Directors
The firm of Lemon Baxter Pty Ltd commenced operations in the South Melbourne area 25 years ago.
Chris Curtain
Licensed Estate Agent. As a Director and shareholder of Lemon Baxter since 1992, Chris is responsible for Commercial Sales and Leasing, specialising in the St Kilda Road, Queens Road and Southgate precincts.
Throughout his 20 year career, Chris has leased thousands of square metres of office space and is highly regarded within the industry, and his clients, for his professional acumen and focussing on the needs of both tenant and investor.
Chris understands that for many tenants it’s about removing the frustration associated with locating an ideal office space. Describing himself as a “frustrated architect”, Chris will oversee, if needed, the refurbishment and/or subdivision of office space to suit the tenant’s requirements.
In any commercial sales situation, the prudent investor needs to feel comfortable that the property can be leased should it ever become vacant. Through his extensive leasing experience, Chris has been able to give the confidence required to any prospective purchaser.
