Tom Roberts – REIV Senior Auctioneer 2015

Nelson Alexander is extremely proud that Tom Roberts, managing Partner at our Carlton North office, was yesterday announced by the REIV as the winner of its annual senior auctioneer competition. Gordon Hope of our Ivanhoe office also did us proud and produced a great performance to take out third place.

We have a long and proud history of providing our clients with an award winning auctioneering team. With a dedicated in-house training programme, conducted by Duncan McPherson of our Brunswick office, producing a successful team of both novice and senior auctioneers. Nelson Alexander agents have won the novice auctioneering competition 3 years in succession from 2010, Gordon Hope was the runner up in the senior competition in 2014 and now Tom’s success in 2015.

Auctions are an extremely popular method of sale in Melbourne, they provide transparency to all parties and often inspire urgency and competition. Your agent and auctioneer can have a significant impact on the final results of your sales campaign so you really do want the best team of auctioneers working for you and at Nelson Alexander you can expect nothing less than auctioneering excellence.

It has been a very successful year for Nelson Alexander, having been awarded the 2015 REIA Best Large Residential Agency and Community Service awards and now recognised as producing the best senior auctioneer in the state.

We wish Tom the very best as he moves on to represent Victoria in the Australasian Real Estate Institutes’ Auctioneering Championship which is the most prestigious auctioneering competition in Australia and New Zealand – Good calling Tom!
