About John Gorman

Maintaining the same energy that saw him headhunted into the industry as an 18-year-old, John Gorman's years of experience now make him one of the area's most active agents, connecting with dozens of buyers, vendors, developers, builders and architects every week. Always on the go and always keen to provide advice on the market, John has become the agent of choice for those interested in developing in the Bayside, Glen Eira and Kingston municipalities. Equally sought-after by seasoned project managers and homeowners starting out with their first development, John is adept at helping vendors maximise the value in their land. From feasibility, planning, floor plan design, to marketing and 3D rendering, John welcomes the opportunity to work with vendors at all stages of the process. Whether they are re-purposing the family home as a future development site, looking to purchase a property to develop, or considering the most profitable mix of dwellings to take to market, John's advice adds real value. John's expertise extends to preventing over-capitalisation, to construction and finance costs, and to understanding the full GST and capital gains tax implications of the development and sales process. John has negotiated exclusive rates for his clients with some of Melbourne’s best 3D rendering specialists to help vendors bring their vision to life! John is also known for his ability to pro-actively market to pre-purchase buyers - helping them understand the architect or designer's vision...and then selling the dream to the purchaser. From understanding Stamp Duty savings to helping the buyer choose specific fixtures and fittings to suit their lifestyle. John’s track record of achieving outstanding results are a testament to the time he takes in every detail of the selling process and netting the best possible outcome for every single client. This ability to provide in-depth advice, connect with potential buyers (whether overseas or local) and negotiate a successful sale, is what underpins John's success in established markets too. A welcoming presence during the marketing process, John's enthusiasm turns to tenacity when calling auctions and around the negotiating table. Never one to let an opportunity pass by, this energetic agent is committed to helping every client develop the value in their greatest asset. Ever enthusiastic, John’s passions outside of work extend to a love of health, well-being and fitness. Much of his rare spare time spent weight training ….all the better to keep him fit for the high-energy running around he does on behalf of his clients! John has been practicing since 2008.
