Jo Thierfelder is driven by a commitment to authenticity, honesty, and enthusiasm for real estate. With a degree in journalism and more than 20 years’ experience in marketing communications, Jo offers unparalleled expertise and insight to clients. It's this blend of professional acumen and personal commitment to sustainable living that Jo wishes to be remembered for in the real estate marketplace. She has spent most of her communications career working in the property industry, which gives her a uniquely relevant set of skills for real estate, marked by a deep passion for sustainability and community living.
Having lived in Margaret River for five years and currently building a home in Witchcliffe, Jo's connection to the area is deeply personal. She embodies the values-driven approach of the Witchcliffe Ecovillage and the laid-back, rural lifestyle of the Margaret River region. Her involvement with the Ecovillage, focusing on the sale and marketing of highly sustainable homes, aligns perfectly with her commitment to fostering a greener future.
Jo's achievements in the real estate domain include selling more than 230 vacant strata-titled lots in the Witchcliffe Ecovillage in just a few short years amidst the challenges of COVID lockdowns and market escalations. She sold the very first Ecovillage home to hit the market for $1.25 million; a signpost of things to come. Jo's real estate journey is marked by resilience and success. However, for Jo, these achievements are merely the foundation for a broader vision of enriching the community with sustainable living options.
Beyond real estate, Jo's involvement with the Margaret River Senior High School, the local basketball association, and the River Angels cancer support charity underscores a deep commitment to the community. This engagement not only enhances Jo’s understanding of the area’s needs but also strengthens the bonds with the community Jo serves.
In an industry often focused on transactions, Jo Thierfelder distinguishes herself through her genuine, approachable, and enthusiastic nature and her dedication to sustainability and the local community she loves. Her approach to real estate transcends the mere act of buying and selling, aiming instead to create lasting, meaningful spaces that reflect her values and vision.
