In a major shakeup for Melbourne’s real estate scene, well-known agency Jellis Craig has just brought Greg Hocking’s team under its wing, adding 10 new offices across Port Phillip to its already impressive network. The move pushes Jellis Craig’s reach to 37 locations throughout Melbourne and Victoria’s most sought-after areas.
A Strategic Merger with Local Impact
The deal brings more than just bricks and mortar – around 80 of Greg Hocking’s experienced staff are joining the Jellis Craig family. Nick Dowling, who heads up Jellis Craig, couldn’t be more thrilled about teaming up with what he calls “one of the most recognised and respected names in real estate,” describing it as a perfect match for their target markets.
Shared Values and Long-Term Vision
Greg Hocking himself seems equally excited about the merger, highlighting that both companies have been helping Melburnians buy and sell homes for four decades. He said Jellis Craig’s professional approach and forward-thinking attitude aligns perfectly with his own team’s values and culture.
Strengthening Inner-Suburban Reach
This latest expansion is part of Jellis Craig’s broader strategy to strengthen its presence in Melbourne’s inner suburbs, particularly in Port Phillip. By bringing Greg Hocking’s offices into the fold, the agency aims to offer clients even better service and deeper expertise in both sales and property management.
What It Means for Port Phillip Residents
For locals and investors in the Port Phillip area, this means access to a larger network of seasoned real estate professionals and enhanced property services. As Jellis Craig continues to grow, residents can look forward to more comprehensive and innovative support when buying, selling or leasing homes in their neighbourhood.
