Collective Conversations

What's the difference between being "nice" and doing "good' ?

A lot.

In this podcast I chat with Josh Jones (no relation) the Founder of the Just Be Nice Project (JBN) on how being nice and being good are very different.

Looking forward to your feedback on my chat with Josh as we talk about the way we act and how we can better use our skills to help others.

You'll feel a lot more inspired after listening to Josh !

Life of a commercial real estate agent as Colliers International is a hectic one, and it is usually food on the run.

However, for Andrew Chrapot and Harry Larwill they have managed to make all the traveling to sites in Melbourne's south east a positive, in sampling the local fare.

Andrew likes to refer to Tripadvisor to source a new place to eat while Harry has a few favourites.

So when I sat down to have a chat with Andrew and Harry about commercial trends I thought we'd also divert to some food recommendations. And away from Becco, Coda and Tonka, they also rate Oasis, Pings Dumplings, and Marko's Schnitzels.

Join us on a culinary journey through Melbourne's south east, CBD for some tips on where to find authentic dishes and they also let us into their own cooking styles at home!

Chris Tarrant in Toorak - Former Collingwood and Fremantle footballer Chris Tarrant is our latest celebrity listing. Chris – who retired from AFL in 2012 – with his wife Lauren, who is an interior designer, have been renovating prestige homes for the past few years. A Toorak property listed this week is their sixth project. The pair paid $3.65 million for the home at 17 Glen Road just last May. It’s since undergone a full renovation – the inside was gutted. A lot of work has been done on an outdoor entertainment area and garden, too. Its expecting $4.9-$5.2 million now. RT Edgar is managing an expressions of interest campaign for this one.

The Costa’s family’s landmark home in Newtown has hit the market asking $6.1 million, which would be a record for Geelong. Geelong businessman Frank Costa sold the Newtown house to his daughter in about 2011. It was at this home where Mr Costa and his wife Shirley raised their eight daughters.

Rosebud farm acquired by failed developer Steller for $7 million in 2016 has sold for $4.65 million.

James Crowder of Community Real Estate marketed the farm as a lifestyle property.
