Roberts Real Estate announces two year partnership with Whitelion.
Roberts Real Estate is the largest estate agency in Tasmania and, indeed, one of the largest in Australia. Whilst many of its competitors are part of national groupings, and nationally boast larger number of offices, they are invariably either franchise or marketing groups, and are simply a combination of smaller individual real estate businesses which affiliate for marketing purposes.
The company also currently manages over 2,600 properties statewide, and is the largest provider of property management services in the State.
Roberts Real Estate announced a two year partnership with Whitelion in June 2010. Roberts Real Estate have committed financial support, in-kind support and employee involvement with Whitelion programs across the state.
