Media release - 13th October, 2015

Experienced local real estate specialist, David Gray, has reopened the doors of one of South Australia’s leading southern real estate firms, Raine & Horne McLaren Vale, in a move that spells great news for local homeowners, buyers and investors.

“We are set to dominate property markets again in the McLaren Vale and the southern Fleurieu Peninsula region – after a short interlude – by reopening Raine & Horne McLaren Vale in a new location under the guidance of experienced agent and local identity David Gray,” said Michael McDonald, CEO, Raine & Horne South Australia.

“This is an important property market and we are delighted that David is reopening Raine & Horne McLaren Vale, which has been a significant office for our Superbrand in South Australia for many years.

“David’s focus and determination to get the best results for his clients has seen him among the top performers in the McLaren Vale region for several years now, and I’m very excited about the prospects of working with him and the team at Raine & Horne McLaren Vale,” said Mr McDonald.

Mr Gray, who has worked with the Raine & Horne group since 2001, alongside real estate industry icon and local identity Deb Tucker, said he is excited to be leading the new office.

“The feedback from potential customers in the McLaren Vale region is that they prefer to list their homes with a familiar real estate brand that has plenty of runs on the board,” said Mr Gray.

“It’s for this reason that we decided to keep the link with a well-recognised brand such as Raine & Horne.”

The team at Raine & Horne McLaren Vale will bring fresh ideas to the business of listing and selling real estate, but ultimately it will be committed to continuing to provide local residents with the same excellent service and exceptional results they came to expect when Ms Tucker was at the helm.

“Raine & Horne has a number of market-leading offices in this region, such as Raine & Horne Morphett Vale and Raine & Horne Victor, and we would like to emulate their award winning success and are already taking steps to achieve this,” said Mr Gray.

In addition, Mr Gray said the Superbrand’s broad range of innovative real estate products and customer service ethics were significant factors in his decision to re-establish Raine & Horne McLaren Vale.

“Raine & Horne’s superior branding, local heritage and unique database, which talks to over 1.2 million real estate consumers across the globe, are major attractions,” said Mr Gray. “In addition, we felt that the network’s core values in service and communication adhered in every way to the high expectations of our clientele in McLaren Vale and surrounding regions.”
