Mike Ashby - Principal/Licensee
For many years before becoming involved in real estate Mike was a minerals and metals trader. As a trader he travelled to many parts of the world and lived and worked in London, New York, Singapore and Perth.
Some twenty years ago he and Lorraine chose to move to this area and have lived here ever since. He and his wife recognise the bright future for this area and have investment properties in the Kwinana area.
International trade trained him to understand the sanctity and integrity of negotiations and contracts.
These beliefs have carried with him into the real estate profession. He thoroughly enjoys his life in real estate, which has grown rapidly over the past few years, assisting many people in the local area to buy, sell and invest in properties of all sizes.
When the opportunity to open a franchise office for Elders was presented in 2005 Mike and Lorraine leapt at it as it gave them opportunity of remaining with Elders and owning their own business.
Previously they had worked as Sales Representatives for another Elders franchise and they wanted to stay with the group.
His interests beyond real estate are reading, music and watching cricket plus, when time allows, gardening. He and Lorraine are vitally interested in the community and have sponsored local sporting clubs and schools.

Michael Coulson - Property Consultant
Working in the real estate industry since 2009,
Michael specialises in Parmelia and Wellard Village, where he resides, crediting his success to an intimate knowledge of the area and being extremely passionate about the real estate industry, finding nothing more rewarding than achieving a fantastic result for his clients.
As a resident of Kwinana, Michael knows the benefits of the area, being beautifully located between the City and some of Perth's best beaches.
Michael somehow finds time away from his busy work schedule to indulge in his passion of surfing, believing that when you have a healthy work/life balance you can always put in 100%.
A successful real estate transaction is all about having the best strategy to draw many buyers to your property, in competition with each other and having the right agent to negotiate the best possible outcome.
At the end of the day selecting your agent should come down to confidence in your agent's ability to achieve this and trust in that agent to provide you with the best feedback and advice to make one of the biggest decisions in life, selling your home.
Michael Coulson makes selling easy... "Let me show you how to achieve the best price from your market"

Ron Tan - Property Consultant
"From all accounts, to be successful, real estate is one of those live and breathe careers" and Ron Tan of Elders Real Estate strongly believes this. Ron has more than 20 years of experience in the industry. Although most of his clients are mainstream Australians, he has strong contacts with overseas buyers and investors.
Ron's experience encompasses a wide range of real estate and property transactions for clients; from selling prestigious homes in the Dianella Dress Circle and St. Andrews Estates to developing and off-shore marketing projects like the 93 townhouses in The Vines, and the 62 apartment development in Victoria Park, known as Burswood Gardens. He had sold his own business and now joins the team at Elders real estate Southern Gateway.
With his teaching and stockbroking background Ron respects accountability, integrity and honesty in running the business.
In terms of his real estate philosophy, in helping customers achieve the best results, Ron succinctly makes two points:
One that the customers' interest always comes first and two that his personal and business dictum is to help maximize the property wealth of his client.
