A boutique, story-driven approach built on genuine relationships
J&M Realty was created as a boutique, story-driven agency with a simple belief: real estate should feel personal, thoughtful, and grounded in meaning.
Founded by Alan MacNamara and Steve “Jacko” Jackson, the agency is built on strong relationships, honesty, and genuine connection with the people of Mackay and the Whitsundays.
After years working in an industry that often felt rushed, transactional, and lacking the care and storytelling clients deserved, Steve and Alan set out to create something different - a calm, intentional experience where people feel understood, supported, and valued.
Steve brings decades of local experience, steady guidance, and a relationship-driven approach that clients trust. Known for his community roots and hands-on service, he offers honest advice and exceptional results with warmth and integrity.
Alan contributes strategic insight, people-first negotiation, and clear communication. His strong local knowledge and client-focused approach help buyers and sellers move forward with clarity and confidence.
Together, their mission is simple:
To deliver intentional real estate that moves people - emotionally, practically, and into the next chapter of their lives.
At J&M Realty, we believe great real estate is guided by intention. We take the time to understand what makes each property meaningful and translate that into marketing that connects with people on a genuine level. By combining thoughtful presentation, elevated visuals, and human-centred communication, we create campaigns that resonate emotionally and commercially.
