March 12, 2019

British estate agency Purplebricks becomes major sponsor with Australian rugby league team, Melbourne Storm

"Purplebricks is reshaping the real estate market in Australia which was attractive to the club” explains the club’s chief executive Dave Donaghy.

"As a rugby league club … Melbourne Storm is certainly not afraid to be disruptive and creative and with its revolutionary business model in the real estate industry Purplebricks was a great fit for us. The partnership with Purplebricks is one we see can break new ground in a lot of ways and we are excited about working with them in the coming season.”

The hybrid agency’s chief executive in Australia, Neil Tavender, said Melbourne Storm - which already used the colour purple - was a natural fit to help drive awareness across the country.

PurpleBricks is an online real estate agent that helps its clients to sell, buy, and let their properties.

PurpleBricks provides a full estate agency service at a low cost because they've removed the expensive offices and fleets of cars that you see with traditional agents. Their one-off fee is payable when you instruct us but you can defer it for up to 10 months when you use their conveyancing service or until your property sells, whichever is sooner.
