URban real estate
From a boutique agency and previously working exclusively for one of Melbourne’s brightest stars in the property development space, Urban Real Estate has been founded to bring your own personalised service provider when it comes to your real estate needs. We get to know you on a different level, with direct communication and around the clock service. It is this work ethic that real estate never sleeps that sets us apart from the rest and will assist us in helping you take your real estate ventures to the next level.
​
The founders, having previously entrusted other sales agents to market and sell their developments, became disillusioned with poor results and excuses from these agents. It was not until they took matters into their own hands and started selling their own products themselves, it became immediately clear that no one went above and beyond when it came to selling their products. Other agents may come in and sell the easy to sell properties, but some properties may require more work in order to achieve the best possible outcome. At Urban Real Estate we pride ourselves in going that extra mile when it comes to your property. With intimate knowledge of the product we sell, we will not rest until the job tasked of us is achieved.
​
The same goes for the properties we manage, we really do manage your properties like they are our own. Our goal is to take the stress out of worrying about your investment, let us do that for you, whilst you enjoy the fruits of your labour and have peace of mind your investment is being looked after.
​
Armed with confidence in the properties we market, this same confidence is carried over to our sales and lease process to ensure the best possible outcome for our clients. Our reputation is delivered on the results we deliver to you, at Urban Real Estate.

Mob: +61 426 602 945
Born in Melbourne, Damon has also lived in Shanghai, China for 6 years. Damon has completed a double degree at the University of Melbourne Majoring in a Bachelors of Commerce and Bachelors of Laws. After spending his early working life at one of the worlds largest Wealth Management and Investment Banking firms, Damon decided to step out and embark on a career in property development which had been a life long passion.
​
Having driven along and delivered successful developments, Damon noticed that when it came to selling there was no one who cared or knew as much about the development as himself. Becoming disillusioned by the agents excuses for slow progress and results, Damon decided to give it a go selling properties himself. The results were immediately clear and with patience, relentless work ethic, energy, going the extra mile and passion for this industry Damon was able to achieve exceptional results ‘the professionals’ were unable to achieve. Having achieved successful sales of his own developments, Damon went on to attain a Real Estate Agents’ License and subsequently set up Urban Real Estate in the hope of attracting buyers and sellers to an agent who actually cares.
​
Damon’s previous experience in the corporate environment, especially in strategic investment portfolio management, has given him a unique insight into the economy and all factors that can impact the local property market. Damon’s ability to communicate his knowledge of the economy and the local property market to buyers and sellers has proven extremely effective in achieving the highest possible result.
​
Damon is fluent in English, Mandarin and Cantonese which allows him to build trust and relationships with both local and overseas buyers. Damon’s ability to network is his strength and his passion and involvement in the property industry has seen him volunteer his time as a committee member for the Australian Property Developers Association (APDA).
​
Away from work, Damon loves spending time with his two boys and wife. He enjoys sports, especially AFL, formula 1, tennis and golf. Damon enjoys movies, especially thrillers and comedies.
