As one of the most awarded auctioneers in Australia, it's safe to say that Damien Cooley has become a household name when people think of auctions.
At the helm of an incredibly successful business, Damien has received countless accolades which are testament to his focus and commitment to his craft. These commendations have reinforced his reputation as one of the best in the business.
Specialising in all facets of residential and commercial real estate, Damien’s results speak for themselves. Having conducted in excess of 30,000 auctions and $30bn in sales throughout his career, he has attained countless suburb records, and previously held the Australian record for the highest sale price ever achieved for a home at auction.
With a strong sense of responsibility to use his talent to help people in need, Damien conducts many charity auctions and fundraising events each year. These include the Black Dog Institute, Ronald McDonald House, Sydney Children's Hospital, the Royal Hospital for Women and the Children's Cancer Institute.
"Damien is a master of reading the room and adjusting his approach to suit the audience, making sure that every auction he conducts is a success. His dynamic and high-energy approach is unmatched, leaving other auctioneers unable to reach the same level of excitement that Damien can generate."
