Rob Taylor
Expands The Empire
After a successful six years in business, Taylors Property Specialists is charting new waters with its expansion into Proserpine, a key market which owner Rob Taylor, has earmarked for extensive growth.
Purchasing Whitsunday Realty earlier this year, Rob’s strategic business plan identifies a young, dynamic element coming into the Proserpine market, alongside future overall growth of a broader region set to boom in the coming years.
“We’ve got a really good market share that we are proud of, but we were keen to make a change. It’s not about being the biggest, but there’s an opportunity to come in and do something different in a new area, and that’s what excites us.”
Having worked in real estate for over 20 years, Rob is a seasoned veteran in the industry who leads his business with integrity, dedication, and performance. Over the past six years he has nurtured a strong dynamic team with a vibrant culture and cohesive work ethic.
“When you walk through the door this is your work family, and this office is your work home,” said Rob.
“Everyone who works here has virtually identical moral standards and that’s the reason the broader business works so well.”
Launching as an independent real estate agency six years ago, Taylors Property Specialists has always been determined to do things a little differently. Rob remembers that when he started out in real estate, he was among the first to use his profile picture on signs and create a personal brand in the region. He loves setting trends and staying ahead of the game.
One trend he is witnessing now is a new, young demographic moving to Proserpine. At just 20 minutes from Airlie Beach, and a lot more affordable, Proserpine is quickly becoming known as the ‘place to live’. Likening it to some of the old Brisbane suburbs, Rob has witnessed young couples purchase old Queenslanders and spend their weekends renovating, creating beautiful houses and strong investments along the way.
Leading one of the most respected real estate agencies in the region, Rob is at the helm of a highly dynamic, highly valued and much-loved local brand that continues to evolve and expand with the community it serves.

Natalie Stuchbree
Senior Property Manager
The driving force behind the Property Management team, Natalie started with Taylors in 2019, when she was brought in to establish the residential rental department.
Under Natalie’s direction, the leasing department has expanded and developed to the point of requiring four full time property managers, administration and support staff and a large commercial portfolio within five years.
More than just a transaction, Natalie believes that every interaction is personal, and it is this attitude that adds deeper meaning to her services, and one that clients appreciate.
By using effective communication and a commitment to integrity, Natalie’s team builds
lasting relationships with both their lessor clients and tenant customers alike, ensuring their needs are met to a very high standard.
“For me, it isn’t just about leasing properties; it’s about helping people to achieve their goals, whether it be increasing their wealth through their investment portfolio or settling into their new home,” she shared.
“I believe in the power of teamwork and empowering my staff to draw upon all of our experiences to cultivate an environment where everyone can thrive.
“At Taylors, we don’t just lease properties; we aim to find the right person for the right property by listening to our customer’s needs and working together to find solutions.
“Ensuring each interaction is infused with professionalism, warmth, and a touch
of fun helps us to achieve our goals.”
