Professionals Group Australia is further increasing its presence in Australia’s fiercely competitive property market.
In the past year, Professionals have added eight new offices and only two months after it added Professionals Bonny Hills on the NSW Mid North Coast, another Professionals office has opened in nearby Wauchope.
Bonny Hills couple Jon and Sharon Slater, who previously operated an independent real estate agency, are the team behind both the Bonny Hills and Wauchope offices.
Professionals Group Australia, which was founded by six independent real estate agents in 1976, now has more than 225 agencies under its banner and is among the top 10 largest real estate networks in the country.
Professionals Group Australia Chief Executive David Crombie said the network’s growth showed the attractiveness of the Professionals brand.
“Professionals Group Australia continues to grow its agency network, aided by its unique membership model,” said Mr Crombie.
“Our membership network is different to a franchise system because it allows members to use a well-known real estate brand and to access extensive support through a comprehensive suite of tools and services.
“As a member of the Professionals network, members have greater autonomy to drive their business forward while also offering the advantage of more attractive fees than a typical franchise.”
Mr Crombie, who splits his time between Professionals offices throughout Australia, said a key priority for the group is to ensure its members receive the best possible support from “local” offices.
