The property market is shifting fast. Once only 1 in 10 buyers used a buyer’s agent—now it’s 4 in 10, a 300% jump. Why? Buyer’s agents provide insider access to off-market deals, accurate valuations, skilled negotiation, and risk reduction. They save time, money, and stress while giving buyers a clear advantage. With competition fierce, going it alone can mean missing out or overpaying. Today, having a buyer’s agent isn’t a luxury—it’s essential.

Buying a property in Australia involves more than just the purchase price. Costs like stamp duty, bank fees, Lenders Mortgage Insurance, transfer fees, conveyancing, and inspections can add tens of thousands to your budget. For an $800,000 home in Victoria, extra costs may reach over $70,000. Planning ahead is key to avoiding financial surprises. Working with a buyer’s agent can also ease the process and help you make informed decisions.

Big mortgage companies are joining forces with experienced buyer’s agents to give homebuyers an unmatched advantage. From sourcing off-market properties to negotiating the best deal, discover how the buyer’s agent advantage can fast-track your dream home purchase.

Buying a home is one of life’s biggest milestones—but also one of the easiest times to overlook critical details. From hidden renovation issues to faulty heating, plumbing or security concerns, a picture-perfect home can hide costly problems. This checklist covers 11 key things to inspect before you buy, helping you avoid surprises and make a confident decision. Because in property, what you don’t check can cost you — especially in the Australian market.

Buying sight unseen without someone physically inspecting the property on your behalf is, quite literally, buying blind. Photos and agent videos often hide structural issues, poor renovations, and costly problems. As a buyer’s agent, I inspect every property, ask the tough questions, and act solely in your best interest — so you can make confident, informed decisions, no matter where you're buying in Australia.

What does a buyer’s agent really do? It’s not just daytime inspections—it’s 10pm negotiations, contract reviews after hours, and being ready to act when it matters most. Like last night, when I secured a dream Yarraville home for my interstate clients—all while they were still in Queensland. Because when you're buying from afar (or just busy), having someone in your corner makes all the difference.
