Maria Micallef - Trusted Local Property Strategist

I’m Maria, an incredibly passionate and confident Property Strategist (though I like to go by “Property Diva”) who is here to guide you towards smarter property investing by showing you what is possible.
• The reality is this: property is a great way to build wealth
• Here’s another reality: not all property is the same
• Lastly: you don’t know what you don’t know
I’m here to solve all three so you can make confident and clever investment decisions. I have a diverse range of experience across the performing arts, media, marketing, comms and real estate – all of which come together to create someone who you want by your side during the whole property-buying journey. A story you can benefit from
I’ve been interested in property investment since my early 20s. Yet, I didn’t know much at that time and unfortunately listened to the wrong people who had no experience or knowledge of the industry. This is what inspired me to become the Property Strategist I am today - I vowed to be the property professional that everyone and anyone could depend on. I now hold a Real Estate Licence and a Diploma in Direct Marketing on top of my Mass Communications Degree. I’ve also completed several Personal Development courses and am now recognised as an NLP Qualified Practitioner. But above all these, I am a property investor myself – so I know what it feels like to navigate this complex journey, and I have the hands-on experience, the property market knowledge and the strong network to help you achieve financial freedom and become independently wealthy through property. As a Strategist, I’m determined to be the right person I wish I had the chance to work with when I was starting my property investment journey. So, I strive to make sure that every property investor I collaborate with (both the seasoned and the aspiring ones) benefit from my expertise. My unique 3-step process
1. Discovery – where I take the time to understand your “why”
2. Strategy – where I come up with suitable strategies for your goals
3. Solutions – where I present bespoke investment options for you
With my positive mindset and commitment to exceeding expectations, I educate and empower my clients to make clever property decisions that allow them to live life to the fullest. Outside of work, I’m a proud wife and mum of 2 (3, if you count my cavoodle, Millie) – my “why” is my family. I’m also a performer (theatre, opera RSLs – you name it!) and even there I love to entertain and give people what they expect from a performer – hence the “Property Diva” title. In everything I do, I’m known to give my 100%, so you can trust me to walk my talk and fully support you across your entire property investment journey. If you’re looking for an experienced empathetic expert to help you navigate the complexities of the property market for and with you, let’s connect!

There has been so much change around property investing lately, and if you’re feeling a little confused by it all, you’re definitely not alone.

Negative gearing.
Capital gains tax.
Trust structures.
Buying new versus established.
What still works.
What has changed.

That’s exactly why I’m bringing accountant Michael Watson back for this webinar.

We’re going to strip it all back, explain what the changes actually mean and talk through what investors should be thinking about now.

No fluff. No scare tactics. Just practical information so you can make better decisions.

Yours truly was asked to emcee The Influencers 2026 event which is on Wednesday 7 October. Absolutely stoked and nervous being my first ever emcee gig, and truly grateful for the opportunity.

Award-winning business expert Pearson leads an incredible panel of speakers and it's events like these that excite me. There is always so much to learn, and then there's the added bonus of the people you meet in the room.

Business owners get the chance to meet like-minded entrepreneurs and expand their network as well as expand their knowledge of the world of influence and how to apply it to your business.

For me, influence has never been about being the loudest person in the room. So what is it about? Well these 5 speakers will share different facets of influence so you can take inspiration from any or all of them.

I’m chuffed to help guide the morning, introduce some fabulous speakers, keep things moving and no doubt have a little fun along the way. Here are the details to claim your ticket and gain a new perspective on INFLUENCE for your business:

Wednesday 7 October
8.30am to 12pm
Northside Conference Centre, Crows Nest

If you’re coming along, please come and say hello.

Another extraordinary awards night, and what a privilege to be in a room filled with so many high-achieving women and like-minded professionals.

It honestly felt a little like the Oscars!

But beyond the glamour and the awards, what really stayed with me were the stories behind the success.

Hearing some of these incredible women speak about the adversity they’ve faced, the complexity of running their businesses, the challenges they’ve overcome and what it has taken to keep going made the recognition even more meaningful.

Because behind every award is a story we often don’t see.

Congratulations to all the incredible women recognised. I think we were all winners simply by being in that room, building our businesses, supporting our communities and contributing in our own way.

And, of course, having a bit of fun along the way. Because you know I’m never going to miss that part!

Property investing has changed AGAIN! Are you keeping up?

Remember our last webinar when we unpacked the Federal Budget and what it meant for property investors?

