**Buyers Advocate Examples**

**Hampton Apartment Purchase**

Having assisted this family with multiple property purchases over the years, it was a privilege to once again help them secure the right property, this time for their mother.

Working with a limited budget, the client approached us with a property in mind but it was over their budget and required some detailed due diligence. The property was perfect with beautiful water views and we successfully secured it through private negotiations for under $600,000.

Just as importantly, we completed our full due diligence process, including reviewing the Owners Corporation, building information, and comparable sales, ensuring the family could move forward with confidence. The result was a fantastic bayside apartment, purchased at an attractive price and backed by thorough independent advice.

**Kew Apartment Purchase**

This was an excellent opportunity to secure a quality two-bedroom apartment in one of Kew’s most sought-after streets for under $600,000.

Positioned within a boutique block and featuring the highly desirable inclusion of a garage, the property offered an outstanding combination of lifestyle, convenience, and long-term capital growth potential. Opportunities of this calibre at this price point are becoming increasingly difficult to find in Kew.

By working collaboratively with the selling agent and completing our usual due diligence process, we were able to negotiate a great outcome for our client and secure the property at an attractive price. The result was a high-quality asset in a tightly held location that we believe will serve our client well for many years to come

**Brighton East Family Home Purchase**

We were delighted to assist a lovely young family returning from overseas who were determined to establish themselves in Brighton East and surrounds. Their goal was to secure a house rather than a townhouse or apartment, but with a limited budget and strong demand for family homes in the area, finding the right opportunity was not easy.

Ideally, they wanted a freestanding home on a manageable parcel of land that would provide both immediate lifestyle benefits and long-term growth potential. Opportunities that met this brief were scarce, and when the right property finally became available, competition was fierce.

Drawing on our local market knowledge, thorough due diligence, and strong relationship with the selling agent, we worked hard behind the scenes to position our clients as the preferred buyers. In the end, we were able to secure the keys to a fantastic family home in a highly sought-after location.

A great outcome for a deserving family and a reminder that relationships, strategy, and persistence can make all the difference.

**Kensington Home Purchase**

Having already assisted this client with the successful sale of her investment property, it was a pleasure to help her take the next step and secure a new home in Kensington.

From the outset, this property ticked all the boxes, offering the ideal combination of location, accommodation, and lifestyle. Rather than rushing the process, we took a patient and measured approach, carefully monitoring the campaign and gathering the information needed to negotiate from a position of strength.

By remaining disciplined and focused on value, we were able to secure the property at a price our client was comfortable with, giving her confidence that she had purchased the right home without paying more than necessary. A fantastic outcome and a rewarding result after helping her through both the sale and purchase journey.

**Prahran Investment Purchase**

This purchase was made on behalf of a client using their SMSF, with the objective of securing a high-quality investment property that offered strong rental returns, minimal ongoing expenditure, and excellent long-term growth prospects.

Located in one of Prahran’s most sought-after pockets, the apartment immediately stood out. Fully renovated and ready to lease, it eliminated the need for any additional capital expenditure while offering the type of accommodation that is consistently in demand from renters.

With four other bidders competing for the property on auction day, strong competition was expected. We took control of the auction early, implementing a clear bidding strategy designed to put our client in the strongest possible position and demonstrate confidence to the competition. By maintaining control throughout the auction, we were ultimately able to secure the property for our client.

The result was a fantastic investment purchased at an attractive price, delivering strong cash-flow potential, no immediate renovation costs, and a blue-chip Prahran location that should serve the SMSF well for many years to come.
