Property industry rallies for flood victims
The Queensland property industry has rallied behind fund raising efforts for the Premier's Disaster Relief Appeal, with a benefit to be held on February 17.
CB Richard Ellis will coordinate the Property Industry Flood Relief Benefit with the Property Council of Australia, supported by The Australian Property Institute, HIA, Master Builders, Planning Institute Australia, Shopping Centre Council of Australia and the Urban Development Institute of Australia.
CBRE's Senior Managing Director, Queensland, Bruce Baker said up to 30 sponsors were being sought for the function, which will include a major charity auction.
More than a dozen property groups have already agreed to each provide $10,000 in sponsorship.
"The devastation caused by the recent floods in Queensland has really galvanised our clients and peers to join together to support a very worthy cause. As a group we can make a difference and the support we have received demonstrates the strong spirit within our industry."
