Kay & Burton continue leading the charge with their new Armadale "experience" office.
Kay & Burton have launched what they've dubbed an "experience" office as part of their 80th anniversary.
Headed up by director Gowan Stubbings, the office is a testament to the agency's ongoing innovation within the property industry.
"We’ve always had huge success through the Armadale and Malvern corridor, and have toyed with the idea of having a physical presence there for quite a while. We now have a dedicated team who live and breathe Armadale and surrounds, so the timing feels perfect,” said Gowan.
Mr Stubbings said an Armadale office felt like the natural next step for Kay & Burton.
“A great addition to Armadale’s thriving art scene, Kay & Burton was the first agency to move from sketch drawings of homes to high-grade photography, and from small ads to large ads in a bid to showcase their properties.

“About 21 years ago, we were the first agency to introduce night-time photography and full-scale video productions to better service our time-poor clients,” adds Joint Managing Director Ross Savas.
According to Michael Gibson, joint managing director of Kay & Burton, the agency’s early adoption of new technology and systems is what has kept them at the cutting edge of the real estate world.
“We are constantly on the look-out for the next trend and believe we changed the game when it came to marketing properties," said Mr Gibson.
“We were the first to use interior designers to style homes, the first to use night photography and the first to use film and full-scale productions.”

Since opening the doors to their first office in South Yarra back in 1938, the company has grown rapidly to seven locations across Melbourne's eastern suburbs.
Known for being a boutique agency with a "client-first philosophy", Kay & Burton plan to integrate this approach across the new Armadale office space.
