WELSH Real Estate
180 Wright Street, Cloverdale WA 6105Robin Welsh fell in love with real estate when he bought his first home at 18. He then went on to purchase 4 properties by the time he was 20. By the time Robin was 24, he had bought & sold more properties than most people twice his age. This was the beginning of his desire to be in real estate.
"I had only paid rent for a few months after moving out of home, before realising it was good money down the drain, so I bought my first house," Robin said.
"I joined the WA Police Service so I would have a steady job to pay my mortgage’. "I had to grow up fast being thrown into front line policing, where it is necessary to quickly sum up situations and create a solution that has to be sold to the people involved".
Robin not only enjoyed his time in the Police Service, he believes it also gave him the training, experience and skills that have been invaluable to him today.
They say, "actions speak louder than words" and Robin proved this adage himself by winning the REIWA Rookie of the Year Award and was named a REIWA Master Salesperson selling a staggering 136 properties in his first eighteen months.
After spending a successful 4 years at Acton Real Estate as a Sales Executive, Director and Licensee and being named the groups Number 1 Selling Agent for number or properties sold, Robin took the next step and WELSH Real Estate became a reality. Being firmly entrenched in the City of Belmont, Robin decided it was time to open a local office which reflects his strong dedication and passion for the area.
Robin had a very clear vision of what he was wanting to achieve. WELSH Real Estate has received a number of awards as well as having an outstanding and highly regarded team in Sales and Property Management.
What is it that drives Robin to such success? “I am just excited about real estate. When I appraise or list a property for sale, I can’t wait to get home to tell my wife all about it. Equally, the thrill of making a sale gives me a real buzz, because I know I am helping people."
Robin enjoys spending time with his wife and two kids when not at the office or with clients. Basketball is a huge part of their life with both kids playing as well as Robin. "I'd have to say my biggest hobby is managing my own property portfolio. I have a real passion for my work, so much so that it is part of my personal life as well."
