I cover all of Sydney: Eastern Suburbs, Upper and Lower North Shore, Northern Beaches, Inner West, St George, Sutherland Shire, Canterbury / Bankstown area, West (Parramatta area), North West (Hills Shire), South West (Campbelltown area), Penrith etc.

I don’t think so, and feedback from clients is that my fees are very reasonable and fair. I'm confident you'll find my fee cost-effective and affordable; most clients actually SAVE money on their property purchase which more than covers the cost of my service.  Importantly, my fee doesn’t increase along with your property's purchase price and my innovative and ethical pricing structure gives you choice and control.

I provide the best value buyer's agent service in Sydney and offer innovative pricing structures. Working with tenants every day to secure rental homes, I know what tenants need in their homes. For my investor clients, I know precisely what will make a great investment property and I’ll have great ideas that you might like to incorporate into your investment property to make it more appealing to tenants. This ensures that your investment property is leased quickly to a great tenant who will value the home - and this means more money in your pocket, sooner.

Whilst we’d love to assist in this way, it's important to note that providing advice, even informally, requires us to comply with our regulatory obligations.

We strive to maintain the highest standards and once engaged, we gather detailed information about your property needs, current situation and all other relevant information to ensure that any guidance we provide aligns with your best interests.

Unfortunately, brief or informal advice doesn’t allow sufficient time or information-gathering to meet these requirements or provide the comprehensive advice you deserve.

When you enquire, we obtain all of the information that we need to know if we can help you, and having determined that we can help you, we will offer service options that align with your needs. We do not charge for this initial information-gathering and assessment as we need to understand how we can help you.

With the service engaged (via our small, one-off engagement fee), you’ll experience just how thorough we are in gathering comprehensive information that positions us to provide the sound advice that you seek.

Absolutely.  It is increasingly common for properties to sell off-market and pre-market to buyer's agents.  Also, sales agents are more inclined to work with me because they know that my clients are all qualified (that is, pre-approved, deposit ready) and this makes their work easier.

The first step is to complete an online enquiry.  I'll be in touch to seek some additional information, following which I’ll be pleased to provide you with a service offering and a quote.  You become a client by signing an agency agreement and paying the relevant fee. We’re then ready to get started on our journey.

If you’d like to find your home and have me guide you through the purchase, I offer services that are perfect for this (the Evaluate and Negotiate Service; Property Coach Service). If you choose the Full Service then you can sit back and relax as I’ll take on the search for you including all online, off-market and pre-market searches.

Yes. You will need to engage (at your expense) other professionals such as conveyancers and property / strata inspectors. We will work with your chosen service providers and are also delighted to refer you to our own panel of experts. We coordinate all of the work of the consultants as needed.

Yes, I am 100% independent.  This means that I:

• Don’t receive commissions from a third party; I am paid entirely by my clients

• Do not offer vendor advocacy, or any other services for sellers

• Do not sell real estate or off-the-plan developments, new builds, house-and-land packages etc. I work with clients who are buying established properties in safe areas.

• Do not have affiliations with builders or developers

• I eliminate non-ideal properties and only present those homes that are the closest possible match for your brief so that you can focus your time and emotions on the properties that will work best for you

• I will liaise with selling agents so that you don’t waste your time hearing about and inspecting homes that are ultimately not suited to your needs. You also won’t need to take endless time out of your day dealing with call-backs and feedback calls on homes you’re not keen on.

• You will avoid chasing under-quoted properties so that we can focus on properties that are likely to sell within your budget

• My clients purchase many months sooner than they would if they were working alone, saving valuable time, but importantly, saving money in a rising market. The average home-purchaser going it alone takes 2-3 years to purchase. To date, my clients have purchased within 3 months.

• I offer specific advice and guidance during and after your property purchase

Along with the time (and possibly money) saved, the advantage of having us search for you is our access to detailed property intel. Perhaps tenants never stay in that home longer than 2 months. Perhaps the home has been on the market for 6 months. Does that garage really fit a modern car? We evaluate hundreds of homes each week and are experts at identifying the best homes and eliminating those that will be an endless source of misery. While your online search is limited, our intel completed the picture allowing us to focus on the right homes, saving you time and ensuring you find the best match.

Rest assured that when you engage our service, we will not take on another client with a similar brief to yours, ie, with a similar budget, property type and location.

I have a certain type of client who I love working with, and who loves working with me, too.  Clients who are a perfect fit for me are:

• Investors who are looking for an established property to buy. I don't assist with off-the-plan purchases or land purchases but can refer you to other buyer’s agents can may assist you.

• Investors who want to purchase according to safe and strategic plans using tried and true data (low risk).

• People who are open to advice and guidance.

• People who are looking forward to working collaboratively and cooperatively with me and are responsive throughout.

• For the Full Service: you need to be willing to hand over your property search to me as I’ll identify the best possible homes for your brief (this is my specialty).

• For the Evaluate and Negotiate Service: you need to be willing to search and identify the home you wish to buy as this service doesn’t cover property searches. It is a service where you identify the property you’d like to call home and I’ll assist with securing it.

I am selective about who I work with because I want you to be absolutely happy with my service.  If I’m not confident that I can help you or I believe we would not be a good fit to work together, I will suggest that we don’t proceed and I’ll refer you to another professional who may be able to assist you.
