"Trust, transparency and giving are at the heart of my beliefs and I believe that positive and ethical business practices have tenfold returns. What makes me excited about property is the future. We have the opportunity to design solutions that address real world problems - such as housing for first home buyers, downsizers, millennials, retirees and the homeless."

The inspirational leader of Celsius Property Group, Perth, credits the company’s success to the dedicated team of consultants, property managers and administration staff who strive to put the customer’s needs first and work with integrity and honesty.
As Managing Director, Richard leads by example and believes the Celsius ethos of practicing what it preaches by investing alongside their customers. This has been the catalyst in the group’s expanding portfolio and client base.
Richard began his property career in 1998 as a Sales Consultant for City-Life before taking over as General Manager and eventually purchasing the business with wife Roxanne in 2005.
Since then, Richard and Roxanne have unequivocally transformed City-Life to include Focused Finance, a mortgage broking business and City-Life Developments, a niche residential development division. To bring uniformity and transparency, the company now trades as Celsius Property Group, bringing all divisions under one umbrella.
Highly regarded by his peers in the real estate industry, Richard has worked tirelessly to promote some of Perth’s best developments and build an enviable client database and referral network throughout Western Australia. Testament to the quality of services he provides, Celsius trades almost exclusively through referral and repeat based business.
A practising real estate agent with a fresh outlook and approach to investment, Richard enjoys assisting clients with their property needs and securing a greater financial future. He also takes pride in mentoring staff and keeping a close eye on the company’s financial performance through its investments. He possesses a Diploma of Property (REIWA) in addition to a Diploma of Financial Services and a current Real Estate licence.
