Agent Profile

Doug Disher

Managing Director - Auctioneer

About me

Doug Disher began his real estate career in 1985 in the Sydney market and came to Brisbane in 1987.

His achievements in real estate to date include being fourth highest selling salesperson in Queensland and the top salesperson in the Western Suburbs for a major franchise group. On more than eight occasions he has been in the annual top ten in Queensland. He has twice won Advertiser of the Year and has won numerous marketing awards.

Doug is a licensed auctioneer and licensed real estate agent. He gained both these licences and the certificate of Real Estate Practices in 1989. He is also an accredited auctioneer of the Auction School of Victoria (1991). In the same year he was awarded the Auctioneer of Excellence Award, held by only 13 others throughout Australia.

November 1992 saw him win the prestigious state-wide, industry-wide Salesperson of the Year Award.

Working in the Western Suburbs since 1987 has provided Doug with extensive experience in marketing a wide variety of homes, from small workers’ cottages to large million-dollar plus riverfront properties.

Doug takes an active part in the real estate industry and served as Vice-President of the Western Suburbs of the Real Estate Institute of Queensland for several years. He is also a Justice of the Peace, NSW.

“I have known Doug Disher from the time I bought a house from him in Taringa in 2002. I have since engaged him on two occasions to sell properties for me and have utilised their rental services. I absolutely believe Doug achieved the best price in the market for an almost million dollar house I sold in 2010. I would recommend only daylight second in the industry. Doug, Sue and their team are the consumate professionals in the real estate game and I believe Doug and the entire firm base their day to day decision making on the best interests of their clients and the ethics which should, but not always, be shown in a difficult sales industry.

Doug’s business accumen and ethical standing in the industry make him one of the leaders. I have no hesitation in recommending him to friends, and have done so repeatedly.”

Testimonials

I sold my house in Taringa years ago through Doug and recently purchased a unit in St. Lucia though him. He is the consummate professional, the purchase was seamless and any problems or queries were handled by either himself or a member of his team in a prompt and efficient manner.
I would highly recommend Doug and his team at Doug Disher Real Estate.

A pleasant experience.
We has a positive experience with Doug and his team . They were, at all times, friendly and willing to share their extensive knowledge of the market and the area. After the auction Toby and Deb ensured that we had the information we needed to proceed with the purchase. We found them professional, readily communicative and efficient. I would not hesitate to use them again.

The sale of the century. After 31 years living in an old Queensland Cottage built in 1910, it was time to go into something modern. I loved that house and it has most of my adult memories ( good,great and bad).
But it needed lots of work to bring it up to this century, and my heart wasn't in it.
Doug and son Toby were aware of that from the start and made every step of the way stress free and smooth.
I applaud their professionalism, and transparency of every process related to me. Certainly Doug and Toby's knowledge of the real estate market was exceptional, and reflects their years of experience in the Western Suburbs.
I would highly recommend Doug Disher Real Estate to anyone wishing to buy in the area, and in fact anywhere in Brisbane.
Congratulations and Thank-you Team Taringa.

I have purchased several properties and sold one property through Doug Disher Real Estate and have always found the service to be excellent, very professional and seamless. Problems and questions are dealt with in a timely manner resulting in a very smooth transaction. I cannot recommend them more highly.

Tom

A very big thank you to Toby, Doug and the DDRE team for managing our rental unit for 22 years, as well as its very recent sale.

The DDRE team have been always very professional, efficient, and practical over the years; understanding the rental market, managing tenant concerns and unit wear and tear. When it came time to sell, Toby and Doug and their team know and understand the market so well. They provided us with practical presentation advice, great support for prepping the unit for sale, kept us up to date with preparation progress, as well as great communication during the sale, and their efforts resulted in our unit selling within a couple of days. They could not have been more helpful to us.

Thank you again, so appreciated. We wish you all well for the future and thank you for making our investment unit ownership and sale such a positive experience.
