It’s a family affair at the fledgling franchise on the popular Gold Coast, with a husband-wife duo taking the helm.
Stone Southport will be headed up by principal Aydan Mullin, who will run the operation alongside his wife Stefanie, with the pair bringing just shy of three decades of industry experience to the brand.
Mr Mullin has experienced a storied real estate career, which has seen him work at Ray White, First National, Harcourts, Savills and most recently at Republik Property, where he served as an associate director. He is a specialist in Main River sales, bringing a deep understanding of multiple local real estate brands — having set multiple Gold Coast street records during his career, according to Stone.
Ms Mullin also has strong industry experience, having served at Ray White, Mcgrath, Savills and Republik as well.
It is a career move a year in the making, with the pair first meeting with the Stone team in 2021 at a time when consideration was given to the pair establishing their own agency. The pair report that they were impressed during that initial meeting, particularly by the back-end support and branding that was associated with the Stone brand, but discussions stalled until five months ago when Mr Mullin reached out to representatives from the agency.
“We are really looking forward to being a part of a national organisation, and the support that has been shown from Stone’s whole upper management has been top notch,” he said. Before expressing his excitement at getting to work with an uplifting brand such as Stone.
Stone Real Estate Queensland founding partner Scott Kelly affirmed the agency’s excitement at acquiring the services of the Mullins, stating: “Southport and the broader prestige market are key markets for Stone on the Gold Coast as we continue to expand our presence in Queensland.”
Commenting on the agency’s latest office, Stone’s head of franchise Luke Cameron explained: “From our first meeting with Aydan and Stefanie in 2021 we knew that these were the sort of people we wanted to look after the Stone brand in the highly competitive Gold Coast market.
“Aydan and Stefanie bring ambition and experience that adds significant presence to Stone Real Estate, and we look forward to seeing their business grow in the coming years.”
The Southport office becomes the agency’s seventh in Queensland, following on from its Golden Beach location, which commenced operations in early August.
