In what it’s calling a “major corporate coup”, Raine & Horne has recruited a southern Sydney “star” to one of its agencies.
Bexley’s Marc Gable has joined the team at Raine & Horne Bexley/Beverly Hills, under the stewardship of directors Sam Epsimos and John Gymellas.
“It’s fantastic to have Marc with us now rather than against us,” Mr Gymellas stated.
“He has been a star agent in this region for a decade, and he links with us just as the local real estate markets are set to go into overdrive.”
According to the director, Mr Gable brings “a more significant slice of market share” to the agency, which will “cement” Raine & Horne Bexley/Beverly Hills’ grip on the Bexley area.
It’s not the only advantage that the agent will provide the office, with Mr Gymellas’ experience as a sales trainer poised to “help grow and develop the skills of our salespeople, which is a bonus for the business”.
Having previously worked under the McGrath banner, and after a decade in the Bexley market, Mr Gable said that linking with Raine & Horne represents the “next step” in his career progression.
“I’m also delighted that there will be new opportunities with Raine & Horne Bexley/Beverly Hills to expand my horizons, yet I’ll still be operating in a very familiar market to me,” he commented.
With international borders reopening, the agent considers “it’s exciting times”.
“I look forward to working closely with John, Sam and the team to take the business to the next level in collaboration with a brand that has impressive local, state and national brand recognition.”
Mr Gymellas agrees that the timing for Mr Gable’s recruitment “couldn’t be better”.
The recruitment “coup” comes just in time for the reopening of NSW’s international borders, and the director is expecting the local market to take off too.
“As soon as state and international borders open in a little over a week, we believe the return of Australians stranded overseas and international students will see the apartment market hit the runway and take off similarly to freestanding houses,” he said.
“The fact we’ve had very few long-haul flights touching down at nearby Sydney Airport has had an impact. But given the privileged location of our region, when the planes start landing again, there will be no holding back our markets.
“Moreover, talk of doubling the intake of skilled migrants will help drive up demand for apartments in Bexley, Beverly Hills and surrounding suburbs.
“As such, the timing for Marc’s recruitment couldn’t be better.”
