NEW LOOK: Garry Nash recently returned to being an independent real estate agent and rebranded the FRPSDQ\¬V 5RZDQ 6WUHHW RI²FHV PHOTO: Luke Plummer
Looking after people WHILE technology and demographics in real estate have altered considerably since Garry Nash first got involved in the industry some 41 years ago, there is one thing that has not changed – the importance of customer service. “It’s all about trust, and it’s all about looking after the people,” Mr Nash said. He got his beginnings in the real estate industry working with the late Arthur and John Meyland. During the years to come, he and wife Marion both worked on achieving their full real estate licences by correspondence, a slow process in those days.
Eventually, he struck out on his own, establishing Garry Nash Real Estate Pty Ltd. In the early 1980s he was among the founding members of the First National group of real estate agents, and the business operated under that group for a number of years, until very recently. With the recent return to operating as an independent real estate agent, Mr Nash said he has really come full circle in his career and is very excited about the future of the business. Mr Nash said that he has been passionate about working in real estate since the very beginning. “I have loved the opportunity
to help people in Wangaratta through many phases of their lifetime,” he said. He has served generations of clients, and has been gratified to see children of older clients come to the business to get settled in their first home or rental. Mr Nash is also heartened to play his own role in the continuing residential and commercial development of Wangaratta and district. When not at work, he enjoys time with family, including visiting his and Marion’s adult children – Justin, Laura and Caitlin, who were all educated in Wangaratta – and their families whenever possible.
Community is at the forefront of Mr Nash’s mind. A happy long term resident of Wangaratta, he was instrumental in promoting the lifestyle of the area during the Regional Living Expo in the past few years. He has been a passionate supporter within the CFA for a number of years, including performing advocacy and operational roles within the organisation, being captain of the South Wangaratta Fire Brigade for 15 years, and working as the deputy group officer of the Wangaratta Fire Brigade Group.

continued from page 1 Giving back to the community is also high on the agenda, with Mr Nash and the business sponsoring initiatives with local schools, community and sporting clubs, as well as the Wangaratta Festival of Jazz, and donating to a range of organisations every year, from sporting clubs and schools to The Cancer Council and the Make A Wish Foundation, just to name a few. As well as his long term community commitments, he is also a Justice of the Peace. He says physical fitness and exercise to stay healthy and
energetic is essential for both his career and family life. “You’ve got to look after yourself,” he said. Mr Nash extolled the virtues of the rural city as a safe and conveniently located municipality, with a range of essential facilities. “It’s pretty hard to beat Wangaratta,” he said. “There’s just so much potential here.” He said people from other regions, and Melburnians, are beginning to notice the attractions of the area, including the vibrant wine and tourism attractions of areas such as the
King Valley, as well as educational opportunities and the advantages to establishing business in Wangaratta and district. Mr Nash is optimistic about the future growth of Wangaratta, hopeful the incoming council would work further on strategic planning to bring more business into the district. While real estate, among other industries, is steadily evolving with the use of technology such as drones and 360 cameras, Mr Nash said that strong morals and business ethics, as well as a commitment to hard work, would remain the cornerstone of any successful business.
THE Wangaratta Project: CBD Masterplan will encourage growth in Wangaratta’s CBD. The masterplan was developed with extensive public input – just under 200 residents made submissions to the draft plan and many more contributed to its development. Included in the Masterplan are several ‘Big Ideas’ and ‘Quick Wins’. Masterplan Quick Wins include shop local campaigns, removing barriers to busking, installing pop-up op shops in vacant shops and holding an annual ideas-a-thon. Big Ideas from the plan include creating a compelling brand for Wangaratta’s CBD, expanding the arts and culture precinct, intensifying the experience of Wangaratta Railway Station and making crossing CBD streets safe and easy. Work has already begun on implementing the CBD Masterplan, with one of the first projects building a shade sculpture in the Ovens Riverside Square. This project will progress in the coming months and residents will have a say in what the structure looks like. Linking the railway precinct with the retail centre of Wangaratta is another priority for the next 12 months. These projects will bring significant positive change to Wangaratta and will also require significant support from funding partners, which is why council is in the process of lodging a funding application with State Government for approximately $5 million over two years to start implementing key “big ideas” from the Master Plan. The expected outcome from the Masterplan will be that people will be encouraged to do more shopping and spend more time in our city centre.

TESTIMONIAL: THIS FARMER PURCHASED A SECOND X5000, JUST 3 WEEKS AFTER HIS FIRST! When investing in Hustler’s flagship balefeeder it’s not a quick decision for some, but when Ian Dickson of Milawa,Victoria brought his first Chainless X5000 he was so impressed that in just 3 weeks he was walking through the door of his local Hustler dealer to get his second Chainless X5000. Ian is breeding and fattening cattle for the Coles Supermarket and between the two Chainless X5000 bale feeders he’s feeding 18 square hay bales of rye grass per day, to his breeder cattle in the pastures. For the fattening cattle on the feedlot Ian has 2 TMR’s for mixing and feeding grain and supplements which both operate full time everyday. Local Accredited Hustler Dealer, McGregor Machinery based in Wangaratta are
pleased to have supplied the Dicksons with their new Chainless X5000 bale feeders, and provide the full supply, back up and service of the Hustler range of Bale feeders, Sprayers, and Softhands. So why did Ian like it so much?
