About Paul

As the head of Team Butcher, Paul’s primary focus has always been on his clients. His wealth of customer service knowledge originates from a successful, 20-year career as a chef before switching to real estate. No, don’t be fooled by his British accent, as, no matter what the property market does, he has probably seen it before. By now, Paul has lived in Wainuiomata and Lower Hutt for more than 13 years. His winning recipe is pairing his local expertise with a great sense of humour and genuine care for people. Paul’s clients especially love his ability to tackle and solve any issues as they arise. In his spare time, Paul still enjoys cooking for his toughest critics, his wife Lisa and their family. He also enjoys spending time with friends, and experimenting with his BBQ, and trying to make the perfect home brew. So, if you are after someone, who will take care of you on your real estate journey, while still calling ‘a spade, a spade’, pick up the phone now and ring Paul. You will not regret it.

Outstanding!

As first-home buyers, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience than the one we had with Team Butcher. From our very first conversation through to settlement day, the entire team was incredibly supportive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping us. The process of buying a first home can feel overwhelming, but Team Butcher made everything seem easy and effortless. Their communication was exceptional, they were always available to answer our questions, and they guided us through every step with confidence and care. A special mention has to go to Liam and Paul. Their professionalism was truly unmatched. They provided honest advice, and made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and enjoyable. Their expertise, patience, and commitment gave us complete confidence throughout our home-buying journey. We are beyond grateful for everything Team Butcher, Liam, and Paul did for us. We are now proud owners of our first home, and we couldn’t have achieved it without their dedication and support. We would highly recommend Team Butcher to anyone looking to buy or sell a property—you’ll be in the very best hands

Excellent Communication and Great Result

I recently sold a property with Liam and was very happy with the experience. Liam was hardworking, professional, and kept me well informed throughout the entire process. His communication was excellent, and he was always available to answer questions and provide updates. It was clear that Liam put a lot of effort into achieving the best possible result, and I was very pleased with the outcome. I would have no hesitation in recommending Liam to anyone looking for a dedicated and reliable real estate agent.
