Ray White Real Estate chairman Brian White has ruled out an IPO. CFO Andrew Jamson says White hopes Australia’s largest real estate firm will remain a family-owned company into the fifth generation. Meanwhile, McGrath Limited’s shares are trading at around $A0.90, compared with an issue price of $A2.10 in late 2015, while founder John McGrath resigned as CEO in August 2016. Another family-owned real estate firm, LJ Hooker, dropped plans for an IPO in 2016.
