Our People

Dean Parker
Owner / Managing Director
Dean is Managing Director of YSH, a licensed Real Estate Agent and responsible for the strategic and operational direction of the business. He has been a full-time property investor since 2004 with involvement in over 450 property transactions totalling over $160 million in value, including renovations, new property developments, a portfolio of investment properties, and rental property management.
From country Victoria, Dean was brought up under the golden rule of respect for others, a belief in hard work and a firm conviction to ‘do the right thing’. After completing a double degree at Deakin University – a Bachelor of Commerce majoring in Accounting and Management and a Bachelor of Science majoring in Information Systems – Dean had something of a bumpy start along what he thought would be a smooth IT career path. Over a period of just a few years he had a succession of job changes and experienced the highs and lows of progressing quickly through the ranks at IBM (from programmer to systems analyst), being headhunted, relocating to Melbourne, being retrenched and enduring an 8-month period of job seeking. He was left with an unacceptable taste of precariousness and disenchantment to which he responded by determining to take control of his future.
Dean began educating himself about property by reading books and attending seminars, with a view to using the proceeds of property investments to replace his salary. Inspired by the success of Steve McKnight, Dean, with life partner Elise, attended a one-day training event of Steve’s that became a turning point in their lives. Highly motivated, Dean and Elise took leave from their jobs to apply their newly acquired skills to renovating and developing property for profit. Their systems approach and diligence led to success and enabled Dean to transition from being an employee to launching their full-time property business in 2005. Elise soon followed, and they engaged their first employee in 2007.
Today, Dean is a testament to the execution of his successful property investment strategies and his astute management skills. He and his team of six employees renovate and develop both residential and commercial property, and operate a comprehensive property management business to ensure ongoing high performance of clients’ assets. Dean is passionate about helping people achieve their own financial freedom by sharing his extensive practical experience and knowledge through property seminars and workshops for purchasers. His greatest sense of satisfaction comes from seeing his clients – home buyers and investors – achieve their personal and lifestyle goals through property by making informed choices.
Your Style Homes lives by its mission, ‘Satisfaction Beyond the Keys’, with the objective of maximising clients’ capital growth and rental return prospects by creating beautiful, functional, healthy and wellmanaged homes, and ensuring client satisfaction throughout the process and beyond settlement.
Dean now lives in Brisbane where he and Elise raise their young daughter, grow their own organic food and keep chickens. In his spare time, Dean keeps fit, indulges his passions for football and tennis, and loves relaying the tale of how he came to spend a private half hour with the inspirational Roger Federer, a man whose talents, qualities and values encapsulate all he admires in a person.

Jacqui Battistin
Head of Property Management
Joining the YSH Property team in mid-2023, Jacqui takes over the role of Head of Property Management. Responsible for managing all aspects of investor and company property assets, from advertising and securing new tenancies to their management and maintenance, Jacqueline is also involved in overseeing the integration and systemisation of rent rolls and in building and maintaining strong relationships with clients.
A Queenslander whose beginnings were in Rockhampton and later Brisbane, Jacqueline knew from an early age that her goal was to perform well in whichever career choices she made, paving the way for her to become a high achiever. And her earliest career choice was property, starting as a receptionist with Raine and Horne in Brisbane CBD at just 16 years of age.
Moving into training, Jacqueline then undertook a Cert IV in this area with the Australian Property College and for a period worked for a training academy, developing and training a course called ‘A Kickstart in Property Management’, and also training candidates for the Sales and Property Management Certificate.
She went on to join another well-known franchise, LJ Hooker, where for over 11 years she established and managed a large property management department with 17 staff, earning national accolades along the way for her outstanding workplace performance. While one of her prime enjoyments came from helping others, Jacqueline learned the real value of a cohesive workplace and good communication to smooth business operations. At the same time, she managed her own portfolio of investment properties while also taking opportunities to travel overseas extensively. Her travels, she feels, not only grounded her and but gave her high-level skills in adaptability and in managing situations, difficult or otherwise, in both her personal and professional life.
Jacqueline considers her strengths to be her outgoing and empathetic personality, her optimism and her love of problem-solving and decision-making for the best outcomes. She thrives on ‘owning’ her role within an organisation, and in empowering her teams with the knowledge and belief that they are ‘the experts’ in their field.
In her time away from work, Jacqueline enjoys cooking, going to the gym, reading, spending time with family and friends and playing with her two young kelpies, Daisy and Dusty.
