With more than 30 year's real estate experience, Geoff Thompson has the knowledge of the Croydon area market, negotiating prowess and marketing expertise to ensure his clients of a top result every time.

Geoff and his wife Sue, the office's administration manager, have worked tirelessly over many years to ensconce Barry Plant Croydon as the premier real estate agency in the area.

The agency's list of awards, which include Barry Plant Office of the Year, REIV Customer Service Award and Australian Achiever Awards for Customer Service on three occasions, are testament to Geoff and Sue's commitment.

"We have lived and worked in this community for three decades and not only know the real estate scene as well as anyone, but also have a deep affinity with both the local residents and business people."

Acknowledged as one of the Barry Plants group's most talented auctioneers, Geoff's relaxed style puts intending purchasers at ease and invariably results in him obtaining the extra bid that transforms a good price into an outstanding outcome for the vendor.

"Our team puts in that extra effort for our clients regardless of whether they are selling at auction or by private sale because we understand what the sale of the family home means to people."

A self confessed-petrol head, Geoff follows the fortunes of V8 Supercars or indulges in his passion for all things Italian - including honing his skill with the language - in his spare time.
