When Jack Tobin retired in 1979, Alan assumed ownership of the business and has taken it from strength to strength ever since. After 35 years as the Sole Principal of WJ Tobin Real Estate, Alan has been joined by Craig Loudon as Co-Principal. Alan’s commitment to keeping WJ Tobin at the forefront of local Real Estate grows stronger and more focused each day and together this dynamic duo is unbeatable!

Alan brings a wealth of experience, a vast amount of local market knowledge and, perhaps most importantly, a genuine understanding of how our Business can achieve outstanding results for our Sellers and our Buyers.

The importance of a united and experienced Team is the basis on which our office thrives. Alan promotes and encourages a co-operative approach from all of our Team as he believes in the value of working for our clients as a united organization which utilizes the skills of all our people rather than showcasing any one individual. Our clients constantly compliment us on our unique way of engaging with them.

After 50 years “in the business”, Alan is proof of his own success. His longevity is true evidence of the notion that if you work in an area which you genuinely enjoy, you will never have to “work” again!!

Today, Alan continues to liaise with clients, but he is also always in the background, supporting and guiding our Team, to ensure that nothing is missed and that we deliver on all of our service commitments. He always welcomes feedback from our Sellers and Buyers and values every comment as an opportunity to evolve and grow.

Alan has overseen a major office refurbishment which has delivered a fantastic new and streamlined work environment.

Away from the Office, Alan is a family man with 5 children and 5 grandchildren. He enjoys both Rugby League and Rugby Union and is a Suncorp Stadium Member (never missing a Home Game). Classic Cars and Rock and Roll Music are Alan’s other interests, especially anything from the 60’s and 70’s!
