The Ray White Lower North Shore Group has completed the next piece of its puzzle by expanding and opening Ray White Willoughby.

The high profile principals of the new business are two of Sydney’s top sales agents, Stewart Gordon and John McManus, backed by long-standing top principals Richard Harding, Geoff Smith and Bernard Ryan. 

The experienced and well regarded group has always had long term plans for growth and their Willoughby office is the “next piece in the puzzle for us to cover the entire Lower North Shore”. 

Ray White NSW CEO Tim Snell said the market leader in the Lower North Shore has existing businesses in Mosman, Cammeray and Crows Nest.

“To welcome somebody of John's pedigree into the network is the ultimate compliment to the quality of leadership and business the Ray White Lower North Shore has built. The Lower North Shore represents one of Australia's most critical marketplaces, holding some of the country's most enviable homes. We are excited to support the continued growth of this first class operation.”

The key focus for Willoughby continues to be delivering outstanding results for their clients. 

“This office will benefit all our clients even further as it ensures our ability to work closely with a bigger team that will be in a position to better service the entire Lower North Shore. We have a yellow brick road covering the entire Lower North Shore now,” said Richard Harding. 

“Our goal, as always, is to put our clients first and deliver them the results they deserve,” he said.

The market leaders, each with more than 25 years experience in the industry, have become a workplace of attraction for star agents, administrators, property managers and loan brokers to take their careers to the next level. The performance focused family business is always looking to grow with the right people. 

Mr McManus said the team was always willing to talk to anyone who was chasing high quality mentoring, training and a growth focus. “After more than 25 years in the business, we know we can help young careers to flourish. We actually love nothing more than seeing our team members grow and succeed.”

The elite performers have established an enviable reputation as one of the most successful and sought after agencies in the blue chip Sydney area. 

The Willoughby team of real estate professionals all share the leaders’ vision for providing high standards of market intelligence and unrivalled customer service. The expanded business is always on the lookout for quality salespeople, property managers and loan brokers.

The new Willoughby office at 565 Willoughby Rd Willoughby, will service the Willoughby and Artarmon areas, as well as surrounding suburbs including Naremburn, Northbridge, Castle Cove and Castlecrag.  As a current resident of Castlecrag and a local of the Willoughby and Artarmon community for more than 20 years, John McManus has exceptional area knowledge and deep community ties. 

“I am passionate about growing the new business. The Ray White group has such a positive culture, high levels of integrity and strong work ethic. We will be one big team all working together towards one common goal,” Mr McManus said.

Mr Gordon said the new Willoughby office had been a long time in the planning, with the support of all at Ray White. ”We are lucky as the group has developed its own industry leading technology which sets it apart from our competitors. We are a family owned and led business with an established reputation for its strong family values.”

“Richard, Geoff and Bernard’s ambition for the continued growth, development and success of their team has been relentless since they joined our group six years ago,” said Ray White Managing Director Dan White. 

“There have been no short-cuts to their growth, and they have never wavered in their dedication to serving their community and their clients, and ensured that their whole team, and all new team members, share their commitment to excellence.”

“Having the entire Lower North Shore serviced by the one integrated and high performing team will bring enormous value to our clients,” he said.
