Richard Kerr commenced his Real Estate career in Perth in 2003 and has ample auctioneering experience both here and overseas.
As a Salesperson, he was drawn to the auction method and soon became an advocate and successful auction agent. Inevitably the leap was taken to learn the craft which all started by simply “having a go” in 2010 in Auckland, NZ – his hometown. Winning industry accolades early in his career encouraged him to train further and practice with the best auctioneers he could find.
Richard has seen good markets, bad markets, and all in between in Perth, Auckland and in regional Tauranga New Zealand. He has been Group Auctioneer for large multinational franchises, standalone brands as well as working within a boutique Auctioneering group in New Zealand.
Returning to Perth in 2021, he is the WA face of Australasia’s largest independent Real Estate Auctioneering group – Apollo Auctions.
For years Richard has trained agents in the auction process – from beginner level to expert and still gets a buzz out of seeing agents realise the multitude of benefits an auction campaign affords them and their vendors.
Richard brings a passionate belief and sound knowledge of the auction process, combined with the strength of the Apollo brand to ensure YOUR auction experience and auction education are second to none.
