Buyers Agent
Mick McLeod knows Mackay. The canefarmer's son, former local business owner, dedicated family man, fanatical sportsman, and having worked for some of our most iconic local businesses, has local knowledge and experience oozing through his veins. Mick brings a unique skill set to Gardian Real Estate and our valued clients. He knows what these clients want, because he has been there. Mick grew up on his parents' local cane farm. He graduated university in Rockhampton (before there was a Mackay campus). His first fulltime job was as a labourer. His second was in travel (for Qantas). He then opened his own travel agency, which he and his partners built into one of the most successful in the region. In recent years Mick has further honed his sales and marketing skills within the advertising team at 7Mackay. Through his work life he has forged a close relationship with all tiers of Mackay community, from families seeking the best value holiday to the city's most influential businessmen marketing their brands. Underpinning this is a sporting involvement - both on and off-field - that has imbedded the McLeod name across sports including rugby league, cricket, horse racing, basketball and touch football. Beside him always has been his wife Kath and their four adult children. Mick has had a passion for, and involvement in, real estate for some time. Mick said “yes” to an opportunity to work with one of Mackay’s leading real estate agents, Ben Kerrisk. This combination has been a great success. Other than family, Mick lists his proudest achievement as etching a name among the thousands of Mackay people he has been involved with across four decades, as someone they can trust and rely on.
