Paul Prior in all ways met our expectations with a positive outcome with our purchase of the property in Ballina. It has been a pleasure dealing with Paul.

I was impressed with Paul’s efforts during the marketing of my house (auction) and happy with the final sale result. He negotiated an $800k sale price on my I.P which was an excellent result based on the small room sizes and equally small land size. I was living abroad during the time of the sale and was able to converse with Paul via email. He mostly replied within 1 day of sending an email but sometimes 2 days or longer. Paul was responsive to all my requests and he helped me a lot during the entire process. I liked the way he kept the emails factual and to the point with minimal 'spin'. The most salient reason for recommending any Mullum vendor to use Paul (and his agency in Byron) is that he will always have listings in both Byron and Mullum; and therefore he can potentially bring Sydney (& interstate) buyers to your property in Mullum. We had a last minute Sydney buyer bidding at my auction and thus I think its better to use a Byron agent rather than the local ones. Many interstate city buyers only have Byron Bay on their minds when visiting the shire. However, Paul can market your house to them on the basis of it being better value for money compared to the high prices of Byron. Overall, I think Paul is a really helpful sales agent who will do his best for his vendors and purchasers. I did find the numerous requests for access somewhat tedious leading up to settlement. On reflection, he was just trying to do his best for the purchasers and to facilitate a timely settlement. On the day of the auction Paul helped me negotiate a high price executing an unconditional contract. I’m grateful for this and thus would recommend him to any vendor who wants to achieve a positive result.

Working in tandem with Tara Torkkola, Paul is one of that rare breed of agent who actually does everything he promises. He never takes the lazy agent approach of trying to get the vendor to lower their price just because the property doesnt sell early in the campaign. He is methodical and always follows through.

Paul is highly professional and intuitive agent. He has an outstanding knowledgeable of his market and he works tirelessly and in a most thorough manner to connect buyers and sellers. He possesses an energy and a drive that is invaluable. We were extremely happy with the result he achieved for us.

Paul was a solid and steady agent to work with. He was thorough in his explanations and was patient with us during the sales process. He was able to sell our home very quickly and negotiated a good price for us. Basically it was smooth sailing. We were thrilled! We would highly recommend Paul as an agent.

I used Paul to sell my property in Kings Rd Federal. At all times he was enthusiastic and encouraging about it. He gave me constructive ideas on how to prepare it before sale. He was always happy to drive the 25 kms out for inspections weekly and for individuals wanting an extra inspection it was never a problem. His calm, patient and focused manner led to a good sale price and my confidence in him. I would not hesitate to use him again for selling another property. I then bought my new property through him. Again he was happy to take me through at the times I requested and knowledgeable about comparative properties in the area.

Paul was able to locate the exact type of investment property we were looking for. His market knowledge is extensive. He negotiated the purchase and terms in a professional manner. I can highly recommend Paul for any of your Real Estate requirements.

We met Paul Prior two years ago while looking to buy the 'right' thing. We instantly related to him and he us. It was always a pleasure to talk with him, either when he called with some suggestions, or when he took our calls and our eager needs for answers to market specific questions. He seemed always available. Two years later we were really happy to ask Paul to act as our agent to sell our block of land. His professional and truly thorough approach filled my wife and I with great confidence and we achieved a better-than-hoped-for outcome. Thanks Paul.

Paul provided great background market info which got us the sale price we wanted. Regular updates after open houses & weekly updates provided us with the confidence Paul was the right agent.

We recently purchased a 140 acre farm in the Byron Hinterland through Paul Prior of Byron Bay First National Real Estate. Paul made the whole experience from the initial viewing, to secondary visits, questions for the vendor and final sale negotiation very easy for us. Purchasing the farm whilst still living in Sydney, it was important for us that we had an agent on the ground who was trustworthy, knew the area and was able to give us answers to many questions one has when planning such a "sea change". Paul offered on many occasions his time to not only show us the existing farm house, but also the land to to ensure we felt it was the right property for us. He was very informative and went out of his way to get answers when we asked questions to difficult to answer on the spot. Although Paul works for Byron Bay First National Real Estate, which is in the neighbouring shire to where we bought, we still felt that he was fully aware about important things to know in the Lismore council area. We have no hesitation in recommending Paul and Byron Bay First National Real Estate to anyone purchasing or buying a property in Byron and neighbouring shires.

Paul and Sharon professionals extraordinaire. Your dedication, hard work, caring and follow-up are just a few of the outstanding attributes both of you possess. You carried out the sale of my property in the most knowledgable and professional manner (always with a smile and a positive attitude), nothing ever was too much trouble and your follow-up was unbelievable. You made me feel as though my property was the only one you were looking after. That in itself makes you both very unique and special individuals. I will miss dealing with you both but rest assured that I already have and will continue to recommend your excellent service to new potential clients. Thank you both so much for an outstanding job well done! With my warmest wishes, Lucia Kowalski
