About Mitch Thorson
Adopting the coastal paradise of Margaret River as home for most of his life, Mitch Thorson, our highly esteemed Margaret River Region Specialist, brings a special kind of sophistication to our WA agency which has evolved from over 30 years travelling the globe, working with iconic brands and forging a vast network of contacts during his journey on the professional surfing circuit.
Focus, drive and self-determination undoubtedly define the motivation and loyalty central to Mitch’s character.
Taught to surf from the time he could walk, Mitch started his career as a professional surfer at age 14 – competing in the world tour for over two decades, and continuing his journey to work with renowned lifestyle brand, Oakley Eyewear, where his appreciation of global branding and sophisticated marketing has been pivotal to his career in realty – all the while, simultaneously mentoring, and coaching 11-times world champion, Kelly Slater through his comeback to professional surfing.
Mitch is a highly respected identity within the Margaret River community and is known for his active involvement in the region’s real estate sector which has remained his focus for over 16 years.
Proud to be associated with Sotheby’s global reach and enduring integrity, Mitch is inspired to share his passion for the place he calls home, especially now, as Margaret River enjoys its place on the world-stage as one of the most aspirational lifestyle destinations in the southern hemisphere.
