New acquisition for WBP

Effective 1 February, Suburban Valuations will commence trading as WBP Property Group (WA) with the firm's director, Brendan Aylmore, continuing as head of the valuation business in Perth.

WBP CEO, Greville Pabst, said the merger was in line with the company's growth strategy.

"Our merger with Suburban is aligned with strategic plans to further expand our national coverage, to cater to the growing demands of our clients and a changing industry," he said.

Suburban specialises in both residential and commercial property valuations across metropolitan Perth.

The acquisition follows the recent opening of new WBP office s in Ballarat and Tasmania, and the recent acquisition of national commercial asset manager, Retail Realty.
