Carrie Bond
founder, Bond Lifestyle Properties
“I hand-picked every person on my team because they have something very special about them. They won’t just sell or find your perfect property, but also enhance your life.”
Carrie Bond is the go-to Sales Executive on the South Coast for high-end homes with unique selling points, which frequently fly off the market thanks to her local knowledge, extensive contact book and wealth of experience. As part of a number of award-winning sales teams, Carrie has represented a wide range of properties across the Illawarra and NSW South Coast: from luxury farm escapes to beachside penthouses, modern developments and Heritage-protected properties. She works closely with vendors to uncover the story behind their home and to showcase the dream lifestyle or business opportunity it has to offer.
Born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts, the regional area inspired her early love of architecture and design. With academic achievements in science, life science, agriculture and business, she is both a creative and strategic thinker. This, coupled with a background in hospitality, means Carrie knows how to showcase your property at its best and attract crowds to every viewing.
From styling and photography, to viewings and negotiations, Carrie supports vendors through every stage of the selling process, ensuring they shine a spotlight on their property’s best features and the highlights of the local area — an area she genuinely loves.
In 2021, Carrie launched Bond Lifestyle Properties to offer a focused and personalised service — an agency where every home is a priority and every vendor feels supported, listened to and overjoyed with their result.
