Some define real estate as selling houses.

For Reuben and Tarryn Smit, it’s about guiding people through moments that matter.

As the Directors and founders of Scion Realty, Reuben and Tarryn personally lead every sale from start to finish. Clients are never passed down or removed from decision-makers; instead, they are guided directly by those accountable for the outcome — supported by a highly skilled team who ensure no detail is overlooked.

Together, they form a partnership grounded in balance, depth and shared values. While united by a clear vision and uncompromising standards, they bring distinctly different strengths to the table — a dynamic that defines Scion Realty.

Reuben

As lead agent on each listing, Reuben brings a strong background in building and construction, paired with a natural ability to see potential where others may not. His depth of technical understanding allows him to confidently address buyer questions, highlight genuine value and protect momentum during negotiations.

Known for his integrity-first approach, Reuben leads with authenticity, taking the time to listen carefully, advise honestly and advocate decisively in his clients’ best interests. Highly relational and deeply grounded, he builds trust through consistency, transparency and follow-through.

Outside of work, Reuben is happiest outdoors — whether in the bush, on the water or fishing with his boys. A passionate family man, his love for nature and lifestyle living shapes how he represents homes and the lives lived within them.

Tarryn

Tarryn is the strategic and creative force behind Scion Realty’s marketing, branding and campaign direction. With a deep understanding of buyer psychology and perception, she knows that how a property is presented — and how people feel throughout the process — directly influences outcomes.

Driven by a passion for excellence, Tarryn approaches every campaign with intention and individuality. No two properties are marketed the same; each is thoughtfully curated through tailored strategy, storytelling and timing to attract the right buyers and create meaningful connection. Her leadership has seen Scion Realty recognised across the industry for both marketing excellence and community contribution.

Growing up on a farm in South Africa, Tarryn’s love for animals, nature and family runs deep. Now raising their two boys, Hunter and Brodie, in the Noosa Hinterland, she finds deep belonging in the rolling hills, open space and sense of home the region offers.

Creative by nature, she finds joy in making, creating and being present — whether on the river with her boys, tending to her animals, or bringing ideas to life with her hands.

Together

What truly defines Reuben and Tarryn is not only their individual strengths, but their alignment. They challenge each other, support one another and share a deep respect for the responsibility entrusted to them by their clients.

As partners in business and in life, they lead Scion Realty with care, conviction and heart — representing not just homes, but a lifestyle they genuinely live and adore.
