The TOOP+TOOP family is deeply saddened to announce the passing of their beloved founder, Anthony Toop. With heavy hearts and profound gratitude, they remember a man whose impact stretched far beyond business — a man who was not only a visionary entrepreneur but also a devoted husband, father, Poppa, mentor, and friend to so many. Anthony’s life was one of passion, innovation, and dedication, and his legacy continues to shape both the real estate industry and the many lives he touched.
For nearly four decades, Anthony devoted his boundless energy, creativity, and compassion to TOOP+TOOP, the company he built from the ground up with the belief that excellence begins with people. From the earliest days of the firm, he instilled a culture that valued integrity, innovation, and genuine human connection. Anthony believed that real estate was never just about property — it was about people, dreams, and trust. His vision transformed the way South Australians bought and sold homes, setting new benchmarks for professionalism and client care across the industry.
Anthony’s leadership was bold, forward-thinking, and deeply human. He pioneered new ways to market property long before digital innovation became the norm, always looking for better ways to serve his clients and community. Under his guidance, TOOP+TOOP became a household name synonymous with excellence and integrity. His commitment to doing things differently — to questioning norms and setting higher standards — redefined real estate in South Australia.
Beyond his professional success, Anthony was known for his warmth, generosity, and humility. To his family, he was the heart of their world — a loving husband, proud father, and adoring Poppa whose presence brought joy and laughter into every gathering. To his colleagues, he was a mentor and role model, offering wisdom, encouragement, and unwavering support. He nurtured countless careers, guiding young professionals with patience and inspiring them to lead with authenticity and compassion.
The TOOP+TOOP team reflects fondly on the many lessons Anthony imparted — the importance of integrity, the courage to innovate, and the value of treating everyone with respect and kindness. His influence can be felt in every corner of the business he built, from the culture of collaboration to the pursuit of excellence that remains central to the company’s ethos.
In a heartfelt message, the team shared, “We will miss him greatly. His legacy lives on through the strong foundations and values he instilled into us. RIP AT.”
