You make your money when you buy, so why wouldn't you bring a gun to a gun fight? We search, inspect, negotiate, bid at auction, and deal with property professionals every single day — we get pretty good at it. The average buyer just does not have the knowledge, experience, contacts, time, tools, or confidence to pull off the deals as quickly as a Buyer's Agent. If you are not an experienced property buyer and you find yourself in a race to secure that dream property up against a buyers agent, you will miss out on the property or overpay.

The difference between a buyer's agent and a selling agent is who they represent. A Buyer's Agent exclusively represents the Buyer and the Selling Agent exclusively represents the vendor (seller). A Buyer's Agent will search for your property and secure it for the absolute lowest price, and a seller's agent will sell the property and achieve the highest possible price. If you do not have a Buyer's Agent representing you, the seller will be in a better position to negotiate as they will have the only professional on their side of the deal.

Yes, we have great relationships that have been built up over the years with local real estate agents, combined with our reputation and longevity — properties are constantly brought to us prior to them being advertised. Also, sellers call to see if any clients are on the books that want to buy their property as they may not want to go through a real estate agent. We have a large team of agents where we pool all our off-market opportunities together, creating more opportunities than most.

In short, we operate in Sydney metropolitan areas as well as some coastal and regional areas in NSW. Our office is located in Bondi Junction so the bulk of our business happens in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney. We service the North Shore (upper and lower) and Northern Districts, Northern Beaches, Sydney CBD, Inner West, Southern Suburbs, Hills District, and West. We've also bought in the Central Coast, Blue Mountains, Hunter Valley, and Cronulla. We have a presence in Byron Bay and can refer you to other trusted Buyer's Agents through our affiliations for other states.

The first thing we need to establish is what the property is worth. We look at comparable sales in the same suburb and neighbourhood and do a full CMA report (Comparable Market Analysis report) — the same one that the selling agent would have prepared for the seller. Once you know what a property is worth you can move forward and negotiate with confidence. A good relationship with a selling agent can assist with inside knowledge and help with the negotiation by previewing properties before listing and understanding the real price the vendor wants.

Our fees vary depending on the service you require and the complexity of your brief. We offer a range of services from full service buying through to auction bidding and negotiation only. Contact us for a consultation and we'll provide you with a clear fee structure tailored to your needs. Our fees are an investment — our clients consistently find that the savings we achieve in purchase price more than cover our costs.

Absolutely not. Buyers agents work across all price points and budgets. Whether you're purchasing your first home, an investment property, or a prestige property, having professional representation ensures you get the best possible outcome. The cost of a buyers agent is often recouped many times over through better purchase prices, access to off-market properties, and avoiding costly mistakes.
