We had a great experience with Cohen Handler Buyers Agents Sydney.Wayne was incredibly supportive and made the whole process so much easier.Thanks to his help, we were able to save both time and money.He was very reliable and reassuring throughout.Highly recommended!
We recently engaged Cohen Handler (Marcus) to assist with the purchase of a property and was thoroughly impressed with Marcus and Doron's professionalism and expertise. From the outset, they focused only on properties that met our requirements and stayed within our budget. Their market insight and network allowed them to source an off-market property perfectly located in our preferred area. The team did an exceptional job managing and executing the off-market transaction efficiently and seamlessly. I would highly recommend Marcus / Cohen handler to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and results-driven buyers agency. Extremely helpful throughout the whole process.
Simon and Bel are a godsend. Prior to engaging Cohen Handler’s services, we had been searching for a property in Sydney’s east for more than six months without success. We were unsure about the benefit cost ratio of contracting a buyer’s agent, and falsely believed the concept to be more a luxury than a necessity. We were happy to be proven very wrong.From the first meeting Simon and Bel were proactive, warm, and highly accessible. Responses were swift if not immediate, no matter the hour (or the timezone). In the weeks that followed, many suitable off and pre market properties were efficiently sourced and inspected, and for each property Bel would serve us nuanced, unbiased intel on a silver platter, saving us time and bandwidth, and indeed saving our sanity.When the time came to make offers, Simon was a consistent voice of reason and wisdom, curbing our temptations to overpay. He shielded us during the brutal negotiation process, but also involved us at every turn and pivot, ultimately empowering us and giving us complete ownership of all decisions. We secured the perfect property for our needs well within budget. We could not have done it with such ease and momentum without Simon and Bel.Never in our combined property purchasing history have we experienced this kind of advocacy, support, and safety. Call them, it’s a no brainer.
Couldn’t be happier with the service we received from Simon and Isabella at Cohen Handler in finding our new family home. From the very first meeting, Simon and Bel were professional, attentive and unbelievably responsive in communicating with us and filtering out properties that would be suitable for our next chapter. They listened carefully to our needs, guided us through the process with clarity and patience, and went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of.Their local knowledge, negotiation skills and responsiveness made what could have been a stressful experience, feel smooth and exciting.This included getting access to properties before they hit the market, allowing a leg-up on the competition.We always felt like a priority and their support gave us confidence every step of the way.Highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-tier buyers agent.
We had the absolute pleasure of working with Julie Kim from Cohen Handler to buy our first home in the Northern Beaches. From the very beginning, Julie’s expertise and guidance gave us so much confidence throughout the process. Her knowledge of the area is second to none, and she took the time to really understand our vision for what we wanted in a first home.Julie made the entire journey smooth and stress-free. What we thought might take us a long time of endless weekend inspections turned into a seamless experience where we were able to purchase our home within under three months. We honestly couldn’t have done it without her.If you’re looking for someone who is professional, approachable, and genuinely invested in helping you find the right home, we couldn’t recommend Julie highly enough.

Client Experience
Ben and his team were simply outstanding in helping us find a property in Sydney, he was professional, calm and available throughout the process. I would not hesitate to recommend Ben to anyone looking to secure a property, thanks so much Ben .
Ben and Damian were great to work with from start to finish. They found multiple properties for me within a matter of weeks.Easy to deal with and took all effort out of the process.Thanks gents first of many purchases together I’m sure
Wonderful experience with Lisa. Professional, great communication and works hard for her clients. Highly recommend!
Ive been investing in property for 25 years so went back and forwards about using a BA for the first time to secure our next investment as I knew I could do it myself. But the market has changed and after a few months of looking and not purchasing I knew I wanted help and support. Enter Ben who made me feel confident that using a BA would help achieve our long term goals. I worked with the amazing Lisa to secure a great property in a short time, she's friendly and supportive and if my constant questions and worries (its hard to let go of control!) bugged her she didn't let on!! She's responsive to messages and reassured me that there was no pressure to purchase until i was 100% happy. She negotiated well on a property prior to it going on the open market and we were able to secure it for what I feel is a good price in a competitive market. Time will tell how it performs but Im really happy with the asset and would like to thank the team at BFP property.
The experience was exceptional, and the transition into our dream home was seamless. Ben demonstrated extensive experience and profound knowledge of the Kellyville property market, and I highly recommend his services.
Damian and Ben have been amazing in helping us secure our first regional investment property. Their approach gave us the confidence to explore regional properties without having the need to visit the place. The end to end process managed by the team has taken lots of the heavy lifting from our end and allow us to just focus on our day jobs without having to manage every stakeholder in the process.
We recently worked with Lisa from BFP Property as our buyers agent, and her exceptional service made our home-buying experience truly outstanding. After a less-than-ideal experience with a previous agent, we switched to Ben and Lisa, who quickly proved to be the perfect fit.From our initial conversation, Lisa listened carefully to our needs, preferences, and concerns. She clearly understood what we wanted and ensured our past issues were never a problem. Her communication was impeccable—always prompt, clear, and tailored to us. Lisa responded quickly to our questions, providing expert guidance that made the entire process smooth and straightforward.Her dedication to finding the right property was remarkable. Lisa tirelessly sourced options, even in a competitive market. Her professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine care made the journey enjoyable and stress-free.We wholeheartedly recommend Lisa, Ben and the BFP Property team to anyone seeking a buyers agent who truly listens and delivers. Thank you, Lisa, for helping us find our perfect home!
