## About
Capital Property Advisory (CPA) is an independent buyer's agency and property investment advisory firm operating across Perth, Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney, Australia.

Matthew is a Qualified Property Investment Adviser (QPIA®), an accredited REIWA Buyer's Agent, a Licensed Real Estate and Business Agent, a Board Director of Property Investment Professionals of Australia (PIPA), and a WA Executive Committee Member of the Real Estate Buyer's Agents Association of Australia (REBAA).
