FAQs

Got questions? We have the answers.

What is a buyers agent?

A buyers agent is a licensed real estate professional who represents the buyer in a property transaction. Unlike real estate agents who work for the seller, buyers agents work exclusively for the buyer, helping them find, negotiate, and purchase properties that meet their specific needs and goals. We provide expert advice, market insights, and handle all aspects of the buying process to ensure a smooth and successful transaction.

How do we get paid?

Our buyers agent fees are paid by the buyer. These fees can vary depending on the level of service and the complexity of the purchase. We discuss our fees upfront, so there are no surprises. Many buyers agents will charge a percentage of the purchase price although we are also open to fixed fees and performance based fees which can be discussed further.

Are buyers agent fees tax deductible?

For a number of clients in the past, our fee or a portion of our fee has been tax deductible depending on the purchase type. We recommend consulting with your accountant or tax advisor to understand how this applies to your specific situation.

What areas do we buy in?

We primarily focus on the Sydney metropolitan area, where we have extensive knowledge and experience. However, we can also assist with purchases in other parts of New South Wales and beyond, depending on your needs. We have affiliate office interstate so can assist in these areas as well.

What is our experience like?

Our team has extensive experience in the real estate industry, particularly in Sydney. We have successfully helped a wide range of clients, including investors, owner-occupiers, and developers, to achieve their property goals. Our expertise spans residential, commercial, and development properties, giving us a comprehensive understanding of the market. Our team certainly walk the talk with having personal property portfolios and also undertaken numerous development projects.

How long does it take to purchase our property?

The time it takes to purchase a property can vary depending on factors like market conditions and the nature of your brief. We have an average purchase time of 32 days, although the process can take anywhere from a couple of weeks to several months. We work efficiently to find the right property for you without compromising on quality or due diligence.

I have already found a property, can you assist me in buying it?

Absolutely! If you’ve already identified a property, we can step in to help with our negotiation only service. Our goal is to ensure you secure the property at the best possible price and terms while avoiding potential pitfalls.

I want to develop, can you help?

Yes, we can assist you with property development. Our services include identifying suitable development sites, conducting feasibility studies, navigating planning regulations, and connecting you with architects, builders, and other professionals. We support you throughout the entire development process to maximise your investment.

Can you assist me in building my property portfolio?

Definitely. We specialise in helping investors build and manage a diversified property portfolio. We work with you to create a tailored strategy, identify high-growth opportunities, and manage the acquisition process to ensure your portfolio aligns with your long-term financial goals.

Can you help me sell our property?

While we don’t directly sell properties, we offer vendor advocacy services. We help you choose the right selling agent, manage the sales process, and ensure that you get the best possible outcome which comes at no cost to you.

What is the difference between a buyers agent and a real estate agent?

A real estate agent typically works for the seller and aims to get the highest price for the property. A buyers agent, on the other hand, works for the buyer, helping them find the right property at the best possible price. Our loyalty is to you, the buyer, ensuring your interests are represented throughout the transaction.

Can you help with interstate or regional property purchases?

Yes, we work with affiliate offices across Australia to help you find the perfect property, even if you’re buying outside of Sydney.
