AgentS of the week
By Jo Kennett
OUR AGENTS of the Week
are Katie and Shannon Kofoed, who are ushering in an exciting new era as they align with the Witheriff Group in Pottsville.
The partnership brings together Pottsville Properties’ 30-year legacy within the local community and the Witheriff Group’s standing as a leader in premium coastal and beachfront real estate.
With local expertise and specialist market insight, the partnership enhances reach, resources, and opportunity for clients—while continuing to deliver the personalised, boutique service both brands are known for.
Now operating under the Witheriff Group banner in Pottsville, Katie and Shannon remain dedicated to showcasing the coastal lifestyle and delivering a distinctly elevated real estate
experience. We caught up with them for our weekly profile.
Before you were a real estate agent what was the most interesting job you had?
Katie: When I first left school, I trained to be a commercial pilot, which was an amazing experience, however back then growth for jobs in the aviation industry meant moving out to remote areas or moving to Melbourne to join the airlines. At 18 I was such a homebody and loved the ocean, so I felt that it wasn’t the right path for me, so I started working in our family office in Pottsville for my parents, and found that I loved real estate. It was fast paced and multi- faceted.
This will be my 18th year in the industry. Shannon joined our family business about 10 years ago and I quickly found that he was a natural in selling, but he really wore so many different hats in our small

boutique business from tech support to marketing and I’m so proud that we’ve been able to share this journey together and build towards this next chapter with Witheriff Group and evolution for our agency.
My dad (Roger McLeod) sold real estate for 30 plus years and taught us the traditional way of real estate. He gave us a great all-round education from not only selling residential homes, but to sell acreage, vacant land, commercial and developments as well. We believe this was imperative to our growth and we’re really grateful for his education and advice over the years.
Do you have any favourite type of property?
Our favourite to sell are homes that we’ve previously sold and the buyer has renovated. It’s really special coming back to a property and see their ideas that they

Shannon and I have always renovated our own properties and flipped them, so it’s a passion and interest of ours and it’s amazing to be able to be part of the journey. It’s so rewarding to help another family towards having their hard work pay off and sell the home for a great price to help them make their next step.
What’s the hottest segment property market at the moment?
In our Pottsville market, unit’s, townhouses and duplexes have been the hot property! We’ve been able to achieve record results (prices higher than COVID by far) for each complex, and we’re so grateful that our vendors have trusted our process to allow us to achieve these outstanding results for them.

demand from first home buyers and investors.
Are you seeing many first home buyers taking advantage of government schemes and how is that affecting the market? Yes, we’ve had the pleasure of selling a lot of our listed properties to first home buyers. These are always our favourite deals to put together, it’s a big step for the young people of our area, so we love being able to guide them and be part of the excitement.
Who are you seeing buying and what type of sellers do you have? We’re selling a lot of Burleigh/Palm Beach buyers moving down to our area to escape the hustle and bustle. Pottsville has always been such a great location for the coastal village feel whilst still being connected to the Gold Coast and Byron Shire.
