Company Profile

We research and understand the market all over Melbourne and have built alliances with numerous key investment companies and developers enabling us to provide you with relevant investment information. We are seen as the experts in this field.

Metro also has a specialised and dedicated leasing team. Their key role is to remain proactive and implement strategies which minimize vacancies, finds the best tenant for you and ensures that owners are kept up to date and informed.

We constantly invest in training and technology ensuring that you as an owner are represented by experts in their field. Leah Calnan our Director is in fact an industry trainer herself and views continual training to be extremely important to the self development of each team member at Metro.
