Burgess Rawson from CBRE has welcomed the return of Rick Jacobson, who re-joins the agency as a Senior Negotiator. 

Burgess Rawson Partner, Matthew Wright said Rick has been a key contributor to the firm’s national success, having transacted more than $400 million in commercial property assets across the eastern seaboard over the past four years. With broad experience across asset classes including convenience retail, medical, fast food, office and automotive, Rick brings both depth and versatility to the team. 

“His previous roles have equipped him with a strong practical foundation in the commercial property sector. Known for his passion for the industry and proactive approach, Rick has built a reputation for delivering outstanding results and forging strong client relationships.” 

Mr Jacobson said it’s great to be back at the agency. 

“This is where my career in commercial property really began, so returning now in a senior capacity feels both familiar and exciting. I’m looking forward to building on past successes, reconnecting with clients and continuing to deliver strong results alongside such a respected national team.” 

Having started his career in Sales Administration, Mr Jacobson was appointed as the agency’s first Sales Cadet — a position he held while completing the REIV Agent’s Representative Course and a Bachelor of Property and Valuation at RMIT. His trajectory since has been marked by consistent growth, moving into senior roles and leading numerous high-performing sales campaigns. 

He has played a critical role in supporting and executing Investment Portfolio Auctions, known for his professionalism, market insight and strong campaign management. His return strengthens Burgess Rawson’s presence across the eastern states and underscores the agency’s commitment to service excellence. 

Mr Jacobson has already hit the ground running with several listings in Burgess Rawson from CBRE’s upcoming Portfolio Auction campaign, including a United Petroleum–leased convenience retail investment in Tweed Heads. 

Tweed Shire, located at the southernmost end of the Gold Coast, is a thriving Northern NSW region that generated $1.03 billion in tourism expenditure in FY24. Its population is forecast to grow by 25% to approximately 126,000 residents by 2046, underpinning strong demand for housing, services, and infrastructure. 

The 1,801 sqm* Mixed Use Zone site is offered with a 12-year net lease to 2034, with options to 2064, and returns a current net income of $229,473 pa* + GST.
