Justin Kramersh

Sales Executive

Could you share your journey with Burgess Rawson and highlight your role and achievements so far?

“Since joining Burgess Rawson in August 2021, after transitioning from a local boutique agency that specialised in off-market transactions, I have been deeply involved in the commercial property sector.

In my current role as a sales executive, I work closely with some of the industry’s leading agents, focusing on the sale of essential service leased investments via our renowned Portfolio Auctions.

My responsibilities span the entire sales campaign, from inception to completion. Notable accomplishments so far include the successful transaction of over 100 commercial investments, encompassing both on-market and off-market deals. This experience has certainly honed my expertise, and contributed to Burgess Rawson’s industry legacy.’

What do you consider the best thing about being part of the Burgess Rawson community?

“At Burgess Rawson, we foster a collaborative culture that values hard work, evident in the success of our Portfolio Investment Auctions held every six weeks.

Our people are our greatest asset, and it’s a privilege to work in such a dynamic environment surrounded by motivated individuals striving for excellence.

The office is alive with energy where a sense of camaraderie is unmistakable.

A spontaneous game of footy is not uncommon, and this atmosphere not only fosters creativity and innovation but also reinforces our team’s solidarity.

This same spirit of collaboration, honesty, and integrity that we value internally also extends to our dealings with clients. This holistic approach ensures lasting, meaningful relationships, rooted in mutual trust and understanding.’

What’s the most unusual property sale you’ve been involved in?

“One of the great aspects of working with Burgess Rawson is the opportunity to gain exposure to unique assets.

In particular, the sale of the Australian Federal Police (AFP) Canine Facility in Murwillumbah, NSW stands out as the most unique property transaction in my career. The property, spanning an expansive 9,500sqm, housed only five police dogs at the time, yet the AFP paid in excess of $450,000 per annum.

The intricate sales campaign was a memorable challenge, and ultimately the asset was purchased by a local buyer for $5.075 million.’

What is your specialty in the real estate market?

“With a track record of successfully transacting over $400 million in properties across various asset classes, including retail, early education, development sites, fast food, and government, I’ve been incredibly privileged to have developed expertise in diverse areas.

More recently, I’ve started specialising in the early education sector, collaborating with esteemed colleagues; Natalie Couper and Adam Thomas which has enriched my perspective and enabled me to approach transactions with a comprehensive and strategic mindset.

Their expertise, combined with the resources and reputation of Burgess Rawson, has positioned us as the go-to firm for early education investment sales nationwide.’

Do you have any goals you’d like to share?

“In the future, I aspire to become a partner at Burgess Rawson in Victoria and establish myself as a leading sales agent consistently delivering exceptional results for my clients.

As Burgess Rawson continues to drive innovation and excellence in the field, I am excited about the possibilities that lie ahead.

I look forward to further contributing to our team’s success as the market leader in the commercial investment sales space.’
