Blake’s interest in property started from a young age, influenced by his father’s construction business. After being made redundant during the pandemic Blake seized the opportunity to pursue his passion for property. He comes to the Bayleys Projects Team from a role in a high performing project sales and marketing business in Sydney, which saw Blake selling new build and off the plan projects. This blend of knowledge positions him as an ideal partner for those navigating the complexities of property developments.
Before real estate Blake’s career was diverse giving him an eclectic skillset. His roles have ranged from lead facilitator for a corporate team building company in South Africa to working as a model for GUESS, which led to Blake being a designer for their men’s and boy’s denim business and selling merchandise to wholesale businesses throughout Africa. He then pursued a career in health and fitness, becoming a personal trainer and qualified yoga/Pilates instructor. He also sold neuroscience and positive psychology programmes that were used by small, medium, large organisations to help develop mental resilience and performance. Everything Blake has done in his career has revolved around people making property the next logical progression.
Blake is known for his ability to develop rapid rapport with anyone he encounters. He is committed to facilitating the process of sale and purchase for both purchaser and developer creating win-wins. His cornerstones are honesty and integrity and he thrives on supporting and guiding people to make the best decisions for their unique circumstances. His focus is on making people feel special, seen and heard.
Outside of work family is everything to Blake. Together they enjoy weekends away, walks and cafes. Blake is also an avid pizza maker and enjoys pizza evenings with family and friends several times a month.
Based in the Bayleys Central office, Blake excels in leveraging Bayleys’ network and the expertise of the wider team for the benefit of his clients so they can reach their real estate project aspirations.
