An experienced Melbourne inner bayside agent has joined Peter Kakos at The Agency’s newest office in the city’s in-demand suburb of Albert Park.
Michael Paproth is a specialist in the sale of prestige property and has joined with The Agency’s general manager, Peter Kakos, to open the new office.
Mr Paproth said that he is looking forward to the new challenge.
“To recalibrate with Peter Kakos and to be able to work with The Agency team including Matt Lahood, Shad Hassen, Ben Collier and Steven Chen is very exciting,” the agent said.
“Peter and I worked closely together for three years at Marshall White, and now again we have the opportunity to grow a high-calibre team in Victoria.
“We have a blank canvas in terms of who we move forward with and what we create under The Agency brand, which is focused on world-class service.”
Mr Paproth said that he is “very clear” on what it takes to deliver on consumer expectations in today’s market.
“The real estate industry and its relationship with the evolving digital landscape — including new products, new portals and social media avenues — means there is more pressure on agents to work within agile environments.
“The pace of change is speeding up and it is up to the real estate brands to carefully assess which technologies will see them safely into the future.
“Things like seven-day-a-week availability, world-class auctions, valuable real-time data and quality market advice make the difference.”
Mr Kakos called Mr Paproth one of the top agents in the Port Phillip Bay area and said that he is a renowned mentor and leader.
“Michael Paproth is highly regarded as the go-to agent for property in Port Phillip Bay.
“His knowledge, understanding and passion for the area is unwavering, and for over 20 years, he has specialised in selling Albert Park, Middle Park and Port Melbourne’s finest homes and apartments.”
Mr Kakos lauded Mr Paproth’s “extensive” experience.
“From the lows of the GFC to the highs of 2016 and 2017,” the GM said, “this experience, coupled with his natural leadership qualities, means Michael will step straight into a leadership and mentoring role within the Victorian team.
“His ability to strategise a campaign, ensuring maximum exposure, and expertly negotiate sale outcomes make him one of the best.”
Mr Kakos also said that he has a “tremendous” following in his market.
“I have wanted to link arms with Michael for a very long time and could not be more excited to continue our real estate journey together and be at the forefront of a fast-changing industry.”
