Tanya Howard
Founder & Director
From Corporate Professional to Property Entrepreneur
​
For over a decade, I built my career in insurance and fintech—leading teams, growing businesses, and chasing goals in sales, talent, and strategy. I was driven, determined, and always reaching for that next level of success.
​
But behind the professional achievements was a growing feeling I couldn’t ignore. I was doing everything “right”— working long hours, staying loyal, meeting targets — but I still felt stuck. I was constantly proving my value, waiting for opportunities that never came, and watching my time slip away.
​
The real wake-up call came during a personal loss. I realised how little support or compassion the corporate world offered when life got hard. And that was the moment I knew: this couldn’t be it.
​
I wanted freedom. I wanted time. I wanted to build something real — something that created long-term wealth and allowed me to show up fully for the people who mattered most.
​
But more than that, I wanted to help others do the same.
Why I Started Cedar & Stone Group
Cedar & Stone Group was born from a simple belief: people deserve more control over their financial future — and property is one of the most powerful tools to get there.
​
Whether you’re:​
-
Feeling the weight of financial pressure or stuck with a mortgage you can’t keep up with,
-
Sitting on savings that aren’t doing anything for you,
-
Or someone with capital, ready to make it work harder in high-yield, risk-managed projects—
This is for you!
My background in strategy and people development has always been about solving problems and building trust. When I combined that with my love for property, everything clicked.
​
Now, through Cedar & Stone Group, I’ve created an ecosystem that brings together property owners, investors, buyers, sellers, and strategic partners—all working together to build something better.
Built on Values That Matter
Everything I do is grounded in my core values:
​
Integrity – Always doing right by people
Honesty – Clear, transparent communication
Fairness – Every deal, every time, for everyone
​
This isn’t just about bricks and mortar. It’s about helping people turn challenges into opportunities—and giving them the tools to build a life they are proud of.​​​​
