McGrath open new office in Mansfield, Victoria

Leading residential real estate group, McGrath Estate Agents, today announced the opening of a new office in Mansfield Victoria.

McGrath Mansfield will be led Kate McDougall and Allana Neely who were formerly at The Agency Victoria.

McGrath Mansfield will service a large area from Swanpool in the North, to Eildon in the South, Merton in the West to Mount Buller in the East. Key suburbs will include Mansfield, Jamieson, Barjarg, Piries, Merrijig, Tolmie and Ancona.

McGrath moved into Albury/Wodonga earlier this year.

Founder John McGrath has reinforced his view that regional areas in close proximity to large towns and cities will be particularly desirable as people reassess their lifestyle options.

“I believe the ability to work remotely and commute as needed is now a more acceptable part our everyday life and will no doubt impact property choices for many outside the traditional FIFO worker," McGrath said.

"We have long earmarked the growth of regional areas that are attractive for their lifestyle and affordability and anticipate a further migration trend post COVID-19.”

Mansfield Shire, situated in North East Victoria, is in close proximity to Melbourne and other regional centres (Shepparton, Wangaratta and Benalla) and easily accessed – 2.5 hours and 1 hour respectively.

It is equally close to the Albury airport with a two-hour drive that offers accessibility for both the modern commuter or tourist, attracted to its nearby lakes, national parks and ski fields.

Christopher Mourd, head of franchise network for McGrath Estate Agents said the opening was part of the overall strategy to service our clients effectively as they often make a migrational shift around future lifestyle and property choices.
