Mastering disruption – How the Commercial Guys have built a futureproof commercial property agency:

Adam has been featured in numerous publications over the years regarding his commercial properties approach to complete asset lifecycle process.

Unlike a typical agent profile, you won’t find a long list of public-facing listings under my name. The majority of my work is done behind the scenes — repositioning assets, managing complex projects, and handling high-level asset management strategies that rarely make it to the open market. Much of my focus is on transactions conducted off-market, where discretion and tailored solutions matter most. This approach allows me to deliver outcomes that don’t always show up online but make the biggest impact for owners and investors.

JD’s journey is a testament to his dynamic and multifaceted approach to sales and leasing. With a background that spans from the electrical field to the sports arena, JD has always been driven by a passion for excellence. His early days saw him leaving school for an electrical apprenticeship, while simultaneously playing premier grade rugby league for the Redcliffe Dolphins. His talent and dedication on the field sparked interest from the Brisbane Broncos, showcasing his commitment and team spirit.

However, it was the world of sales and real estate that ultimately captured JD’s ambition. Starting in front-line sales for a marketing company, he quickly learned that the essence of successful sales lies in understanding each client’s unique needs and desired outcomes. This insight has been the cornerstone of his approach to real estate, ensuring that every transaction is tailored to the client’s specific goals.

A chance encounter with Adam led to a pivotal turn in JD’s career, proving his worth and potential in the sales and leasing domain. Under the mentorship of Grant, a seasoned expert in sales and leasing, and Adam, an industry leader in commercial asset lifecycles, JD honed his skills and became a registered sales professional. His background as a second-rower in rugby league not only reflects his physical strength but also his ability to strategize, work in a team, and lead effectively.

JD has dedicated years to mastering the intricacies of transitions in commercial real estate assets. His deep understanding of the market, combined with his hands-on experience, has enabled him to navigate complex transactions with ease. JD’s focus on smooth transitions ensures that every deal he handles is not just a transaction but a carefully orchestrated process that maximises value for all parties involved. His ability to anticipate challenges and proactively address them has earned him a reputation as a reliable and skilled professional in the commercial real estate industry.

Now, as a Partner (equity) here at The Commercial Guys and also Manager for Sales and Leasing team, JD brings his diverse experience, unparalleled dedication, and innovative approach to the forefront. His leadership style is infused with the same energy and drive that marked his time in sports and sales, making him an invaluable asset to our team. Ready to lead the charge, JD is not just part of the team – he is a key player in driving our success forward.

With 20 years’ experience in senior retail management, Jay brings a strong commercial mindset, sharp negotiation skills, and a deep understanding of how businesses actually operate. In recent years, he’s channelled that experience into commercial real estate—where his work ethic and deal discipline have set him apart.

Jay has a reputation for doing the hard deals well. He grinds through complexity, keeps momentum when negotiations stall, and finds solutions where others see roadblocks. At the same time, he’s equally capable of executing fast, decisive transactions—with some of the quickest turnarounds in the office, including listings secured one day and deals agreed the same day, with paperwork finalised immediately after.

Local to the area and deeply connected to the community, Jay combines market knowledge with relentless follow-through to deliver outcomes, not excuses.

Fun fact: Jay debuted for NSW Rugby League at just 18 after playing for the Junior Dragons and was awarded a scholarship to St Mary’s Cathedral College—a reflection of the discipline and drive that still define his approach today.

Jay is always happy to talk market, strategy, or opportunity—especially when the deal matters.

Krystal brings a rare, high-impact blend of residential and commercial real estate experience to The Commercial Guys, underpinned by a true whole-of-asset lifecycle mindset.

Before joining our team, she built her foundation in Sydney’s high-volume property market, managing a portfolio of more than 1,000 properties. Operating in that environment demanded speed, structure, and clarity—skills that now translate directly into confident decision-making and strong outcomes for commercial property owners.

With more than six years in the industry, including over four years in commercial real estate, Krystal works across asset management, leasing, and sales, giving her a complete view of how each stage of a property’s lifecycle connects to the next. She understands that leasing decisions affect value, management affects performance, and strategy affects exit.

Krystal works closely with landlords and tenants to secure well-positioned leases, while also partnering with investors and owner-occupiers to identify, negotiate, and execute transactions that align with long-term asset goals—not just short-term wins.

Known for her strategic thinking, clear communication, and meticulous attention to detail, Krystal brings energy and professionalism to every phase of the process; from vacancy strategy and lease negotiation through to sale execution and settlement. Her integrated approach helps ensure assets are not just filled or sold, but positioned to perform and deliver consistently strong outcomes.

For Nick, commercial real estate isn’t about transactions—it’s about match-making.

Nick has a genuine passion for putting great tenants into the right properties for the right owners, knowing that when the fit is right, everything that follows—performance, longevity, and value—falls into place. His focus is on outcomes that last, not quick wins.

Coming from a family of long-standing business and property owners, the Cassimatis name is deeply woven into the local commercial landscape. Nick has grown up in the area, worked alongside local businesses his entire life, and understands the nuance of who belongs where—and why.

That generational knowledge gives Nick a rare edge. He doesn’t just know the market; he knows the people, the streets, the histories, and the direction the area is heading. His goal is not only to be part of the local fabric today, but to help shape it well into the future through thoughtful leasing, considered sales, and strong relationships.

Outside of work, Nick’s interests—cars, cameras, his child, clay targets, and motorcycles—reflect the same curiosity, precision, and enthusiasm he brings to his professional life.

If you want someone who genuinely cares about fit, longevity, and the future of your asset, Nick is always happy to talk.

Chelsey is an awesome asset manager that comes to us from island paradise real estate land.

Working on a coastal island looking after a large mix of assets for lessors she has taken to real estate like a moth to a light ( I would have said ‘like a cat to a fur ball’ but we don’t want to imply “Cat Lady”)

In all seriousness, Chelsey is dynamic and energetic and is a constant source of vivaciousness and motivation for the team.

In her spare time, she enjoys beach trips, exploring and spontaneous adventures!

Chelsey became a first home owner this year and we all think it will be the first of many.

Anna has spent more time in the Real Estate industry than anyone else here. With a career that has placed her in both Residential and then onto Commercial for the last decade, Anna has performed most, if not all roles in an agency.

This makes Anna the perfect ‘All Rounder’ that she is and the areas she covers here at TCG can not be all listed.

It’s fair to say that Anna predominantly looks after administration across the board including Sales, Leasing, Asset Management, Company admin and keeping Grant and Adam organised.

Anna likes weird things, like woodchopping. It’s inexplicable to us and we just don’t understand it.
