Introducing Matthew Clarken
Matthew Clarken has had a somewhat unusual career history. Born into a family of jockeys and horse breeders, Matthew had dreamt of becoming a jockey himself one day. As a teenager he started training as a jockey and ran a few races but growing to just under six feet cut his career short.

Still, Matthew says he enjoyed working in the racing industry as it gave him the opportunity to travel across Australia and overseas. Seeking a new challenge, he retired from the racing industry five years ago and has since been racing towards record auction prices and obtaining an ever expanding list of satisfied clients.

"After a lifetime in racing, moving into real estate opened up a whole new world for me. One of the greatest rewards of working in property is that I've been privileged to meet a lot of interesting people from all walks of life. I have also formed several long term friendships with many of my clients," he says.

Matthew, an accomplished agent and auctioneer, has lived locally for more than ten years and has worked in the area since commencing his real estate career.
