FAQs

What is a Buyers Agent? A licenced property professional who specialises in searching, evaluating and negotiating the purchase of property on behalf of buyers.

Buying property is one of the most significant financial decisions you can make, so there’s many reasons why having your own independent, industry insider ensures you make the best decisions.

A Buyers Agent helps you navigate the challenges of purchasing property, by providing expert advice on the process and thorough due diligence. We can provide a 250-point Property Specification Report, online Due Diligence Report, and Market Price (Apprasial) Report.

We’ll connect you to, or liaise with your existing mortgage broker, conveyancer, and building inspector.

Depending on your selected service with a Buyers Agent, they can complete the entire process on your behalf, or be co-pilot with you by investigating and negotiating properties that you find.

Of course! We separate our services into the four stages of buying:

  • Search
  • Investigate
  • Negotiate
  • Settlement

The Negotiate service includes either Private Treaty negotiations with the selling agent or vendor, or bidding for you at Auction.

Many buyers make the mistake of overpaying for property during negotiations, due to either:

  1. Not understanding a fair market price for the property
  2. Not effectively negotiating

Over-paying can easily cost tens of thousands of dollars, and it can happen in a moment. Sales agents are trained to extract the highest possible price from buyers. In fact, it’s their fiduciary duty to do so for their client.

We carefully and strategically build out a plan of how to acquire the property, considering dozens of different factors. Together, we’ll craft an offer that the seller can’t ignore. If we’re going to Auction for you, we’ll be prepared for all potential outcomes and always stop at a walk-away price we agree to prior to Auction.

Negotiate is included in the Complete Property Purchase. You can hire us just for the Negotiate service if you are a DIY buyer. It can also be added as an optional extra to the Purchase Consultant.

We’re here to support you where you need it most during your property purchase. We adapt our approach and timeline to suit your unique needs and circumstances.

Fundamentally, there's three approaches:

  1. We do everything for you (Complete Property Purchase)
  2. We advise you (Purchase Consultant)
  3. We help with particular tasks (Investigate and/or Negotiate)

There are four stages of buying:

  • Search
  • Investigate
  • Negotiate
  • Settlement

You can choose for us to handle all four stages, and we’ll execute the entire process. We provide premium support and guidance from initial planning and strategy, right through to personally handing you the keys on settlement day. This is called our Complete Property Purchase service.

If you'd prefer to have a co-pilot approach, select our Purchase Consultant service, and we'll be available via phone, text and email to support you during every phase. You complete the leg-work, but have the guidance, advice, contacts and knowledge of a professional Buyer's Agent the entire time.

Finally, you can hire us on a per-property basis to Investigate or Negotiate.

There are a few occasions in life where it's important to have the insights, support and guidance of a professional and unbiased advocate. Accountants and lawyers are experts in their field and assist people with critical tasks, where the risks and pitfalls involved in not using their services, outweigh the costs.

Buying property is one of the most expensive, risky and complex purchases most people make. It doesn’t matter if you’ve done it a few times, or not at all; every buyer benefits from an independent advisor with their best interests at heart.

A Buyers Agent reduces risk, complexity, stress and effort, whilst providing the information and clarity to make prudent decisions. Clients often look back at the transaction years later, thankful they made that investment to secure the right property, in a reasonable time frame and at the best possible price. With such a large investment and so many complex risks, just one mistake can easily cost more than professional advice. In this way, a Buyers Agent can "pay for themselves".

Unfortunately, there is a misconception that the services of a Buyers Agent are just ‘for the wealthy’ and not for the average Australian home buyer.

Our fees vary depending on the service you select.

The Complete Property Purchase fully inclusive service needs to be custom quoted to your individual needs. Please contact us for a quotation. It can range from $9,000 to $15,000.

Fees and a full description for our Investigate and Negotiate services can be found on the Services page. We offer affordable 'per-property' services for buyers who prefer to work collaboratively with us.

Investigate and Negotiate together are $1,900 for the first property, then $1,500 for each subsequent property.

The Negotiate service by itself is $1,200 for the first property, then $900 for each subsequent property.

We work with all residential property buyers. Whether you’re looking for your dream home, a first home, to downsize, or an investment property, we have the expertise to assist you.

As long as your search is within metro Adelaide, regardless of your budget, timeline or home preferences, we will tailor our support your individual circumstances.

A Buyers Agent brings value and expertise to all types of buyers.

A Buyer's Agent is generally able to access more properties than a standard buyer, due to existing relationships with Sales Agents and advanced search methods.

But it’s not only about access; it’s about the speed of access. Often, a deal can be done before the first scheduled open inspection, or the day after. 

Buyer's Agents are deeply embedded in the industry and have professional connections with Sales Agents who may offer them properties before being advertised. These types of properties are referred to by many names, including; silent listings, unadvertised, pre-market, pre-portal, exclusives.

Not only does a Buyer's Agent get first access to some properties, they also have systems and procedures to identify and take advantage of newly advertised listings quickly. They know how to submit compelling offers that the Sales Agent is likely to recommend their vendor accepts.

A good Buyer's Agent will find ideal properties much faster than a buyer doing casual research every few days on the real estate listing websites.

Too often, buyers don’t complete sufficient due diligence on a property and end up with buyers remorse. They might overpay, buy a home with issues, or discover the home is undesirable to live in once they move in.

Our Investigate service provides comprehensive and sophisticated reports that allow you to make a purchase decision with confidence and clarity. You’ll know what you’re paying and what you should offer for it.

We complete a 250-point Property Specification Report, a 40+ page Due Diligence Report, and a Market Price report. These reports evaluate a property far beyond the enquiries your average buyer will make.

The fee only changes during the service period if:

  • You upgrade your choice of service, or add optional extras,
  • Your requirements change during the Complete Property Purchase service, and a new quotation is required as per the terms of service

For example, you might start by hiring us as your 'Purchase Consultant', and then decide to add the optional 'Investigate' service for a specific property you're in the cooling off period for.

If you upgrade from the 'Purchase Consultant' service to the 'Complete Property Purchase' service, then you only pay the upgrade fee.

Payments made for 'Investigate' or 'Negotiate' individual services are one-off, and can't be applied to other services.

It is quite rare that a client who engages our services would terminate their property purchase search.

The agreement signed when a buyer engages our service, explains how the payment terms work, and what portion of payments are required in relation to an early exit. Fees payable depend on the service selected, and at what stage you wish to exit.

We can answer this question in more depth and related to your personal circumstances on a no-obligation discovery call.
