Han and Can House Two
Couple from Perth, WA

The Block
With the nickname Handy-Can and Can-Do Can, this couple from Perth will go into The Block with guns firing. Han and Can (Hannah and Candice) met just over a year ago online, and almost immediately after getting together realised they both wanted to do The Block. “I have always wanted to do The Block but never had anyone to do it with,” Han said. Can added: “I’m creative at heart and have always had a love of real estate, so I thought why not?”
Experience
Through their families they have both been exposed to construction and real estate. Han loves getting on the tools, thanks to working with her father for years, where she helped him renovate houses. The couple are currently renovating their own home, a Californian bungalow, in Perth.
Han, 29, geologist
Han moved to Australia with her family from the United Kingdom when she was nine. Growing up, she did a number of sports including swimming, basketball, AFLW and ballroom dancing. She now works as a mining professional and has spent time working all over Western Australia, including the Pilbara. She always wanted to learn a lot about rocks.
“I was fascinated by all of that, and when I came to Australia I didn’t realise geology was a thing,” she said. “It’s a great job, I love it.”
Can, 31, marketing and social media analyst
Growing up, Can was always creative, and has found herself working in marketing and social media in a number of industries including fashion, higher education and events. She has always loved property and real estate.
“Mum used to take me to art galleries and dad took me to motorbike tracks with the boys, and I used to take them to real estate open for inspections,” she said.
Together
Han and Can are a dynamic duo with a love of motorbikes, renovations, and their dogs. They have great respect and love for each other.
“Can has a massive heart,” Han said. “She will go out of her way to help people and I couldn’t imagine doing this with anyone else.”
Can says: “Han is so driven and motivated. She sets goals and she achieves them, which I think is a great quality.”
On The Block, Han is going to take charge of the project management and Can more the creative direction, but neither are afraid to get on the tools.
