FOUNDER | DIRECTOR

With over two decades of experience spanning real estate, enterprise sales, and founding his own market leading technology company, Douglas Hastings brings a rare blend of strategic thinking, market insight, and relentless tenacity to every property transaction.

As the founder of HASTINGS BEAUMONT, Doug leads a boutique buyer’s agency defined by strategy, integrity, and results—helping homebuyers and investors navigate Queensland’s property market with clarity and confidence.

Before returning to his roots in real estate, Doug spent over a decade building and scaling his own multi-million dollar software company, HINDSITE Industries—a service delivery technology platform that continues to support global leaders across mining, manufacturing, utilities, government, and aerospace. He successfully raised and deployed multimillion-dollar investment rounds, led high-performing teams, and negotiated high-stakes enterprise deals. The same strategic mindset and executive capability now power his approach to property.

Doug’s real estate career began in the Wide Bay region in the early 2000s, quickly rising to become one of the region’s top-performing agents. He specialised in on, pre and off-market deals, commercial land releases, and premium residential sub-division sales—delivering standout results before the age of 25. With firsthand experience across every stage of the property cycle, Doug understands what buyers truly need to succeed.

He founded HASTINGS BEAUMONT after recognising a critical gap in the market: buyers were often left to navigate complex property decisions alone, while selling agents worked solely in the vendor’s interest. Determined to level the playing field, Doug built a service that offers expert guidance, discreet access to off-market opportunities, and outcomes aligned exclusively with the buyer’s best interests.

Whether you’re a first-time buyer, a growing family upsizing, downsizers looking for city fringe apartment living, an expat returning home, or a seasoned investor seeking high-growth opportunities, Doug tailors each engagement to meet your goals. His elite-level negotiation skills, sharp market instincts, and vast industry network ensure every client is supported.

A devoted father and husband, Italian motorcycle and car enthusiast, Doug’s unwavering commitment to client success has positioned HASTINGS BEAUMONT as one of Queensland’s most respected and sought-after buyer’s agencies.
