Karen continued, "Based in Palm Beach, northern Sydney, Kevin and his team are perfectly placed to extend our high standards of customer service into Australia and New Zealand. As a company, we pride ourselves on the strong relationships we have with our owners and clients so it's a natural next step to expand our in-person representation into key markets around the world."