Well, a lot has happened since then!

More announcements, proposed changes, backflips and plenty of conflicting information. Even I'm finding it challenging to keep up!

So I'm bringing renowned accountant Michael Watson back for another FREE webinar to help us make sense of it all.

We'll be covering:

* Negative gearing and capital gains tax. What's changed and what's staying?

* Trust structures and what the proposed changes could mean for investors.

* Tax concessions and opportunities still available.

* Where investing in NEW property fits into the picture.

* What it all means for your existing investments and future property plans.

Whether you joined us last time or you're coming along for the first time, this is your opportunity to get some clarity and ask your questions.

Because while the rules may be changing, your property goals don't have to!

Tuesday 13 October | 7:00pm AEDT

LIVE via Zoom | FREE webinar

Come and join Michael and me as we work through the changes and what they could mean for YOU.

A glamorous jog? Apparently so.

When a French roll is this good, you don’t waste it on one night.

Last night’s party face, Mum’s legendary French roll and this morning’s run all made it into the same outfit.

A lovely lady stopped me and said, “You’re the most glamorous jogger I’ve ever seen.”

I’ll take it.

My mum was a hairdresser in the 60s, and let me tell you, when she does a French roll, that thing is going nowhere.

So yes, I’ll be sporting this hairstyle for as long as humanly possible.

The face might need a refresh.

The hair? Absolutely staying.

Thanks, Mum. You’ve still got it.

What a fabulous day we had at the Celebrating Women’s Expo last Sunday!

And let me tell you, Studio (Stand) 54 did not disappoint!

We laughed, we danced like cray cray, we talked all things property and met so many wonderful women along the way.

I absolutely loved hearing everyone's stories, sharing my passion for property and having some really great conversations about what the future could hold.

A huge thank you to everyone who popped by Stand 54, joined me for my presentation or simply stopped to say hello. You made my day!

And to the wonderful women who joined me on the dance floor, you know who you are!

Who said we can't mix business with a little boogie?

What a day! What an atmosphere! And what a wonderful celebration of women!

Where on earth have the years gone? ❤️

I remember Kassandra's first day of school like it was yesterday, and now here she is, graduating from Year 12 and getting ready for the next chapter of her life!

I couldn't be prouder of the beautiful young woman she's become. Watching her grow, find her own voice, make her own decisions and become more independent has been such a joy.

And the commitment she's shown throughout her senior years! The relentless hours of study, the focus and determination. Kass, you've really brought your A-game, and I hope all that hard work pays off with the results you're hoping for.

Kassandra, you truly live up to the meaning of your name, "Helper of people." I've seen the way you care for your friends and family, always looking out for others, especially when someone is hurt or needs a helping hand. You have such a beautiful, caring nature, and I know you would make an amazing medical professional.

You've still got the home stretch ahead of you with your final exams, my darling girl. Give it everything you've got, knowing that your family and friends are right behind you, cheering you on every step of the way.

Congratulations on your graduation, Kass! I'm so incredibly proud of you, not just for what you've achieved, but for the wonderful young woman you've become.

I can't wait to see where life takes you next. Go out there, follow your dreams and enjoy every moment!

Just don't forget to come home and visit your mum! ❤️

There’s so much fear around property right now, and I get it!

Government changes, negative headlines, social media commentary. It’s enough to make anyone question whether they should be investing.

But hang on a minute!

While everyone is focusing on what’s changed, I’m looking at the opportunities that are STILL available, particularly when it comes to buying NEW property.

And there are some very good reasons to take a closer look!

* Depreciation benefits that can help your cash flow.

* Potential stamp duty savings when buying new.

* Opportunities to secure property in growing locations.

* The potential to build equity and use it to grow your portfolio.

My own property portfolio consists of new builds. I’ve seen firsthand how the right property, in the right location, can perform, and I’ve used the equity created to invest again.

That’s why I’m so passionate about what I do.

But I’m not here to tell you to rush out and buy a property just because there’s an incentive.

I’m here to help you understand your options, look at the numbers, do the research and work out what makes sense for YOU.

There’s a lot that goes into buying the right property, and having the right people around you makes a world of difference.

So let’s not get stuck in the fear and negativity.

Let’s have a conversation about your goals, where you’re at financially and what opportunities might be available to you, because in the end property investing is simply a means to a more important end.

You might be surprised at what we can uncover together!
