Jess Culling: Building a High-Performing Real Estate Career Around Family

Jess Culling, Newport real estate agent and Director of Place Redcliffe Peninsula, has recently been featured by Real Estate Business, sharing her experience of returning to work after welcoming her third child and continuing to lead at a high level across both sales and business.

The story looks at Jess’s approach to balancing motherhood, leadership and a high-performing career in real estate, while also challenging the idea that having a family should limit what someone can achieve professionally.

Just weeks after returning to work, Jess had already secured around seven new listings in a month, negotiated a $5.2 million unconditional prestige sale in Newport and sold a $2.5 million block of land.

Family and high performance can coexist

As a mother of three and Director of Place Redcliffe Peninsula, Jess believes building a successful career shouldn’t mean having to choose between work and family.

It’s a philosophy that also influences the culture she and her team are building across the business.

Jess is passionate about supporting both mums and dads within the team to build ambitious careers while still being present for their families.

The result is a culture centred around high performance, strong support, collaboration and family values.

For Jess, being a parent has also strengthened the skills she brings to her clients and business every day — prioritising, communicating clearly, making decisions quickly and keeping campaigns moving.

Backed by a strong team

Jess’s clients are supported by a wider team across marketing, administration, buyer management, sales support and associates.

That collaborative approach allows Jess to focus on strategy, client relationships and negotiation while ensuring every campaign is supported by a team working behind the scenes.

With agents working across Newport, Scarborough, Redcliffe, Clontarf and the wider Redcliffe Peninsula, buyer information and opportunities can also be shared across the business.

For sellers, this means their campaign is supported by more than one individual database or one source of buyers.

Whether someone is buying, selling, investing or simply exploring their next move, Jess and the wider Place Redcliffe Peninsula team are focused on providing clear advice and strong local support.

Local expertise in Newport and across the Redcliffe Peninsula

As a Newport real estate agent, Jess has built strong experience across premium, waterfront and lifestyle property, while also working with buyers and sellers throughout the wider Redcliffe Peninsula.

Her approach combines detailed local market knowledge with a strong focus on communication, negotiation and property marketing.

And while markets will always change, Jess believes experienced advice and the right strategy remain important regardless of the conditions.

For homeowners looking for an experienced Newport real estate agent, Jess can provide an updated view of the market, buyer activity and where a property may sit today.

For buyers, Jess and her team can also help identify current opportunities and provide insight into homes coming to market across the Peninsula.

A business built around people

The story featured by Real Estate Business also reflects the culture Jess wants to continue building at Place Redcliffe Peninsula.

High performance remains important, but so does creating a workplace where people feel supported to grow their careers while maintaining the things that matter outside of work.

For Jess, that means building a strong team around both clients and colleagues — one where people can perform at a high level, support each other and still have a healthy connection to family and life outside of real estate.
