harcourts Connections family.
“Together, we can deliver even greater value to our clients through enhanced expertise, support, and innovation.”
The collective strength of this transition aligns seamlessly with the Harcourts brand ethos of people-first service and excellence.
Andrew Friebe, CEO of Harcourts Queensland, said, “This partnership highlights the collaborative spirit within the Harcourts network.
“The union of Harcourts Unite and Harcourts Connections is a testament to the strength of our people and our shared vision for delivering exceptional client outcomes.”
While Tara and Steve Hawley will take a step back from daily operations, clients and colleagues can rest assured that they aren’t going far.
“You’ll still see us working alongside this fabulous team, now with more freedom to focus on what we love most: our people and our clients,” Steve Hawley, Principal Harcourts Unite said.
“Thank you to everyone who has supported us on this incredible journey.
“The best is truly yet to come.”
This new partnership promises to strengthen the Harcourts brand even further, fostering growth and innovation while maintaining its unwavering commitment to exceptional service.
