Testimonials

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

He knows the Whitsunday market backwards from numerous years of marketing all types of properties and most importantly Wayne is a genuine, honest professional to deal with. In my opinion any prospective Buyer or Seller would do themselves a favour in engaging his services.

I am sure glad we did.

Wayne was very helpful and responsive to requests for information.

He obviously knows a lot about the Island where I knew nothing, so I was very happy to have his help.

Heath and Rich epitomise a relaxed, yet very professional real estate experience. A combination that is most refreshing and formed a solid foundation throughout our sale process. Their marketing was exceptional, our property photos and video blew us away. Heath's communication was honest and efficient and he went above and beyond to look after our home during the opens. The combination of local knowledge, interstate experience and global exposure made Sotheby's Queensland an excellent choice for selling our home.

I would just like to compliment you and your team from Queensland Sotheby’s International Realty.... my wife and I were very impressed in what was discussed and the professional manner in which you presented your company.

Richard, I would like to express our sincere gratitude for the professional way you, Heath and Andy carried out this campaign with such great integrity and such pleasant personalities.

Lynn was fantastic to work with as her communication between both buyer and seller is rare, but integral in finding an agreement which suits both parties.

We were kept well informed across the process and supported well during any of the normal hurdles encountered whilst purchasing, particularly on Hamilton Island

I would highly recommend Lynn and will utilise her broad skill base again down the track.

Lynn's Market knowledge and experience was second to none. She was very efficient and has a very kind-hearted and sensitive nature. We enjoyed dealing with her enormously.

Lynn made investing in property on Hamilton Island remotely feel as stress free as possible.

She has great market knowledge and is friendly, efficient and hard-working, always willing to help overcome obstacles.

Great communication.

Wayne has an intimate knowledge of the Hamilton Island Market, properties and island history. We have dealt with Wayne twice now on two purchases and found him to be a straight up and down professional who does everything he can to facilitate a good result for all.

Wayne was very well up to date with the current market knowledge and area knowledge. Throughout the process we found Wayne ready to assist at any time of the day. Wayne went out of his way to make the process as smooth as possible for us - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Enthusiastic, professional and very pleasant to deal with is the way i would describe Jan Goetze and her team. I am so thankful to have secured her services in the quick sale of our property. Prompt sale. Good results.

I would highly recommend her services to anybody wanting to sell their property.

We have known Wayne for over 20 years now. Our first purchase was back in 2001.

We have had many transactions on the Island and have always used Wayne; we consider him a friend whom we trust and know can do a great job for us.

We have bought 3 properties and sold 1 through Barbara over the past 3 years. Barbara and her team are very professional and each transaction was handled to our complete satisfaction. We would happily recommend Barbara to anyone wanting to buy or sell their property in FNQ.

Caroline's knowledge of the market is second to none, her attention to details and wanting the best for both the seller and the buyer is to be admired.

Caroline was very professional and answered all queries effectively and efficiently. Nothing was too much trouble and helped us make an informed and suitable offer. Happy to buy or sell with Caroline.

Great knowledge and experience in the local market and environment. Always welcoming to approach and never left you hanging for a return call or information. Professional, efficient and fun to deal with and got the job done!

Having been buying and selling many homes over my life, I can honestly say that I have met a real estate agent who excels in being trustworthy, honest, factual, realistic and communicates with transparency and honesty. Caroline is a decent person who works hard for her clients. She knows the Port Douglas market and is totally professional with everything she does. I am delighted to have been her client.

Great knowledge and experience in the local market and environment. Always welcoming to approach and never left you hanging for a return call or information. Professional, efficient and fun to deal with and got the job done!

Caroline is one of the best agents I have ever come across. She responded to every query I had in a timely manner...no over the top sales pitch but straight to facts. Although she was engaged by the vendor I felt she was all about a win/win deal. She assisted my family in getting our dream holiday villa in Port Douglas.If I ever need an agent in Qld, she will be the first person I call. Thank you so much Caroline...you are the best of the best!!!

Caroline’s market knowledge was excellent. She was highly professional and responsive. Her attention to detail was outstanding.

In the real estate industry, there are many agents who are nothing more than ‘order takers”. Fortunately for us, we commissioned Caroline Yarr to sell our property. We believe the hard working professionalism Caroline displayed was the reason we were able to very successfully sell our property in such a short space of time. When next we need the services of an agent, we would not hesitate to, once again, retain Caroline because she really does put in 100% effort. She is very enthusiastic.

Caroline was terrific to work with. Her transparency and honesty was refreshing and made doing the deal as stress free as possible. She was extremely responsive and worked hard to get the best price for the vendor but be very fair and honest to us in the process. I would be very happy to deal with Caroline again and would gladly list our property with her in the future.

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.

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.

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.

Barbara was attentive, knowledgeable and polite. She moved quickly to secure our next property in an aggressive market. Nothing was too much trouble for her which made the process easier for us. We will go to Barbara again in the future.

The first person who walked through our house with Barbara Wolveridge bought it. We couldn’t have asked for a better result from any agent. Barbara has the knack of knowing which property will suit a potential buyer. She knows the Port Douglas and surrounds market better than anyone and has a wide network of clients. She gave us sensible advice on presenting our house for sale and throughout the negotiation process. Selling a house can be a stressful business. Barbara was a calming influence and took much of the stress out of the experience thanks to her positive personality. Satisfaction rate 100%.

Selling our house with Barbara was a breeze. She vetted potential buyers extremely well and achieved the selling price we were after. Always professional, punctual and proactive, she guided us through the process of selling using her vast knowledge of the market. Her networking skills are outstanding! Barbara was the right person to get the job done and she delivered.

If you are looking to sell your house, I can definitely recommend Barbara Wolveridge. After recently selling our property in Port Douglas prior to auction date I can say that her dedication and commitment was outstanding. I would choose her again.

My Husband and I were in Port Douglas on holiday with friends, we had only visited Port Douglas 30 years prior and a lot had changed from then. We walked past a house for sale which grabbed our interest and we called Barbara on the off chance we could have an inspection with no real intention of purchasing but rather to get a feel of the market. Barbara was extremely obliging and attentive, she opened the house up with a moment’s notice and was very forthcoming, answering all our enquires promptly and providing projections and costings and showing us other properties for comparison. We bought the house 48 hours later, thanks to Barbara making herself available, promptly contacting the vendors and negotiating a deal.We found Barbara to be highly efficient in contract negotiations, she came to an agreement which was a fair outcome for ourselves and the vendor. Barbara also went above and beyond the purchase of the house. She assisted us with recommendations for solicitors and insurance agents. We are pleased to recommend Barbara Wolveridge to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

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.
