Garbo patriarch set to double his money in four years on $40m spread
Tony Tartak, founder of waste removal giant Bingo Industries, and his wife Mary are selling one half of their whole floor in Crown Towers for more than $40 million, which could see the couple double their money in just a few years. The stunning four-bedroom, four-bathroom has had a Rob Mills -redesign since the Barangaroo home was purchased off the plan, under Mary's name, with another lot on the same level for a combined $40 million in 2021. Lucky they kept it as two separate homes as it turns out it was not a bad investment. While they have no plans on moving from the building that they love, the size of the two units across the widest floor in the residential tower has become surplus to Tony and Mary's needs. It's not hard to see why. Spanning 420 square metres with majestic views over Sydney Harbour and beyond, the home, which offers house-sized proportions, packs a punch with two living rooms and two marble kitchens that have Sub Zero fridges, Wolf cooktops and ovens. It is selling through Steven Chen of The Agency and Luke Hayes of Colliers. Loading There have been a few apartments that have changed hands in the building with techie billionaire Robin Khuda and his wife Melea buying another pad between $20 million to $21 million from Carole Meers, the wife of former Sydney lord mayor, philanthropist and pub investor Nelson Meers AO, who passed away in 2022. Meanwhile, Ben Tilley, once right-hand man of James Packer, offloaded his apartment in the building too. It last had a price guide of $11 million. Bondi barristers
