Matt Lanigan

Land Acquisition Specialist

Matt Lanigan’s love of property, creating, marketing, branding, business and entrepreneurship was born at a young age. His earliest memory of property was when he was a young boy and his parents would take him and his sister on a Sunday drive out to the countryside.

Alby Tomassi

Managing Director

His deep knowledge, passion, and experience in property stems from a successful working relationship with the Private Banking division of the Bank of China, selling to investors both locally and internationally through his sales office in Nanjing, China, from 2008-2012.

After stepping away from the property market for a few impactful years to focus on his philanthropy work in Africa and Asia as Co-Founder of YGAP, Alby re-entered the real estate sector when he joined 360 Property Group and Greg Hocking, before opening his own agency - Tomassi & Co.

Alby possesses a unique skill set in his understanding of capital markets, feasibility studies for new development, project marketing, and has achieved outstanding results in the residential, commercial and industrial real estate markets, via his wide-ranging networks within the development, building and investment sectors.

Alby has a close working relationship with multiple ASX-listed companies with a focus on residential lot subdivisions and BTR, superannuation funds, private family offices and national development companies.

Alby has built trusted relationships throughout APAC and the US who continue to invest in land and projects via Tomassi & Co’s in depth sales and marketing strategies supported by real time market data.

His negotiating skills are of the highest level, which enables him to achieve successful outcomes for his clients.

Matt Lanigan

Land Acquisition Specialist

As Matt grew older and reflected on these Sunday outings, he began to realise that the trips would be where his love for land and property began.

Equipped with a Business Marketing degree from university, Matt spent the next 13 years utilising his skills in branding, marketing, and sales to successfully create and exit 9 start-up businesses in the entertainment, hospitality, and technology spaces. But the property world was calling, and Matt had to answer. So he went back to study to learn everything he could about the property sector.

During this time, Matt obtained his corporate real estate license, worked for Romano Property Group, sold a multi-million dollar property development in Toorak, helped launch Jim’s Real Estate, and created project marketing and sales campaigns for local developers. But his proudest achievement was starting Rent Converters, an end-to-end service that helps Australians achieve their goal of owning their own home. Rent Converters has now helped over 100 people get into their first home.

Matt continues to work in the off-market land sales space, however his focus is now predominantly on “Blue-Chip” high-end land opportunities and broad-acre land development sites.
