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.

Melbourne’s property market has kicked off 2025 with renewed strength, recording the fastest home price growth of any capital city. With consistent monthly gains and rising buyer confidence following the recent interest rate cut, this blog unpacks what the rebound means for buyers—and why acting strategically now could make all the difference.

Interest rates are down, and buyer confidence is back. But rushing into the market can cost more than it saves. At Walsh Brown Property, we help buyers create smart strategies, avoid emotional purchases, and buy with confidence—even in competitive conditions.

Not all price estimates are created equal. If one agent’s promise sounds too good to be true, it just might be. In this post, we unpack the common tactic of overquoting—why some agents use it, how it can derail your sale, and what to do instead to sell smart and stress-free.

AI can help filter your options, but it can’t walk through a property and spot poor workmanship, understand your emotional needs, or know when a selling agent is bluffing.

Investing in property can be a lucrative strategy, but choosing the right asset is crucial.

Not all off-market opportunities are equal; just because a property isn't listed publicly doesn't mean it's automatically a great deal.

Relying solely on reports provided by the seller can be a costly mistake, as they may not always reflect the property's true condition.
