A FORMULA FOR SUCCESS

Property Buyer’s Agent

Using a buyer’s advocate when acquiring property offers significant value and peace of mind throughout the entire process. At 1Group, our highly skilled buyer’s agents know the real estate industry inside and out and possess extensive knowledge of local trends, property values, and negotiation strategies. Our buyer’s agents are supported by our team of expert researchers who analyse property data such as zoning, demographics, migration, public transport and walk scores. 1Group’s combined expertise allows us to identify potential risks, evaluate property options, and guide buyers towards making informed decisions.

01  Strategy

Your property strategy is unique to your investment goals and the outcomes you are looking to achieve. We will map out the regions of interest and bring back suggestion based on your profile and the research team’s findings. We’ll also suggest suburbs and streets you may not have considered if they present as suitable possibilities.

02  Search

Our Buyer’s Agent team will call, canvass, and meet face to face with the target agents in the subject regions to source on, off and pre-market options for your consideration. We move quickly to inspect and complete both site and local area due diligence to ensure this property meets your requirements and is going to be inside budget.

03  Execution

Once you approve a property, negotiations begin. This is where a property buyer’s advocate has the most impact. Our expert buyer’s agents apply their decades of negotiating experience and in-depth training to navigate this intense and exciting stage, removing emotion and bringing the right balance of data, human behaviour analysis and experience to what is often our most appreciated and financially impactful stage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a buyer’s advocate?

Buyer’s advocates act as trusted advisors, working solely in the buyer’s best interest to secure the most favourable deal. They handle all aspects of property acquisition, from property searches and inspections to negotiations, contract reviews and settlement. With a 1Group buyer’s advocate on your team, you can save valuable time and energy, avoid costly mistakes, and gain a competitive edge in the market

What services does a buyer’s advocate provide?

The list of services provided by a 1Group buyer’s advocate is long. Our buyer’s agents work across residential, commercial and health sectors. As a 1Group client, we’ll help with your property search, identifying suitable properties based on your requirements, conducting thorough market research, and using our networks to find you the right property. We’re with you from search to settlement.

Our services include:

Property Evaluation - We’ll assess the value and potential of your target property against factors such as location, market trends, property condition, and comparable sales so you avoid overpaying for a property.

Negotiation – Our buyer’s advocates are skilled negotiators who represent your interests during price negotiations, getting you the best possible deal and managing all aspects of the negotiation process on your behalf.

Due Diligence – We conduct comprehensive due diligence on your target property, including inspections, title searches, and reviewing legal documents to ensure you’re aware of any potential issues or risks.

Bidding at Auctions – Our buyer’s advocates will attend the auction and bid on your behalf. We know all the tricks agents and auctioneers use and we are experts in auction strategies to give you the best chance of winning.

Access to Off-Market Properties – 1Group has an extensive client, vendor and agent network so our buyer’s advocates have access to off-market properties that are not publicly listed giving you exclusive access to properties not available to the general public.

How much does a buyer’s agent cost?

At 1Group, we provide certainty through a fixed fee, engagement model. No matter how long acquisition process takes, we are with you from search to settlement, offering a transparent and predictable cost structure. This approach allows our clients to plan and budget effectively. We do not work on percentage based commissions, nor do we receive kickbacks from vendors. We work for you only.

What should I look for when making my first property investment?

Making any investment decision can be a daunting task, especially when it’s as significant as property. A major consideration is budget – what are your financial capabilities in terms of deposit, stamp duty if applicable, ongoing repayments and other costs for legal fees, transfers, inspections and insurance? If you decide to lease the property, you also need to consider the associated expenses, income and tax implications.You will also need an investment strategy to determine whether to focus on long-term capital growth, rental income, or a combination of both. Once your strategy is set, location, property type and market behaviour are also important considerations to ensure the property delivers on your investment goals.

Can I afford a buyer’s advocate?

Buying property is one of life’s most significant investments so when it comes to making that decision, the real question is, can you afford not to engage a buyer’s advocate? It’s important to consider the potential benefits and value that a buyer’s advocate can provide in terms of saving time, minimising risks, and securing a better deal which may end up saving you much more than the engagement fee. Ultimately, the value of a buyer’s advocate lies in their ability to streamline the buying process, protect buyer’s interests, and ensure a successful property acquisition.

What’s the difference between a buyer’s advocate and a vendor’s advocate?

We provide advocacy for both buyers and sellers at 1Group. A buyer’s advocate assists property buyers in finding and purchasing a suitable property that aligns with their needs and preferences. A vendor’s advocate, on the other hand, represents the seller’s interests in a real estate transaction. Their primary role is to assist the seller in selling their property for the best possible price and terms.
