Ray White Glenroy has announced the appointment of two new commercial directors.

Mr Nguyen joined Ray White as a business owner in 2017 before taking a year off after becoming a father for the first time and travelled overseas.
 
He said he had worked with several other real estate brands but wished to diversify into commercial real estate and that the Glenroy office provided the opportunity to work in an environment of retail, industrial, offices, land and development sites.

• New appointments will allow the team to provide a complete real estate solution across residential, retail, commercial and industrial

"In each sector there’s an enormous opportunity in sales and leasing,” Nguyen said.

“There’s strong demand for smaller warehouses in industrial parks at the moment but there is also strong demand for apartment developments across north-west Melbourne and strong demand in mum and dad investors using their super to invest in commercial property.”
 
Mr Sgambellone started his career in land subdivision, before moving into property management then onto residential sales, followed by auctioneering.
 
He owned five offices across the northern corridor of Melbourne, specialising in residential sales, commercial sales and leasing and then moved into leasing serviced offices in Melbourne CBD and Southbank.
 
A lifestyle change led Mr Sgambellone to move into the media industry.

He said he had met current Ray White Glenroy Principals Ziya Koksal and Mete Karan almost ten years ago.
 
“If I was going to work in the commercial space then I was only going to work with Ziya and Mete and be a part of the Ray White family,” Sgambellone said.

“I treat people with respect and do the right thing and I believe people buy or lease from people they like. I don't like grey areas and I use my experience to offer an honest approach.”
 
Ray White Glenroy Principals Mete Karan and Ziya Koksal said they were pleased to welcome such high calibre commercial agents into their family.
 
“For us, it was more of a geographical opportunity, in the north-west corridor there isn’t a local agency offering commercial property services,” Mr Karan said.
 
“Dee has run a business before, he is hungry and driven (and) Dom arguably he has one of the best reputations in our industry.”
 
“We saw a gap in the market and it was a big opportunity for us to tap into the northern corridor,” Mr Koksal said.
 
“For us, some of our residential landlords own commercial property as well, this way we can provide a complete real estate solution for our customers, past vendors and purchasers.”
