EP 15... Jake Moore - Cooley Auctions

Jake Moore is an auctioneer & partner of Australia's largest independent auctioneering company, Cooley Auctions. With a background as an apprentice chef in some of Sydney's finest restaurants and hard working parents who guided him on the right path from the outset, he learned the value of putting in the work early in life. As a result, he is extremely dedicated to his craft, has worked with the country's best estate agents and has been privileged to call in excess of 3,500 auctions... all at just 30 years of age.

Having sold $4.5 billion worth of property value, including 200 properties over $5M & 57 properties over $10M, he has an enviable resume that even the most experienced auctioneers would be hard pressed to match.

He is affable, honest and tremendously grounded for somebody who has already achieved so much. Get to know Jake on a more personal level - please enjoy!
