Our Process
Buying property is complex and time consuming. Our proven process is built on transparency from day one, so you know exactly what to expect.
1. Identify Your Goals
We work with you to clarify your goals and develop a personalised strategy before commencing the property search on your behalf.
2. Property Search
We then leverage hundreds of real estate agent relationships (literally) to identify both on and off market properties that suit your criteria. We repeat this process weekly to guarantee that if there’s a property available for sale meeting your criteria, you’re the first to know about it.
3. Property Inspections
Once we’ve identified a property, we then inspect it on your behalf. Each property Inspection Report comes with 7-15 minutes of video, showcasing the good, the bad and the ugly. No more relying on glossy marketing, you can feel as though you’ve been through the property without ever stepping foot inside.
4. Property Assessment
If you’d like to proceed after our inspection, we then complete our 67-point due-diligence assessment report. This report uncovers any potential risks and highlights factors important to you, so you have complete confidence before we commence negotiations.
5. Price Due Diligence & Negotiation
The most critical aspect of your search is determining how much the property is worth, and whether there’s an opportunity to pay less than market value.
To solve this, we complete a data-based Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) report to develop a rational view on the property’s value. We then take a four pillar approach to developing a negotiation strategy that guarantees you’ll purchase the property for the best price possible.
6. Secure & Settle
Once our offer is accepted, we then project manage your property team until contracts have exchanged. This can involve scheduling Building & Pest Reports, liaising with your Conveyancer or Solicitor, and most importantly, communicating progress to the Real Estate Agent.
Come settlement day, we perform the pre-settlement inspection on your behalf and ensure that the keys find their way to your hands.
We might even celebrate the milestone with a drink on the veranda! We’ll leave that choice up to you.
