Jim Kalakias
Ever since finishing school, Director Jim Kalakias had an immense passion for real estate and a determination to pursue property as a long-term career.
His foray into the industry began with Love & Co in 2002 as a Saturday receptionist, moving into property management after just a few months and working his way up to Branch Manager by 2007. In 2010 Jim became a partner in the business and he has been instrumental in shaping its culture and direction ever since.
He loves that the area is extremely multicultural and diverse and that it attracts everyone from families and couples to retirees and investors. Helping people achieve one of their biggest goals in life and supporting them with all of their real estate needs is the only motivation he needs to deliver consistently excellent service.
Jim’s attention to detail and deep understanding of the market enable him to find the best solution to any situation. Honest, empathetic and straightforward, he always has his clients’ best interests at heart.
A Licensed Real Estate Agent and a member of the REIV, he ensures his vendors and buyers are given astute, insightful advice from the start. Jim also speaks fluent Greek, which is an enormous advantage in the local area.
A proud Essendon and Melbourne City FC supporter who gets to as many games as he can, Jim has a passion for food and a love of gardening.
