Helping you to get your dream home | Rauhena Chase | Founder | Rauhena Chase Commercial Real Estate
As commercial property owners/managers, you come across road bumps which sometimes seem overwhelming. Your solution is obtaining advice from your own personal consultant who has broad industry experience. Rauhena Chase is a real estate professional representing Raine & Horne Commercial - Bayside & Brisbane Southside.
00:41- About Rauhena Chase and her journey.
I am an Australian/New Zealander of Māori descent, and living in Brisbane. My first introduction to commercial property came after being a stay-at-home mum for 12 years.
It began when I landed a receptionist job in the head office of a shopping centre management company. So, you could say I stumbled into the industry and have never looked back over these past 18 years.
I was involved in all aspects of shopping centre management with Retail First Pty Ltd, then progressed to an asset management role with Raine and Horne Commercial Brisbane Southside looking after office, retail and industrial sites.
These opportunities helped me acquire industry skills and experience which I now inject into Rauhena Chase Commercial Real Estate.
