About Renato

I’ve spent the last 15 years living in Melbourne’s North East with my wife of 20 years, Belinda, and our five wonderful children. We’re all very involved in the local community and I love being able to share in their sporting and school activities whenever I can. With my friendly and approachable nature, I’m able to share my in-depth knowledge of the area easily with prospective buyers. I believe this understanding of the district is key to building trust between myself and my clients. It’s something I take great pride in, as I want my clients to feel confident and reassured throughout the entire process. I’ve worked hard to build a reputation based on authenticity and genuine care for my clients. I’m always there for them, even after the sale, offering support and advice when needed. I firmly believe in the words of Roy T. Bennett: “Listen with curiosity, speak with honesty and act with integrity.” These principles guide everything I do. As a dedicated professional, I’m passionate about negotiating the best results for my clients. I enjoy engaging in conversations and building relationships that make the process smooth and enjoyable. My motto is, “Success does not come to you, you go to it,” and I live by it every day, working tirelessly to help my clients achieve their property goals.

Highly Recommend Renato

We recently purchased through Renato and couldn’t be happier with the experience. In a market where buyers can sometimes feel like an afterthought, Renato stood out for his transparency and genuine fairness throughout the entire process. From our first interaction, he was upfront about the property, the vendor’s expectations, and where things stood — no games, no pressure tactics, no misleading price guides. He gave us the information we needed to make a confident decision and was consistently honest even when the conversation required difficult discussions. Negotiating a property purchase at this level is stressful, but Renato made it feel straightforward and respectful. He treated us as serious buyers and engaged with us accordingly. If you’re buying or selling in the Viewbank and Banyule area, Renato is the agent you want in your corner. We’d work with him again without hesitation.

Fantastic work Renato

Renato was not only professional but very down to earth and felt like a part of family the moment he stepped into our home. There was no BS from him which we appreciated. He exceeded our expectations and we thank you Renato for your hard work.

Super friendly and informative.

We had a great experience working with Renato and his team from start to finish. Their professionalism, communication, and attention to detail really stood out throughout the entire process. They took the time to understand our needs, offered honest and insightful advice, and always made themselves available to answer any questions. They provided Trade contacts to do some renovations to get our house ready for sale which made the process seamless, and the quality of work was excellent. We were impressed with their dedication and transparency. I always felt informed and confident in every decision, thanks to their clear explanations and regular updates. They handled everything smoothly and efficiently, making what can often be a stressful process feel easy and well-managed. I would highly recommend Renato and Barry Plant Macleod to anyone looking to buy or sell property. Their expertise, integrity, and friendly approach truly set them apart. Steve & Joanne Doherty

Experienced agent with such a personalised approach.

As an elderly couple selling our family home for the first time, we could not have found a better agent than Renato Barra. It was an absolute pleasure to deal with him not only for the professionalism, extensive knowledge and experience he displayed but more importantly for his understanding of our feelings and needs at this stage in our lives. Renato walked us through every step of the process patiently and kept us constantly informed and updated on the progress. Renato’s commitment and expertise resulted in the timely and successful sale of our home at the end of the campaign and we are so relieved and grateful. We highly recommend Renato.

A Trusted Agent Across Multiple Sales – Thank You Renato Barra

Renato Barra did an outstanding job selling my mum’s home. From the very beginning he was professional, knowledgeable and incredibly supportive through what was a very emotional process for me. Our experience with Renato goes back a number of years. We originally purchased a home where Renato was the selling agent, and later when we sold our own home we chose to work with him again. This time, when it came to selling mum’s home, it wasn’t even a question — we trusted Renato completely and knew he was the right person to guide us through such a sensitive sale. Renato handled everything with care and respect, kept us well informed at every step, and worked hard to achieve a great outcome. His communication was excellent and we always felt confident that he had our best interests at heart. I am incredibly grateful for the way Renato managed the sale and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him — he’s someone we have trusted across multiple property transactions and would happily work with again in the future.
