OurProperty, a proptech firm for the property management sector in Queensland, has brought several property industry big shots as its new board of advisors.

The company, which develops property management products, has brought on the advisors to support its ongoing goal of becoming a major player in the property management tech zone and look into global expansion down the track.

Grant Harrod, the former CEO and Managing Director of the LJ Hooker network, has joined the board along with Chris Heller, former CEO of the largest real estate group in North America, Keller Williams.

Mr Harrod brings with him a deep understanding of the Australian and New Zealand real estate markets as well as the complexities of the public and private investment markets. Mr Heller offers a similar depth of knowledge in the United States and was recognised as one of the ten most influential people in the residential real estate field by Inman in 2017.
