Henry Ferdinand Halloran (1869-1953), realtor, was born on 9 August 1869 at Glebe, Sydney. Articled to Arthur Stephen at Blue Gum Flat, near Ourimbah, Halloran became a licensed surveyor (1890), valuer (1895) and conveyancer (1896). By 1897 he had set up in Sydney as Henry F. Halloran & Co., specializing in land and property dealings.

Halloran's 1906-08 subdivisions at Seaforth, Cronulla Highlands, Warriewood, Stanwell Park, Avoca and Yow Yow (near Gosford) emphasized Halloran's predilection for coastal waterways. He embarked on a number of long-range plans, focusing on Canberra, Port Stephens and Jervis Bay; they were thwarted by the Depression. He had established Canberra Freehold Estates after the proclamation of the Jervis Bay Act (1915) and laid out various subdivisions on Canberra approaches. Environa, the most ambitious, was sited on the Queanbeyan-Cooma railway and included clear views of the capital. He also subdivided numerous estates at Lake Macquarie, the Blue Mountains and the central coast.

Realty Realizations Ltd was incorporated on 5 June 1930 to take over real estate agency activities, leaving Henry F. Halloran & Co. to act as advisers, conveyancers, surveyors and town planners.
