Professionals Real Estate 
Father-and-son property team Raghad and Carlos Misho have opened their second real estate agency in Melbourne’s fast-growing northern suburbs in the space of two years.
The pair are opening Professionals Craigieburn to join their flagship agency, Professionals Coolaroo, which opened for business during the height of the COVID-19 epidemic.
Father Raghad said the pair opened Professionals Coolaroo business together in April 2020.
“It was very tough initially because we were working from home with all the COVID-19 restrictions in place,’’ he said. “We were finally able to move into the Professionals Coolaroo office in January 2021.”
Mr Misho said he had lived and worked in Melbourne’s northern suburbs for 30 years and had previously been a partner in the Craigieburn agency before deciding to team up with his son to open the Coolaroo office.
When his former business partner closed the Craigieburn office, Mr Misho and his son jumped at the opportunity to reopen it.
The former mechanical engineer says he loves the real estate industry.
“The great thing about it is that you are not locked in an office from 9am to 6pm. You get out and about, enjoy a few coffees during the day and you meet a lot of interesting people.
“The industry is all about people and learning about them.”
Mr Misho said Craigieburn and Coolaroo had diverse communities with a lot of representation from families from Europe and the Middle East.
“The property market in the northern suburbs is very strong while the demand for land is going crazy in the climate,’’ he said. “The buyers are a mix of first-home buyers and upsizers with some investors buying in the region as well.”
Raghad says he is very pleased to be part of the growing Professionals Real Estate group because it has a growing presence in Melbourne and because of the support the group provides.
“I have worked with a lot of big real estate companies, and we decided to go with the Professionals because I felt they were helpful, very supportive and down to earth,’’ he said.
“The Professionals really do give agency owners a lot of support.”
