Brendan Whipps
Adelaide State Franchise Office - Residential Properties
Having worked in an independent agency and a large Real Estate franchise office as a salesperson and sales manager from 1992 - 2002, Brendan understands the unique difference between an independent and franchised office and the benefits of both.
"Not Everyone is suited to the Franchise model but they should at least have a look at it".
During this time he had 5 years in a regional marketplace and the other 5 in the inner city suburb of Paddington, Brisbane.
An appreciation of the requirements to be a successful business in either marketplace soon developed. Brendan then took a leading role in the growth of the largest Real Estate franchise in Australia for a further 6 years.
He joined Elders because of the potential backed by the strength and integrity of thhe brand. "We have some incredible businesses in our network, they are big businesses with full integration of Sale, Property Management, Elders Home Loans and cutting edge technology. The exciting thing for me is the opportunity to grow - we have locations vacant in key marketplaces where the business potential is huge"
