It has been over several years that from time to time I have toyed with the idea of selling my home. Melinda Butcher has been patient and forthcoming with relevant market trends that has guided my decision on timing. So recently we went to auction! Great advice given the time a contract of sale can blow out to 2 to 3 months just to reach “unconditional” in the current COVID market as well as demand being greater than supply. Our campaign was short and sharp, a team approach with the Taylor’s agents and admin staff, with special mention to Rhett Nelson who’s trade background provided outstanding assistance to me during the open homes. The most significant factor in the Taylor’s approach was to appreciate my need for privacy and confidentiality when after the sale I asked for no marketing (chest pounding) which was carried out without question. Melinda is an absolute delight to work with, totally real, calm, measured and professional! I appreciate and am grateful for her service and extended professional friendship during this important decision and transaction in my life. Naomi Lawrence

Sadly real estate agents seem to have lost what I considered what and why we would go to a real estate agent in the first place - quickly directing you to a website. With Mel it was the opposite, she really listened to my needs and found the place I didn't even realize I was looking for. I truly have found my dream home in the perfect location and I couldn't not ask for more in the manner in which she dealt with me and the entire process , a big shout out to me and the entire team at Taylor properties -who certainly taylor to your needs

Trying to organise the sale of our property from interstate, I was unsure of who we would entrust with the sale. After speaking with a few agents, Mel was the one who stood out and I knew I could work with throughout the sale process. Mel put me at ease from the first time we talked and I was impressed with her enthusiasm, friendliness and knowledge of the real estate market. Mel is an excellent communicator and went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. I would sell through Mel again and again and can't recommend her highly enough. Thank you Mel for all of your help and expertise and we feel like we made a friend along the way.

Mel is professional, diligent and efficient. She keeps in touch constantly and shows a dedication to selling the property by assisting both seller and buyer with sound suggestions.

Mel knows the area well and was able to secure a good deal. However towards the end with so many date changes we were getting rather stressed and very anxious. But all ended well. Thanks Mel.

Our family feels incredibly fortunate to have met Mel. She didn’t just help us buy a property; she worked with us to help us source and secure the perfect home for our young family. Mel listened to what we needed and made our dream a reality. As anxious first time home buyers, we would have been lost without her. She was relational , extremely supportive and kept us informed every step of the way. It’s clear, what Mel does is more than just property, she’s all about people. The Whitsundays is fortunate to have this gem.

Cannot recommend Melinda enough. Her knowledge of the property market is outstanding and will stop at nothing to sell your property. Melinda called on many professional resources to ensure no stone was unturned to ensure our property sold. Faced with many hurdles along the way, she always kept a positive 'vibe' and kept us in the loop- this made us feel confident that the end result would be obtained. I would have absolutely no reservation in recommending Melinda to anyone looking for a professional, hard working, down to earth, resourceful Real Estate Agent.

I found Mel to be extremely helpful with me purchasing my first home. Nothing was too much trouble for her and she was always going above and beyond to help me out through the process. It was a great first time experience.

Ben and I engaged Mel to sell our investment property in Cannonvale and we are so happy we did! We found Mel to be very honest, hardworking, professional and kept us very informed and in the loop continuous throughout the time our property was listed. We had great success in the sale of our property and highly recommend anyone selling to contact Mel, it was an absolute pleasure working with her. Thank you, Ben and Jodie :)

We had nothing short of awesome service & support from Mel. She was very pro active from day 1 and continued to give us amazing service throughout the sale of our house. We recommend her to anyone who wants to buy or sell a property!

Mel is absolutely amazing! She is honest, experienced, hard working and reliable - going above and beyond for our family. We love her down to earth personality and no fuss approach to her work. Mel’s communication skills are second to none and her years of experience in the industry, meant she was able to answer any questions we had during this time. Not only was she a great realtor but she was able to provide good contacts for works we wanted to do around the house. We have no hesitation in recommending Mel any of your property needs!!

Mel is a rare gem in the Real Estate Sales Industry. I mostly admired her honest and good character, along with her dedicated work ethic and excellent communication skills. Mels Market knowledge is second to none, with a no nonsense, honest and friendly persona. Mel truly listens, and keenly matches the clients needs with the right vendor. Her personalised tips and techniques, gained through her wealth of experience, and willingness to go the extra mile, complement her excellence and her professionalism. Thanks Mel You are truly a gem!
