Providing solutions will be key for new NAI Harcourts Gold Coast business Prahran Victoria in 1998. He sold the portfolio of 260 residential properties to Bellers and retained the commercial portfolio of around 100 properties. They consisted of inner Melbourne industrial and commercial properties. The business specialised in selling development sites mainly large inner Melbourne industrial sites to be converted into residential developments. The projects would then be marketed on a wholesale basis to investor groups and retain some of the residential managements. One large parcel of individual titles the business sold to multiplex developments in West Melbourne was for just over $40 million which the business then managed and carved off the individual properties to other smaller developers and investors. Parzis and his family decided to move to Queensland for a change of lifestyle and thought it would be a better place to raise their young children. They had a window of opportunity to either start something new in Victoria or Queensland and they decided on Queensland. “We are so glad we chose the Gold Coast as we love the lifestyle it offers”. “We believe that the NAI Harcourts brand is a clean and contemporary brand and has a huge future and will continue to grow.

  • Franchising in the Real Estate Agency Sector
    Copyright is owned by the Author of the thesis. Permission is given for a copy to be downloaded by an individual for the purpose of research and private study only. The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. Franchising in the Real Estate Agency Sector: Multiple Perspectives and Converging Angles of Inquiry A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Susan Flint-Rartle Massey University 2007 Abstract This thesis investigates the widespread phenomenon of franchising in the real estate agency sector. To date, fr anchising research has been largely multi disciplinary, explanatory theory relatively undeveloped and there has been heavy reliance on the point of view of the franchisor. This thesis broadens investigation to include multiple perspectives of both the franchisor and franchisee. It examines the important contribution made to the relationship by both parties and the nature of their parallel business venturing. Drawing on data collected fr om the main real estate franchisors operating in New Zealand and fr om samples of franchisee business owners in the Asia-Pacific region, the study uses a pragmatic mixed methodological approach. It is believed by breaking the quantitative tradition the complex nature and sector specific characteristics of franchising can be better understood. Two interlinked studies are undertaken. First, the franchisor's perspective of franchising is examined and a window study is used to illustrate the notion of resource competency. Second, fr anchising as an entrepreneurial activity mainly fr om the franchisee point of view expands existing debate linking fr anchising with the entrepreneurship domain.
