Tess Macdonald

Leasing Consultant

Tess McDonald’s talent for administration and organisation has taken her to some high-powered places. Stepping straight from school into an administration role in the United States Consulate. Now at home in the offices of Bekdon Richards, Tess’s talent for organisation powers a calm, efficient and always confident approach.

Drawn to the real estate industry by an interest in homes sparked by early studies in architecture, Tess has found her ability to assess, engage and build ongoing relationships has come to the fore. An excellent judge of character, whose first priority is to ensure a perfect match between tenant and property Tess is expert in building and maintaining the connections that maximise value and minimise risk.

Tess’s relaxed demeanour builds and maintains the goodwill necessary for a successful investment, adding genuine value to the process with a well-considered match between tenant and home. Tess’s management skills are also an invaluable asset; with a proactive approach that ensures maintenance is addressed before it becomes costly, leases are actively negotiated and issues are addressed before they become problems.

The same level of proactivity extends to Tess’s outside of hours work too. Purchasing her first property at an early age, Tess has thrown herself into the challenges of renovation with the same energy she brings to managing the properties in her portfolio. The result is a home that is uniquely tailored to Tess’s tastes and needs – the perfect home-base for someone who spends her time catering to the tastes and needs of her clients and their renters.
