Professional background | Jerome is a fifth generation Tasmanian who descended from a Dutch sailor that jumped ship at Port Huon in 1856 and carved a farm out of the bush.

Keen to explore the world, Jerome left Tasmania in 1993 to begin a professional sales career with SalesForce Australia a subsidiary of fortune 500 company Omnicom Inc., the world's largest communications corporation.

R & E Green | "We were looking at prices of property at Lindisfarne Office, Jerome introduced himself and asked if he could help us. We explained our property was on the market with another agent and after 120 days we had not received one offer. Jerome asked if we would allow Petrusma Property to market our property. We liked Jerome's friendly and professional approach and agreed to a contract for sale. This was on Thursday. We arranged for Jerome to call on the Monday to appraise our property and agreed on a price. To our surprise a contract was signed and sold within 48 hours. So my wife and I would like to thank Jerome and the team of Petrusma Property for arranging such a quick and professional sale."

J Koop | "I found Jerome to be very professional throughout the negotiation leading to my purchase. However more than that he was understanding and compassionate giving me encouragement and confidence to continue and to achieve my goal. I had complete trust that he was working towards the best outcome for me as a client and have no hesitation in recommending him to others."

R Coulson & S Simpson | "We found Jerome to be very efficient yet sensitive to our needs. He took the time to make sure the house was settled properly. He made us feel comfortable without being pushy. We would recommend him to our friends if ever they need to sell. Thank you Jerome!"

J & R Tinning | "We met Jerome whilst purchasing a block of land through him which he handled very professionally. We told him that we had a contract on our house as well but that it was unlikely to confirm as the purchasers home had not sold after 4 months. Jerome listened very carefully to what we wanted, followed through promptly with all our enquiries, kept us thoroughly informed and sold our house quickly for a better price than the other real estate company and with a quick settlement. Thank you Petrusma Property and thank you Jerome!"

M Ricciardo & S Alexander | "The service was really excellent. We were extremely satisfied."

F & M Middleton | "Jerome could not have been more helpful or efficient. In our experience, the best."

J Blackab | "Jerome assisted us above and beyond that of a salesman. His help was greatly appreciated."
