Paul brings to the management of Ray White a diversity of experience and success.
Born in Zimbabwe, he was educated at one of the countries leading private boy's schools, Falcon College, before attending University in South Africa where he completed a Bachelor of Commerce degree, majoring in economics and marketing.
Declining a university scholarship to undertake his honours degree, he sought rather to start his working career and joined the SAPPI, one of the world's largest pulp and paper manufacturers. Paul was later employed by the South African Foreign Trade Organisation (SAFTO) where he spent a diverse and exciting four years developing international contacts during trade sanctions.
His dealings with international traders and exporters kindled his sales interest and in 1989 he opened his own real estate office in Cape Town, capitialising on this life-long interest in property. In 1994 Paul emigrated to Australia as Franchise Director with the Ray White Group - working with many of its 500 offices and espcially so in Queensland and Victoria.
In 1998 he purchased Ray WHite Aspley and in the short space of six years, transformed this into a multi-office network that is now ranked as one of the Top Ray White businesses in Queensland and has won numerous awards.
Paul's extensive real estate experience across Australia, as well as in South Africa where he personally concentrated on the top end of the market, credentials him well in handling some of Australia's finest realty, such as we find in the northern suburbs of Brisbane.
Paul and his wife Thelma (who manages the Bridgeman Downs office), have a daughter Paige, who is eighteen years old and completed her schooling at St Margaret's and Clayfield College in Brisbane before embarking on her tertiary education. When not working they enjoy cycling around Brisbane and as a family are mad keen skiers which takes them across to Canada and Japan whenever the opportunity arises.
At Ray White, we are very aware that our reputation is based upon the skill and dedication of our people who so clearly "make the difference". We know the service and advice you receive from our people will be of the highest order and that entrusting your real estate decisions to Paul will be in your best interests now and in the future.
