Behind every great real estate brand is a story of resilience, vision, and unwavering belief. For Yong Real Estate, that story begins with its Founder and Owner, Peter Huang — a man whose journey reflects not just business success, but purpose, innovation, and giving back.

A Vision Born from Experience

When Peter Huang first arrived in Australia, he came with ambition, determination, and a deep understanding of how challenging it could be to navigate property markets — especially for migrants, international buyers, and those facing language or cultural barriers.

Rather than seeing this as an obstacle, Peter saw an opportunity.

He recognised early on that traditional real estate models were limited. They relied heavily on mainstream platforms and often failed to reach high-capacity buyers from Asian and international markets — buyers who were actively looking to invest, frequently paying cash, but lacked access to the right opportunities.

That insight became the foundation of what would later be known as Yong’s industry-leading “2-in-1 Solution.”

Building Yong Real Estate — From the Ground Up

Starting Yong Real Estate in 1995 was no easy task. Peter built the company from scratch, without shortcuts, focusing on trust, results, and long-term relationships. Every listing, every client, and every transaction mattered.

What truly set Yong apart was Peter’s insistence on doing more for clients:

  • More exposure

  • More buyer reach

  • More transparency

  • More cultural understanding

The result was a unique model that combines:

  1. Mainstream Australian real estate platforms, and

  2. Powerful Asian & international online, social, and print media

This 2-in-1 Solution consistently creates stronger competition, attracts premium buyers, and delivers superior outcomes for vendors — a key reason Yong Real Estate has continued to thrive for over 30 years.

Thought Leadership Backed by Real Experience

Peter Huang’s credibility extends far beyond transactions. As a seasoned investor and educator, he has shared his knowledge through books, including “4-in-1: No or Little Money Down”, where he outlines practical, real-world property strategies based on lived experience.

Rather than theory, Peter’s teachings are grounded in:

  • Market cycles he personally navigated

  • Deals he structured

  • Risks he managed

  • Lessons learned over decades in property

His writing reinforces what clients already know — that Yong Real Estate is led by someone who truly understands property from every angle: buyer, seller, investor, and strategist.

Leadership with Purpose

Peter’s vision has never been purely about profit. During the Global Financial Crisis, when many were tightening budgets, he established the YONG Foundation, a charitable trust supporting medical research, disaster relief, and vulnerable communities. His personal donation of $397,000 in the foundation’s first year speaks volumes about his values.

This same philosophy carries through Yong Real Estate today — success shared, not hoarded.

A Legacy That Continues to Grow

From residential homes to major developments, from first-home buyers to global investors, Yong Real Estate continues to evolve — now further strengthened by expanded services such as BESTTA Buyers Agents, offering clients strategic support on both sides of the transaction.

What began as one man’s vision has grown into a respected, multi-faceted real estate group — yet the principles remain unchanged:

  • Integrity

  • Innovation

  • Results

  • Community

The Yong Difference

Peter Huang didn’t just build a real estate company — he built a system, a culture, and a legacy. One that empowers clients, bridges markets, and consistently delivers outcomes others can’t replicate.

That vision continues to guide Yong Real Estate today — and into the future!
