High-achieving Stonnington and Boorondara agent Adam Cashmore has joined The Agency as a property partner.
Adam Cashmore is renowned for his exceptional sales results and is strongly entwined with his local community.
A long-time Stonnington resident, he is well-known for his genuine and ethical approach to real estate and is a well-respected member of the local area.
“Adam’s experience and expertise in the Stonnington area was exactly what we were looking for. He literally lives and breathes the area,” Peter Kakos, The Agency’s General Manager of Victoria says.
“He has developed and built an extremely strong following of clients who are drawn to his caring and nurturing nature, combined with his passion and skill in achieving great property outcomes.”
Changing brands after 16 years is a significant move for an agent, but Adam Cashmore felt he needed a fresh approach, one where the personal touches are at the forefront of the business and professional development and motivation are promoted within.
“The branding is modern and appealing and the business model is different to the old-school real estate office,” Adam Cashmore explains.
“It has a ‘new’ vibe and offers the flexibility and challenge that I have been searching for at this stage of my career.
“Within The Agency model I will essentially be operating my own business under the umbrella of a reputable and professional brand. I will be forming a team of motivated agents who will be working together for each other’s success.
“The Agency’s business model is different to standard real estate businesses. They have a fresh approach," Mr Cashmore told WILLIAMS MEDIA.
“A lot of traditional agencies are franchise models all over the Melbourne market, aligned to each other via a franchise.

“However at The Agency we are individual agents working under one umbrella which is totally different, and more of an overseas type business model.”
The appointment of Adam Cashmore will expand The Agency’s presence into the south-eastern suburbs of Melbourne including; Malvern East, Malvern, Hawthorn East, Toorak, Glen Iris and Armadale.
“Our goal is starting up a new office to support the areas across south east inner Melbourne, which are all fairly exclusive suburbs.
“We want to increase exposure into those areas and we are offering a more personalised, boutique service.
“I think the time's right to take on the majors in the marketplace,” said Mr Cashmore.

Peter Kakos said “Adam has an innate ability to connect with people, build strong relationships and possesses in-depth market knowledge.”
“With our new office about to launch in the east, servicing the eastern and south-eastern corridor, more clients will be able to benefit from The Agency’s point of difference.”
In Adam Cashmore’s view, agents need to adapt to both the changing market and an evolving industry.
“Agents need to be honest with their clients and rather than just follow standard procedures, work ‘smarter’ to sell their homes, which doesn’t necessarily mean ‘harder’.”
Adam Cashmore brings longevity and experience to The Agency, with a good reputation in the industry for his credibility and results.
