Buyer & Investor Resources

The key difference is who we represent. Traditional real estate agents primarily represent sellers and are legally obligated to get the highest possible price for the property. As your buyer’s agent, we work exclusively for you, the buyer. We’re legally bound to represent only your interests, helping you find the right property and negotiate the best possible terms and price.

While anyone can search for properties online, a professional buyer’s agent brings several advantages:

• Access to off-market properties not publicly listed

• Expert knowledge of local markets and property values

• Strong negotiation skills developed through years of experience

• Time savings by filtering properties to match your specific criteria

• Objective professional advice without emotional attachment

• Access to our network of industry professionals (solicitors, building inspectors, etc.)

• Protection from common pitfalls and costly mistakes

We provide buyer’s agent services throughout Queensland and New South Wales, with particular expertise in the Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, and Sydney metropolitan areas.

We specialise in:

• Owner-occupier homes

• Investment properties

• SMSF-compliant properties

The timeline varies based on your specific requirements and market conditions. Typically, from initial consultation to settlement, the process takes 2–3 months. This can be shorter or longer depending on your readiness and criteria.

Our fee structure is transparent and based on the service package you select:

1. Full-Service Package: A base fee plus a percentage of the purchase price

2. Negotiation-Only Service: A fixed fee for auction bidding or negotiation

3. Property Shortlist Package: A fixed fee for property search and shortlisting

You’ll pay an initial engagement fee to commence services, and the balance is due upon successful settlement.

For investment properties, our fees may be tax deductible or added to the property’s cost base. For owner-occupied homes, they generally are not. Consult your accountant for advice.

Our engagement fee covers the initial work. The remainder is only payable upon successful property acquisition. If we don’t find a suitable property, we can extend or conclude services as agreed.

If you find a property, we’ll still evaluate it, negotiate on your behalf, and manage the acquisition to ensure you get the best outcome.
