Bronte Manuel

Bronte Manuel has known nothing but success since starting his real estate career in 2008.

Staying true to his mantra that the only way to do great work is to love what you do, Bronte has forged a reputation as one of South Australia’s premier property auctioneers and sales agents.

His industry achievements include:

2023 Winner, Golden Gavel Auctioneering Championships

2018 Winner, Real Estate Institute of South Australia (REISA) Auctioneering Championships

2018 Winner, REISA Local Residential Salesperson of the Year (Eastern/City)

2017 + 2018 Winner, Top 5 Australasian Auctioneering Championships

2015, 2016, 2017 Winner, REISA Auctioneering Championships

2014 Winner, Golden Gavel Auctioneering Championships

That initial Golden Gavel success made him the award’s youngest ever winner, while he’s also the only auctioneer to win the SA title in four consecutive years.

It has been Bronte’s unwavering passion for negotiation and preparedness to embrace cutting-edge sales and marketing techniques that have helped him reach such heights.

Combine those traits with a strict client-first approach and it’s a recipe that continues to deliver premium results.

Bronte’s energy and enthusiasm, combined with a deep understanding of the local property market and a down-to-earth personality, enables him to provide the very best advice to both buyers and sellers. His impressive list of recent sales is testament to that.

Raised on a fruit property in the Riverland, Bronte has strong country values that he applies to all aspects of his life.

He discovered a love of real estate at a young age and soon developed his auctioneering skills to accompany property sales.

"If you ask my family, they would say I’m obsessed with two things: property and talking with people," Bronte says.

As well as maintaining his status among the state’s elite real estate identities, Bronte and wife Genevieve Toop also assumed ownership of TOOP+TOOP Real Estate in 2019, a business founded by Genevieve’s father Anthony in 1985.

As the Owner and Director of Residential Sales, Bronte leads a high-performing group of sales partners who deliver industry-leading results for their clients.

Under Bronte’s guidance, TOOP+TOOP continues to be one of Australia’s most awarded real estate agencies.

The business was the first agency to be inducted into the Real Estate Institute of Australia’s Hall of Fame on three occasions.

It received that recognition after winning the Large Residential Agency of the Year Award, Marketing Agency of the Year and Innovation Agency of the Year award at the national level for three straight years between 2016-19. TOOP+TOOP also claimed the No.1 crown in 2014.

Bronte is also the proud father of two boys - Loxton, 4, and Archer, 2.
