5 Star Effort Everytime

We have known Paul for several years, and he has successfully negotiated and transacted four properties for us. His care, attention, creativity, and sheer effort are impressive and very rare amongst agents.

It would be difficult to imagine using another agent

Paul has successfully transacted five properties for us and other members of our family over the years.

His care, attention and negotiating skills on both the buy and sell side in our view is without equal among estate agents.

Outstanding in Sales and Marketing

We have known Paul professionally for over 20 years and has conducted multiple transactions for us. Some highly sensitive and complicated to the point very few agents could take on and successfully execute.

He is an outstanding sales and marketing operative……. Probably the best we have ever seen.

Brilliant Agent - 5 Star

Lovely to hear from you Paul and we speak about you often, and would you believe we have been here 5 years now.

We are so grateful you did what you did to sell our home and help us into our new home here in Bardon.

Our young son is doing much better here and he is happy and safe.

Please keep in touch

Extensive Referral Network & Database in Sydney & Melbourne

I have worked with Paul over a number of years. He’s proven to be a high-level performer in the apartment market, with an extensive client and referral base across the country, and in particular Sydney and Melbourne. He has a strong skill set, shows great customer service and is amongst the most accomplished and capable agents I work with.

Excellent Communication

I am a sophisticated investor based in Sydney and I was referred to Paul some time ago. We have since purchased a $4.5 million holiday home as well as an investment property from Paul.

Paul keeps in touch with us and informs us regularly on how our properties are performing.

Could not have received better assistance

Mashelle’s local knowledge of the area we chose was outstanding, very professional and knowledgeable, super friendly and she went above and beyond to help us with so much before and after our purchase. Could not have received better assistance.

 
Mission Possible!

I am developing two luxury beach front homes at Woorim, an hour north of Brisbane - and needed to sell one off the plan. Woorim is largely an discovered gem - a beautiful 25km stretch of unspoilt white sand and the closest patrolled surf beach to Brisbane, but without the reputation of the Sunshine Coast to the north or Gold Coast to the south. The product that I am producing - 4 level oceanfront homes each boasting 5 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, 3 separate balconies, multiple indoor and outdoor living areas, private lift and swimming pool - is currently without peer in the idyllic location. And so the mission for Michael Vettoretto, Lynn Malone and the team at Sotheby’s International Realty was this - sell a luxury beach home that does not yet exist, at a price almost $1 million higher than the suburb record, in the middle of the worst health and financial crisis the world has ever seen, and all while interstate and international buyers cannot travel to see it. Impossible? No, possible. Despite listing in June 2020 during the height of the COVID pandemic, Michael remained positive throughout and believed in the product and the pricing. While other agents might have suggested a price reduction to achieve a sale in what was difficult market circumstances, Michael remained steadfast in his view that the property was well priced and represented fair value for the buyer. While the property took a little bit longer to sell, the final result was a sale at full asking price, a new suburb record, and a very happy seller and a very happy buyer. Mission possible.

Mashelle has been amazing and very dedicated and totally professional

It has been such a pleasure working with Mashelle. She has sold many of my homes over the years and always worked very hard on my behalf to achieve an excellent result.

She has a very open and inquiring disposition and always achieves both the buyers and sellers expectations.

I would highly recommend her after sales service and attention to detail which is sadly lacking in many Gold Coast agents.

One of the most professional agents I've had the pleasure to deal with...

I believe Kim has not only shown an ability to build a highly credible relationship with myself, the client, both also the eventual buyer...as a property developer I come in contact with sales agents on a regular basis and have had both good and bad experiences over the years. I'm pleased to have had Kim marketing my property to it's eventual sale . I felt he gave the property his undivided attention and never lost enthusiasm over a fairly protracted process lasting five months. He reported back to me on a regular basis keeping me updated with honest feedback and offering suggestions , something which I appreciate.

Well done.

Thank You!

We moved into our property exactly one year ago, and we just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you again for your huge help for us to get this home. We have had a fantastic year here, we love every second of living here, and we are very grateful for you, as it couldn't have happened without you.
