CVA

What CVA does

CVA Property Consultants is a privately held, vertically integrated commercial real estate agency headquartered in Melbourne, Australia, founded in May 1994. The firm operates across five core service lines: Sales and Leasing, Asset Management, Owners Corporation Management, Development Consultancy, and Project Marketing, serving commercial property owners and investors, property developers, commercial tenants, and owners corporations across the Melbourne metropolitan area.

The company's delivery model is regionally organized, with four offices covering Melbourne's Northern, Southern, Eastern, and Western submarkets (the Western office in Laverton North opened in March 2022), supported by a Property Search Platform with virtual tour and video capabilities and a "Point of View" editorial content series. Operational scale comprises approximately 50 staff, including 12 Directors leading the Agency, Asset Management, Owners Corporation, and Development Consultancy divisions under founder/CEO Charles Cini and Managing Director Ian Angelico.

Revenue is generated through a mix of commission-based sales and leasing transactions, recurring asset management and owners corporation management fees, and project-based development consultancy and marketing retainers. Pricing is overwhelmingly transaction-based and quote-driven, with most listed properties marked "Contact Agent" and annual rental units typically priced between $15,000 and $65,000 per annum. CVA operates with no institutional investor backing, no disclosed funding rounds, and no M&A activity in the source data, reflecting a closely held, organically grown independent business.
