After graduating from the University of Western Australia in 1997 with a degree in accounting and finance, Allen progressed his studies with an Advanced Diploma in Applied Finance and Investments and a Masters degree and went on to work as a qualified CPA in taxation and public practice for a number of years managing superannuation funds worth over a hundred million dollars.
Not long after, the Global Financial Crisis came, and despite the severe downturn in the real estate market, Allen spent the next few years developing properties and being involved in land subdivision projects.
Having profited handsomely from his astute understanding of the real estate market, Allen then pursued his dream career of a real estate agent, applying his previous experience and knowledge to assist his clients.
