About Desley

Desley Shailer was raised on a dairy farm just outside Gympie, where she is the fourth generation of her family to call the region home. Growing up in a hardworking rural community instilled in her a strong work ethic, practical approach, and genuine appreciation for the people and lifestyle of the area.

With more than seven years of experience in real estate, Desley has built a reputation for professionalism, integrity, and delivering results. She combines her local knowledge with a passion for connecting buyers, sellers, and developers, specialising in everything from residential and rural properties to development opportunities.

Known for her honest communication, strong negotiation skills, and commitment to exceptional service, Desley works tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcomes for her clients. Whether assisting a family with the sale of their home, marketing a unique lifestyle property, or facilitating large-scale development transactions, she approaches every opportunity with dedication, attention to detail, and a genuine desire to help people achieve their property goals.

Many agents know property.

Desley knows property because she's lived it.

Over the years she has built businesses, worked the land, raised a family and developed a deep understanding of what property means to the people who own it.

That real-world experience allows her to see opportunities others may overlook and provide advice that's practical, straightforward and always centred around your goals.

Whether you're buying, selling or simply looking for guidance, you'll receive honest advice backed by experience, local knowledge and a genuine commitment to achieving the best possible outcome.

Desly works across Gympie through to Maryborough, helping people find their next chapter — whether that’s a tree-change into the region, a sea-change out, an upsize, a downsize, or a move that life has made for them rather than the other way around. Her favourite part of the job is the moment a client realises the hard part is behind them. Selling a family home, leaving a property you’ve worked for decades, or landing somewhere new and unfamiliar — none of it is small. Desly takes that seriously.

What sets her apart is that she shows up prepared. She knows the streets, the schools, the new developments going in, the council changes worth keeping an eye on, and the rhythms of the local market in a way you can only know if you’ve lived it your whole life.

Clients aren’t a transaction to her, and she won’t treat them like one. They’re someone’s parents downsizing, someone’s family arriving, someone working through a separation, an estate, a retirement, a fresh start.

If you’re thinking about a move — by choice or by circumstance, Desly is the kind of agent who’ll make the road in front of you feel a lot more manageable. Honest country values, seven years of local know-how, and a genuine soft spot for helping people land well.
