Wendy Chatto, Partner And Property Manager Leader At Hugh Reilly Real Estate

When it comes to property management in Mackay, Wendy Chatto doesn’t just do the job. She lives it. As Partner and Property Management Leader at Hugh Reilly Real Estate, Wendy has spent over 30 years turning the challenges of property management into opportunities to connect with people, solve problems, and deliver results with integrity.

Wendy’s journey into real estate began in 1991. Originally working for the council in Bowen, an unexpected opportunity in real estate presented itself, and she embraced it, sparking a career that has spanned more than 30 years across Mackay and the Whitsundays. Her experience covers every aspect of property management. With Wendy’s extensive knowledge of legislation landlords are confident that their property is a true investment for the future.

“Every day is different,” Wendy says.

“There never seems to be enough hours in the day, but I do what I do because I love talking to people and helping solve the challenges that arise to ensure landlord investments are cared for and developed. Many landlords choose to add properties to their investment portfolio when managed well”

In October 2022, Wendy’s commitment to property management deepened when she became a partner at Hugh Reilly Real Estate. Her organised approach, combined with sharp attention to detail, allows her to deliver for landlords while ensuring tenants are treated fairly and professionally.

Wendy’s connection to the team is equally strong on a personal level. Her friendship with Business Partner Josey spans more than 30 years, predating their professional collaboration at Hugh Reilly Real Estate. Her daughter Dallis has also been part of the team, further reflecting the family-oriented nature of the business. Within the office, Wendy is known for her calm, stress-free, and straight-forward approach, making her a trusted figure for both colleagues and clients.

Outside of work, Wendy embraces her passions with the same dedication she brings to property management. A keen gardener, she enjoys nurturing her green thumb and spending time with her furry companions. She also lives by the motto, “Don’t stress,” a philosophy she applies both in life and in the ever-challenging world of property management.

Wendy’s impact is felt not only through her professional achievements but also through the strong relationships she builds with landlords, tenants, and the wider Mackay community. As a Partner at Hugh Reilly Real Estate, she is instrumental in upholding the agency’s proud reputation, delivering outcomes with care, integrity, and professionalism.
