Profile


As a fully-licensed Real Estate Agent, a former Director for a large multi-office brand and a property professional of many years' standing, Leigh Gardam has the expertise, credentials and commitment to guarantee real estate success.

Joining the industry after a distinguished naval career, Leigh's life experience encompasses public service, business management and extensive travel. Time in the military and in the corporate world have shown him there are always new goals to be achieved ...and always better ways to achieve them.

"Working in other agencies, I could see what works, what doesn't, and what was costing my clients unnecessary money," says Leigh. "That led me to believe that there can be a better approach and a better outcome for many vendors. By working in conjunctions with DBC Centre I am able to offer a highly personalized service with access to the support, services and networks of Melbourne's largest property services group."

A Real Estate professional for more than a decade with Melbourne market expertise and international experience, Leigh has developed a formidable reputation as an agent of integrity and acumen. "I am strongly connected to local markets. However, today, local experience is not enough," he says. "Being widely networked at home and abroad is becoming increasingly important. One of my early goals was to travel widely, choose my partners wisely, and build strong networks at home and overseas."

Leigh’s family is uniquely connected to the financial and real estate industries and actively involved in the local community. With two primary-school age children, Leigh and his wife Katrina work towards business and personal goals everyday. For Leigh these goals, like the ones he sets for his clients’ properties, are often beyond expectation…. and always achievable.
