Meet the Redlands Mums Taking Control of Their Real Estate Careers

From juggling kids to launching new careers — how two Redlands women found freedom in real estate.

Starting strong, without giving it all away.

If you’re thinking about getting into real estate, you might assume the only way in is to join a traditional agency, hand over most of your commission and start at the bottom.

Not anymore.

Katie Higgs and Danielle Peterson are both mums from the Redlands who recently stepped into real estate for the first time. But they didn’t want to build someone else’s business. They wanted to grow their own.

That’s why they joined Freedom Property straight away — choosing a model that gave them full support, high commission and the tools to grow their personal brands from day one.

Katie Higgs: Building a Business from Experience

Redlands local Katie Higgs knows property from the inside out. As the wife of a local builder and a mum of three, she’s spent years immersed in building, renovating and selling — long before getting her real estate licence.

She knew it was time to turn that experience into a career. But she didn’t want to sign away her freedom—or her income—to someone else’s brand.

“I love the flexibility that Freedom offers. It allows me to balance my family life and my career without compromising on either.”

Now, she’s helping others buy and sell in the Bayside — with full control over her schedule, commissions and profile. 

Danielle Peterson: Business Brain Meets Property Passion

Danielle Peterson brings a business and marketing background to her new role in real estate, with a strong focus on presenting homes to stand out and sell fast.

Also a Redlands mum, Danielle was ready for a new challenge — but she wanted it on her own terms. 

“Freedom has empowered me to take control of my career. I can now focus on delivering exceptional service to my clients while also being there for my family.”

With her keen eye for detail and polished marketing skills, Danielle is set to make her mark — without sacrificing time with her family or sharing commission with a boss. 

Real estate doesn’t have to look like it used to!

Katie and Danielle didn’t follow the old path into real estate — they chose a better one.

They didn’t want to climb someone else’s ladder. They’re building their own. 

With the right platform, training and support, they’ve been able to hit the ground running in a brand-new career, earning more and working smarter from the start.
