If you need your property sold, I wouldn’t look past Raine & Horne, and specifically Mel. She provided me with updates immediately after every open home, messaged me at the start of the week to discuss strategy, and gave me her honest feedback on any thought or concern I had. Thank you Mel! - Very Happy Buyer

We backed on Mel to guide us through the entire process. Not only is she empathetic, she is transparent as well which is number 1 quality as a real estate agent.

Selling a property can be a stressful experience, and every step, starting with finding the right real estate agent, is crucial. An agent needs to understand the seller's goals, help alleviate stress, streamline processes, and ensure a smooth transaction. I am incredibly grateful to Annabel and Paul of Raine & Horne Concord/Strathfield; they are two outstanding sales representatives. Throughout the sales process, Annabel and Paul went above and beyond to support both the seller (me) and the potential buyer. They maintained open and transparent communication, understood the needs of both parties, and facilitated timely consensus during negotiations, ultimately leading to the successful sale of my property, and achieved a good outcome for which I am extremely satisfied. More importantly, Annabel and Paul ensured that both the seller (me) and the potential buyer felt genuinely valued. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a professional real estate agent with extensive sales experience to ensure a smooth transaction from start to finish.

Paul and the team were a wonderful support in helping us getting the property ready for market. Amazing assistance sourcing and coordinating trades and services required to clear up my dad’s place and make it market ready. Shame the market turned right when it got to market but this is where Paul’s years of experience and negotiating skills came to the fore. Communicating clearly with us on changing market sentiment and laying out all the options and following through with our strategy. We always felt like we were getting it straight, no agendas, just the way it is.

He kept us informed every step of the way, worked hard to achieve a great result, and always made us feel confident that we were in good hands. We really appreciated his honesty, dedication, and genuine approach. Highly recommend Paul to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.

I had a great experience working with Paul as the lead agent. He was highly professional from the outset and brought a clear, well-thought-out strategy to the campaign. Paul’s communication was consistent and transparent, keeping me updated at every stage and ensuring I understood the reasoning behind each recommendation. His knowledge of the market was evident, particularly in how he positioned the property and guided pricing expectations based on real-time buyer feedback. What stood out most was Paul’s negotiation approach — calm, strategic, and focused on achieving the best possible outcome. He handled buyer interactions with confidence and created a competitive environment that ultimately worked in my favour. I felt well-represented throughout the entire process and would confidently recommend Paul to anyone looking for a capable and results-driven agent.

We had a fantastic experience working with Mel and her team at Raine and Horne. From day one, they were incredibly proactive — always one step ahead, anticipating what needed to be done and keeping the campaign moving forward with purpose and energy. Communication was outstanding throughout the entire process. We were kept informed at every stage, with clear updates after inspections, honest feedback from buyers, and thoughtful advice when decisions needed to be made. We never felt left in the dark, which gave us a lot of confidence during what can otherwise be a stressful time. Mel’s market knowledge was exceptional. She had a strong understanding of current buyer sentiment, comparable sales, and pricing strategy, which helped us position the property effectively. Her guidance was data-driven but also practical, striking the right balance between ambition and realism. Where Mel and her team really shone was in their negotiation skills. They handled buyer conversations strategically and professionally, creating competitive tension and working diligently to secure the best possible outcome. We truly felt they were advocating for our interests every step of the way. Overall, we couldn’t be happier with the result and would highly recommend Mel and her team to anyone looking for a proactive, knowledgeable, and highly capable real estate team.

We bought this house 22 years ago from Paul Milkovic and when we went to sell, all these years later, I only made one phone call and that was to Paul. We remembered him from 22 years ago! Paul is so personable that you feel like you’ve known him for years! He’s honest, professional and his knowledge of the area is second to none. He’s real and not a fast talking operator! We got an amazing result and couldn’t be happier! Amazing experience! Thank you Paul
Paul Milkovic
The agent was responsive and communicated clearly from start to finish. He had good knowledge of the market and provided helpful advice during the process. Overall, it was a smooth experience and I would recommend him.
