Everyone in a purchase, and what they pay us.

A property purchase has a lot of people in it who are happy to pay for an introduction. This is the whole list.

Why we wrote this down

No house and land. No off the plan. No stock list.

We only buy established property, where the comparable sales exist before the offer does. With a package, the price is set by the person selling it and the land content is thin. Nobody pays us to place you into a project, and nobody should be paying your buyers agent except you.

What you have paid, and when

Straight answers

The questions to ask any buyers agent, answered for this one.

Do you have a list of properties to sell me?
No. There is no stock list. Every search starts from your numbers and the whole market, and the shortlist is written for you after you sign. We only buy established property, where comparable sales exist before the offer does.

What is the most I can lose if you never find anything?
$5,500. That is the retainer, and it pays for the portfolio session with Tom and the written research and shortlist, which are yours to keep. The $14,500 balance is only billed when a purchase goes unconditional. No property, no balance.

Why does it matter who else pays a buyers agent?
Because the advice follows the money. An agent paid by a developer to place buyers into a project is a salesperson for that project, whatever the business card says. Ask any agent three things before you sign: who else pays you, do you have a list of stock, and how much do I pay before a property is secured.

Do you earn more if I spend more?
No. The fee is $20,000 at every budget. It does not move with the purchase price.

How many clients do you take on at once?
Five, maximum. There are two of us, Dan and Tom, and the search is done by hand.
