LJ Hooker Commercial’s nationwide capabilities were celebrated this week as the Group honoured its sales, leasing and support specialists across the country. 

LJ Hooker Commercial Silverwater co-Director Marcel Elias was again named the Group’s top salesperson over the last 12 months.

The Central West Sydney industrial specialist has worked with landlords, owner-occupants and tenants over the past year as essential services businesses sought to optimise their operations during COVID-19.

LJ Hooker Commercial Managing Director Mathew Tiller congratulated all the award winners from the night.

“The last 12 months have presented unforeseen challenges for commercial property specialists around Australia,” he said. 

“Sales and leasing agents have been working with both vendors and tenants to navigate uncertainty in the marketplace while property managers have been the linchpins in landlord-tenant agreements through the state-based Commercial Codes of Conduct.

“Despite the unprecedented challenges, these professionals have been still delivering premium results for clients.

“They top our network and their marketplaces and prove why everyone from high net worth investors to publicly listed institutions, government departments and small business owners, turn to LJ Hooker Commercial for trusted guidance.”
