Cushman & Wakefield has appointed commercial property veterans Miron Solomons and Matt Pontey as co-heads of investment sales in NSW, in a strategic move to strengthen its position across Australia’s eastern seaboard.

The pair brings more than 40 years of combined experience, strong client networks, and a track record in Sydney’s most active investment corridors.

The duo’s appointment follows a breakout year for the firm’s Victorian division, which facilitated over $1.3 billion in transactions in 2024, reinforcing Cushman & Wakefield’s growth in private and institutional markets across Australia.

Cushman & Wakefield's investment sales team also closed 135 transactions valued at $2.3 billion across Australia last year, with a 300 per cent increase in sales.

In 2025, Cushman & Wakefield said the momentum continues across the country, with 23 properties already sold for over $220 million.

Chief executive officer of Cushman & Wakefield ANZ, Noral Wild, said that adding Solomons and Pontey to the team will support the company’s strength in providing a national investment sales platform.

“They are two of the most respected agents in the market, and their appointment reinforces our ambition to be the leading investment sales team in the country,” Wild said.

Solomons, a long-time holder of NSW’s highest commercial auction price, previously directed the national auction strategy at Colliers International Australia, focusing on Sydney’s commercial and insolvency markets.

“Cushman & Wakefield has demonstrated a clear commitment to building the most formidable investment sales platform in the country,” Solomons said.

“Joining a team that is setting a new benchmark for performance and client service is an exciting step.”

Pontey returns to a leadership role in the metro sector, a division where he previously served as director of Sydney metro sales at Colliers International, gaining recognition for his deep expertise in the eastern suburbs and city fringe markets.

“We’re incredibly energised by the opportunity to lead the next phase of growth in NSW,” Pontey said.

“This is about raising the bar and delivering standout outcomes for our clients.”

Cusham & Wakefield’s managing director for Victoria and head of investment sales in Australia, Luke Etherington, said that the new NSW appointments support the firm’s broader strategy to enhance its national capabilities.

“With Matt and Miron at the helm in NSW, we are delivering the strongest national investment sales capability in the country,” he said.

The duo has delivered more than $500 million in sales across the eastern suburbs in the past year alone.
