About Mario

When the time comes to select the right agent to assist you with your sale, it can often be difficult knowing how to measure each agent’s suitability. However, if enthusiasm, dedication and a genuine commitment to achieving results that exceed your expectations are anything to go by, then Mario Munafo is certainly the agent you should talk to. Mario first joined the Barry Plant Group back in 1997, rising through the ranks from his Real Estate Institute traineeship, through playing a key role as a highly productive member of the very successful sales team, accordingly earning the accolades of the team by being appointed as Sales Manager. His achievements didn’t end there, finally becoming the Sales Director of the highly recognised and respected Barry Plant Group. Mario desire to become a seasoned Auctioneer in the local area started at an early stage in his Real Estate career. Mario successfully completed his Auction training and has competed in Auction competitions to continually test his skills to ensure he delivers and performs at an optimum level for his clients. However, his passion for exemplary customer service goes back even further, having spent his younger years learning the true meaning of service in his family’s restaurant. Having lived in the Waverley area all his life and educated at Mt Waverley Secondary College, Mario takes great delight in sharing his many “insiders tips” with buyers to ensure they fully appreciate all the lifestyle benefits that each property provides. When it comes down to assessing agents, however, perhaps the most effective way is to ask those who have gone before you. So here are a couple of quotes from some of Mario’s clients: “Mario was extremely professional, positive, courteous and knowledgeable. Mario obviously possesses the two key elements that make a successful salesman – know your product and know your client”. and: “If enthusiasm and commitment to show clients how well he can look after them is important, then Mario is the one you should talk to.” With Mario Munafo and the Barry Plant team working on your behalf, you can look forward to a sale that is as rewarding as it is relaxing, and isn’t that what we’re all looking for?

Professional and likeable agent

We have all seen the movie an “Officer and a Gentleman”. Now we have witnessed in Mario Munafo, a “Professional and a Gentleman”!! From beginning to the end of the campaign, it has been an absolute pleasure to deal with Mario. His exceptional professional qualities stood out whilst demonstrating a warm, friendly persona and sensitivity to our emotions on selling the family home. He happily listened, communicated regularly leading up to the auction, provided solid information and guidance, and finally delivered an outstanding result on auction day, which, much to our delight, exceeded our expectations. We would like to extend our gratitude to Mario and particularly the delightful Zuzka Duskova for her diligence, support and pleasant personality. Together they make an excellent team. In conclusion, we would strongly recommend Mario and his team at Barry Plant Mount Waverley to look after your best asset.

Mario Munafo of Barry Plant Mount Waverley

I am writing to thank you for the excellent result achieved on the Auction day of a sale price being more than $100,000 above my reserve. We first met around two years ago following the successful Auction of a property that you held not far from my house. At the time I had been dealing with one of your competitors who shall remain nameless, I was looking for an alternative agent and I was fortunate to have found one in Barry Plant. Mario, I will just say that throughout the long period leading up to the auction you were always there for me with your advice and support without the pressure tactics that so many sales people seem to resort to these days. Your professionalism and dedication plus motivating me to continue with the preparation of my property finally paid off. For your tireless efforts, my thanks to you for achieving such an excellent result.

Highly recommend Mario Munafo for selling property

The selling your family home is always a harrowing experience but more so when the sale is associated with the passing away of a family member. After interviewing 3 local agents, we selected Mario as he was considerate of our personal situation and understood that we had high expectations for the sale of our family home. He did not pressure us with high sales tactics and we never felt that he was just after a 'sale'. We decided to list our house for sale through auction so it was important to us that the auctioneer was also the person who would be selling the property. During the build up to the auction Mario kept us up to date with regular reports on market expectations and interested parties. On the day of the auction his experience in reading the buyers was integral in obtaining the price we wanted. I would highly recommend Mario and would engage him again if we consider any other properties in the Waverley area.

A+ Professionalism

We are so very impressed with the Professionalism and service we received from Mario Munafo on the recent sale of our property. He was an absolute pleasure to deal with and he ensured that he communicated with us throughout the whole process. He worked very hard and we received an excellent result on the Auction Day. He was meticulous with appointments and was always on time. His experience on property presentation and knowledge of the property market was beyond any other advise from other agents. He presented well and was a real pleasure to deal with and we will recommend him to my friends and family.
