Property Management & Marketing for Sale

"… we were delighted with the $55 million sale price"

Bruce S Matear
Managing Director

"Chris Lang managed the Arcade and co-ordinate tenancy relocations throughout a major refurbishment, in which not a day’s trading was lost despite the difficult conditions. In the process Chris brought Christian Dior to Melbourne, and negotiated Florsheim’s first stand-alone City outlet - both on our Collins Street frontage.

"Naturally when it came time to sell the property, we would not have entrusted it to any other real estate firm. We knew that Gardner+Lang had the necessary experience and expertise to successfully conduct an international marketing campaign. More particularly, we knew that every aspect would be handled personally by the Directors of the Company.

"In all my dealings with Chris, I have found that he is able to bring a different, and more innovative, approach to the project in hand.

"Accordingly, we were impressed with the level of enquiries generated, and the calibre of buyers that were persuaded to submit a formal tender. Of course, we were delighted with the $55 million sale price.

"All in all, it was a totally professional exercise by Gardner+Lang."
