OBrien Real Estate was founded in 2010 by Dean O’Brien and his business partner Darren Hutchins, starting from a single office in Berwick, Melbourne’s southeast.
Dean O’Brien’s background growing up in regional Victoria instilled a deep focus on community, relationships, and customer care.
The business began with an emphasis on a people-first culture, extensive training, and professionalism.
Over more than a decade, OBrien Real Estate has expanded to over 40 offices in Melbourne and regional Victoria, earning a reputation for quality service, strong local connections, and a supportive franchise culture.
The founders prioritize long-term client relationships and community involvement, as exemplified by their OBrien Foundation which supports local causes.
