We are Shawn Travolta and Dena Mendes — a husband-and-wife team who bring more than 30 years of combined experience in real estate, sales, investment, and strategic advisory. Together, we help our clients navigate Singapore’s property market with clarity, confidence, and a big-picture perspective that goes beyond the transaction.
OUR STORY:
Shawn began his career in government service, serving more than a decade as a senior civil servant working on policy and regulatory matters that shaped Singapore’s urban and housing landscape. He was also part of critical national projects, including site sourcing and setup work for the Ministry of Health during the COVID-19 pandemic. That experience gave him a deep understanding of how policy, planning, and long-term masterplans impact property values and investment timing.
Transitioning into real estate, Shawn applied this knowledge to residential sales, HNWI portfolios, and even M&A-style property deals. Today, he is a trusted industry voice, having been interviewed on how major government changes influence the property market, and is known for helping clients spot opportunities before the market catches on.
Dena built her career in sales and client strategy, bringing sharp negotiation skills and a personal, human-first approach. Her ability to listen, connect, and advocate for clients ensures every deal is not only financially sound but also emotionally secure. She is often praised for her empathy, patience, and attention to detail, qualities that make her a natural fit for guiding families, first-time buyers, and investors alike.
Together, our different strengths combine into a powerful partnership: Shawn’s strategy + Dena’s personal touch = results you can trust.

OUR PHILOSOPHY - DATA DRIVEN, PEOPLE-FIRST:
Property is more than just bricks and mortar — it is a life decision and a financial strategy. That’s why we balance heart with numbers:
* We leverage cutting-edge analytics (URA Realis, SRI BigData, and proprietary trend tracking)to anticipate shifts and identify hidden gems.
* We align property decisions with government masterplans (such as URA’s Draft Master Plan 2025), ensuring clients buy with foresight, not just hindsight.
* We focus on risk-managed timelines, so clients enjoy seamless transitions between homes without unnecessary stress.
At the same time, we never lose sight of the human element. We listen deeply, respect each client’s goals, and act as trusted partners every step of the way.
