SOUTH WEST
agent profile
Introducing Jason Dragstra
When he first came to Busselton 10 years ago, Jason had no idea the move would lead to
a very successful career in real estate.
“I’m originally from Canada and initially my partner
Estelle and I were simply intending to wait out the
required amount of time before she could re-enter
Canada. In the meantime, we got married, took a
good look around, and said ‘why would we leave?’
“So we settled in and started raising a family. In
fact we’ve only recently gone back to Canada, but
just for a holiday, Busselton is where we want to
be.”
Jason found work as a car salesman, and a chance
encounter saw him move into real estate.
“I was trying to sell a car to a potential customer.
He didn’t like the car, but it seems I made an
impression and he offered me a job as a real estate
sales representative. The rest is history.”
Jason started his career at the end of the boom,
when the South West market had almost come
to a standstill. He says it was a difficult time, but
in hindsight it was the best thing that could have
happened.
“It was hard work, I learned everything I could
about the market, I followed up every lead, worked
closely with my clients to set a market-ready price,
and honed my promotional and negotiation skills.
There was no room for complacency, it was a
baptism by fire and it really taught me to sell.”
Jason’s dedication and perseverance made a strong
impression on the local market and he quickly built
a very successful career. He has been named
ACTON South West’s Champion Salesperson for
the last three years and has also received three
Silver ACTON Outstanding Achievement Awards.
This year he received a Gold award.
Jason specialises in the Busselton area stretching
from Wonnerup to Abbey and those who have
worked with him will tell you he has superb
communication skills, including an ability to listen
and a strong sense of empathy.
For him, it’s not about the deal, he strives to
understand the reasons behind the sale and the
motivations of his clients - they may be looking
to downsize or need more room for their family,
maybe they want a quick sale as they are being
transferred due to work, perhaps they want to
reduce their debt.
