I met Ben 4 years ago when I moved to the Gold Coast. I was very impressed with his professionalism with the local market. Over the years I have watched his progress and he has been very active. He's listed and sold more properties here than any agent I've known. His personality makes it easy to communicate, and his knowledge and advice about property trends have guided when I purchased my investment property. I'm now looking at purchasing another unit and will only work with the best in the area.

My wife and i recently purchased a property in Southport. We were interested in buying in the area and the first property we looked at Ben was the agent. We were immediately impressed by his knowledge of the area and subsequently he was able to show us other properties he had listed in our price range. Although we were unable find what we wanted initially Ben kept in touch and was finally able to find us a property we loved at a great price. During all our dealings with Ben he was always on time, kept us informed and was always able to answer any questions or concerns we had. In short if you are looking to buy or sell in the Southport area I wouldn't hesitate to recommend using Ben as your agent.

I had the pleasure of engaging Ben O'Brien and Samantha Matherson to sell my unit in the Portia Building at Sundale Southport recently. I have purchased and sold several properties over the past several years on the Gold Coast and this young man was head and shoulders above anyone I have encountered to date. His knowledge and honest approach about the area, market and prospective purchasers was incredible. When he said he would meet with me, he did so promptly and always gave feedback on anyone who had inspected my unit. He always had a positive attitude and is a fine young man for any business to have in their employ.

10 out of 10 performance from Ben - couldn't rate him any higher for his professionalism, communication, dedication and just for being so personable & understanding. We felt very well represented in negotiations. Really appreciated Ben's efforts in getting the sale over the line.

Ben, thank you for being so helpful in my recent purchase. . Your punctuality and pleasant manner are very much appreciated.

Hi ben thank you for all that you did - you are a gentleman and a credit to the Ray White realestate organisation. I would not hesitate in recommending you to other people. Your attitude and relaxed but professional handling of our conversations helped me . Thank you very much - I hope you keep having a successful career - mel Coffman and Michael Hogan

I recently purchased a property through Ben. I found him to be professional and trustworthy. Ben's calm, measured aproach is extremely reassuring in what can be a stressful process. He has excellent communication skills and consistently kept me updated through the process. I would strongly recommend Ben to others. Thank you again Ben for all your help.

Ben is a great communicator and strategist. He also keeps his finger on the pulse. We would recommend him any day for real estate ventures. Well done. Cheers Di Broome

We met Ben when searching for properties on realestate.com.au. This was after eight months of casual to intense surfing and at a time when our house had found new owners. Ben had a selection of properties that were ticking our search requirements. We had just about decided on one of his properties when he pulled another out of a hat. Bingo....We had found a property that ticked all boxes ........and more. He is knowledgeable, helpful, available, and his manner is pleasant at all times. Ben showed patience and an interest in us as customers and treated us as friends. We highly recommend him and his professionalism. Ross Miller and Jon Kelly

If you are on the path of buying or selling a property and you encounter a man named Ben O’Brien along the way you have met with good fortune. In Ben you get truthful, direct, communicative, responsive, accurate with detail, friendly while respectful of both the seller’s and the buyer’s needs and expectations, and if you search the ‘Sold’ pages at www.realestate.com.au Ben sells properties. Our first contact with Ben was in the street, on the pathway. Over a period of months we viewed several apartments, learning, before making a decision. There was never a glimmer of pressure from Ben. After making an offer that was accepted Ben stayed in contact throughout the purchase process. Settlement was scheduled for 3pm. Confirmed completed by our Solicitor O’Keefe Mahoney Bennett (OMB) at 3.05pm. Ben was in the foyer at 3.15pm to hand us the keys! Ben collected the selling commission but we know we struck the jackpot meeting Ben O’Brien along the way! Laraine & Bob.

Ben was a pleasure to work with. Right from the word go he was very upfront and answered all my questions regarding the sale process and what his strategy would be to successfully sell my apartment. He has a very kind. friendly and honest manner and I was able to fully trust him throughout. At all times I knew he was working hard on my behalf to achieve a good outcome. He was great at keeping me fully updated at all times. I particularly valued that I never felt pressured to accept any offers that came in until they met my terms. Ben had great knowledge of the market and local area, and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

I have bought and sold many homes over the past 30 years and I could honestly say that Ben is one of the very best that I have ever dealt with. We had never met Ben before I saw the apartment on realestate.com.au, but from the moment we enquired about it, Ben was so accommodating. He couldn't have been more understanding and caring of our needs and circumstances to help us purchase our new home. I would happily recommend him to anyone.
