Marcus Roddenby

Executive | Commercial

Marcus is a commercial executive with experience across a broad range of asset classes, including office, retail, hospitality, industrial and investment property. Working across Newcastle, Maitland and the broader Hunter region, Marcus has managed a growing portfolio of sales and leasing campaigns, from neighbourhood retail and fitted office accommodation through to hospitality venues, industrial assets and tenanted investments. His transaction experience has developed a strong understanding of the different commercial, operational and financial considerations that influence both occupier and investor decisions. Marcus takes a hands-on approach to each campaign, with a strong focus on market engagement, clear communication and maintaining momentum through enquiry, inspections and negotiations. His responsiveness and negotiation approach are also consistently reflected in client feedback, across both successful leasing and sales outcomes.

Hear what our clients say

We recently engaged Marcus from Commercial Collective to lease an office space. From the first interaction, I instantly knew Marcus would be our agent. He was extremely knowledgeable about the local market and delivered his advice in a very respectful way. He recognised the gaps in our knowledge and sought to educate & clarify before setting our expectations. Those expectations were that we could be vacant for 6+ months, given there was a lot of competing stock on the market at the time.  In literally two days, Marcus organised & held an inspection with a prospective tenant he had built a relationship with over the preceding months, and managed to secure HOA the same day! We were leased and tenants taking possession within two weeks of engagement - simply outstanding. This experience shows that results are what you pay for, and we're fortunate that Marcus & the CC team could deliver such an incredible result. Thank you team!

We are delighted to share our experience working with Marcus at Commercial Collective, who guided us through securing the lease for our new commercial premises. Honestly, without his support, we would not have been able to proceed. Marcus negotiated directly with the lovely property owners on our behalf, working through each issue as it arose and finding a path forward when things looked like they might stall. His negotiation skill and calm persistence made all the difference. He kept us informed and reassured throughout, explaining what each sticking point meant for us and what our options were, and used his understanding of both sides of the table to get us to a lease we were genuinely happy with. We are enormously grateful to Marcus for making this possible. We would recommend him and Commercial Collective without hesitation to any business navigating a commercial lease.

Having been with a previous agent in Maitland managing our property for many years we were hesitant when Commercial Collective took over their rent roll. However, we were wrong. Dominic Collins our property manager and Marcus Roddenby who found a buyer for the property have both been fantastic to deal with. Always responsive. We have no hesitation in recommending them.
Ivana Caruso
We would like to thank Marcus Roddenby and the team at Commercial Collective for their incredible support in selling our commercial building. They made the entire process feel seamless, kept us informed every step of the way, and achieved a result beyond our expectations. Their negotiation skills were outstanding, especially in the lead-up to auction day, and we always felt they genuinely had our best interests at heart. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Marcus and the team.

Marcus Roddenby was exceptional from start to finish. We had a few challenges along the way such as an extremely long valuation process & change of vendor name at the last minute but Marcus handled all matters professionally.

Marcus Roddenby and Brad Crouch from Commercial Collective were fabulous to deal with. I needed a tenant in our commercial property, and they were so efficient in putting together a marketing plan and within a week taking potential tenants through. The communication was constant and any questions I had was answered. Their knowledge in this field is great. We secured a tenant much quicker than we anticipated. I highly recommend them.
