The Manly powerhouse is led by Directors Jon Morton and David Kaufman, alongside a high calibre team including Associate Directors Clay Brodie and Dan Hamilton, Advisor and Negotiator James Mason, and Sales Coordinator Lulu Hyett. While the brand is fresh to the area, the momentum is already undeniable.

Proven Results from the Outset

Even before the paint was dry on our new headquarters, the team was rewriting the local playbook. Operating without a physical office in the initial weeks, the crew secured 5 sales within just 28 days of launching. To date, the team has already transacted 6 properties, including a standout sale at 6/6 White Street, Balgowlah, which sold prior to auction for $2,700,000 which was well above its $2.5m guide; after just six days on the market. With a top sale price already hitting $4,106,000, the Northern Beaches team is proving that the WHITEFOX specialised approach to luxury real estate is exactly what the local market has been waiting for.

A Historic Foundation with a Modern Edge

Located in a prime position across from Manly Wharf, our new home is a striking Victorian style terrace built circa 1898. Situated in the heart of the Manly hustle and bustle and right next door to 4 Pines Brewery, the building is a masterclass in contrast. It balances historic charm with a refined and modern interior, offering a personality that is distinctly WHITEFOX.

Whether the team is arriving via the ferry or walking in from the local neighbourhood, the energy of the office is fuelled by its surroundings. 

From daily grinds at Barrel One and Cibaria to team lunches at Hugos or celebratory drinks at Felons, this team is deeply embedded in the local culture.

The Manly office, as with all our offices, does not plateau or allow complacency to set in. WHITEFOX is here to change the industry. Our brand is refreshed, exciting and energised - we bring a level of attention to detail and marketing sophistication that simply hasn’t existed on the Beaches until now.

Built on Connection

The expansion into Manly wasn't just a business calculation; it was born from a genuine alignment of values. What began as a series of relaxed interactions between David Kaufman and Marty Fox, culminated into a five-hour dinner with Charlotte Fox, Jon and Lulu, which confirmed their alignment.

The chemistry was immediate. That ‘click’ has now translated into a partnership and leadership style defined by consistency and transparency. Through daily huddles and open lines of communication, Jon and David have built a nimble, high-performance culture that feels more like a tight knit squad than a traditional corporate office.

WHITEFOX Manly is not just a new office. It’s a deliberate move into one of Australia’s most competitive coastal markets. We are here to set new benchmarks, elevate the standard of luxury real estate, and bring a fearless new energy to the Northern Beaches.