Lisa Wood is excellent to work with, very knowledgable, prompt, easy to talk to and really great at what she does! Thanks for all your help Lisa.
We had a great experience working with Ben’s team at BFP. We bought an investment property and were very nervous about how the whole process, but it all went so smoothly and were in constant contact with Lisa who guided us throughout the process with ease. We are very happy with our purchase which we purchased off market. Thank you BFP👍🏻
I just settled on a property interstate and it was a commendable experience. It was my first time using a buyers agent and so wasn't sure of the outcomes to expect. After many questions /time to understand the process, locations and details involved, I was reassured and able to hone in on the area that was ultimately of most interest and promising. The best part was the strong support from Ben & Damien who worked in tandem to lead the journey and ensuring all details were covered including inspections and liaising with various parties to make it less stressful. Communication was generally prompt and reliable, so I could ease knowing it's in good hands. Ben's accounting background was beneficial at the early stages to use as a bouncing board such as on cashflows. Although only time will tell how strong the growth is on the property, it seems like a good buy and the process was pleasant.
I'm absolutely thrilled with the service provided by Ben and Lisa! As buyers' agents, they helped me find an excellent investment-grade property that perfectly met my requirements. Their expertise, knowledge of the market, and dedication to their clients are truly impressive. They kept me informed throughout the entire process, and their negotiation skills ensured I got a great deal. I highly recommend Ben and Lisa to anyone looking for professional and reliable buyers' agents. Thanks for your hard work guys!!
We had an outstanding experience working with Ben and Lisa from BFP Property Group. From the moment we connected, it was clear we had found the right buyer’s agent, professional, personable, and completely aligned with our mindset. Ben’s financial expertise and strategic perspective helped us identify the right investment property type to begin our journey, while Lisa’s strong local knowledge ensured a smooth and stress-free process throughout. From the initial introduction to shortlisting, bidding, buying, settlement, and even onboarding with property management and tenancy, every step was handled with care and professionalism. Not once did we feel rushed or misinformed. It has truly been a seamless, hands-free experience, and we hope this is just the start of a long-term relationship. Thank you, Ben and Lisa!
We’re incredibly grateful to Ben and his team—especially Lisa—for helping us secure our first investment property. Their professionalism, deep market knowledge, and genuine care made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. This is the second time we’ve had the pleasure of working with Ben, having first engaged him a few years ago to purchase our family home. Once again, the team exceeded our expectations with their dedication, responsiveness, and strategic guidance. We felt supported every step of the way and are thrilled with the outcome. Thank you for being such trusted partners in our property journey!
We had an exceptional experience with Ben and Damien while purchasing our first investment property interstate. From start to finish, they were incredibly responsive and helpful, always available to answer our questions and provide guidance. Their insights and useful information made the entire process seamless and stress-free. Highly recommend!
Not sure what their buying agent services are like but did have a brief chat with Ben initially and may not have been his intention felt like a little bit of an interrogation. I was a bit sceptical about the service model to start with so that probably didn't help. I decided to buy a property without a buyers agent simply because I wanted the 'thrill' of the actual process than having someone else do it for me, plus I didn't want too many points of sharing sensitive personal information. The reason for this review is I like the newsletters they send out, they are interesting. Who knows one day I might use their services.
We used BFP to find an IP for our SMSF.I highly recommend BFP; they are highly trustworthy and professional all the way through the process. They the hard-work and headache out of finding a property as well as navigating through the entire purchase process.
We recently had dealings with Lisa Wood from BFP Property Group and can safely say she was one of the best buyers' agents we have had the pleasure in dealing with. We always felt that she was honest & transparent throughout the whole process. We would have no hesitation in recommending her on to clients & hopefully doing further business. Regards Barker RE.
My partner and I were looking to start our property portfolio after months of research through podcasts and books. Understanding how crucial the first purchase would be, we decided to engage a buyers agent. We had discovery calls with several agencies but struggled to build trust until we met Ben and Lisa at BFP. From our first call, we knew they were the best option for us and felt we could trust them completely with such an important decision in our lives.Throughout the process, Lisa and Ben kept us continuously updated and answered every question we asked. This was particularly important to us as we wanted to learn from BFP's experience and be educated throughout the journey. They were very strategic and thoughtful in selecting regions based on our specific circumstances.We especially appreciated their patience in not settling for just any property, but waiting for the perfect one for our situation. BFP made everything smooth and easy, showing genuine care for our situation and future goals. We couldn't recommend them more highly and would absolutely work with them again. Thank you, Lisa and Ben, for finding us the perfect property.
Working with Lisa from BFP Property Group as we were the listing agents for a property purchase in Mount Gambier was an excellent experience. Lisa stood out for her clear and consistent communication, her approachable nature, and her unwavering focus on achieving a successful result for everyone involved. She demonstrated remarkable care and attention to detail throughout the process, ensuring her client’s needs were fully supported. It was a pleasure to collaborate with someone so dedicated and capable, and we look forward to partnering with Lisa again.
Lisa from BFP Property Group was a dream to work with. While advocating for her clients throughout the sales process she always maintained great communication and proactive organisation to keep everything on track. Thanks Lisa, I look forward to working with you again 🙂
Ben and Patrice helped us to find the perfect property within a short space of time and provided guidance re pricing and approach. Great team to work with and gave us a sense of confidence in terms of navigating the Sydney market. No hesitation in recommending them and if we are looking for another property they will be the first people we go to.
Thanks to Ben and the team. Easy to deal with. Fast and efficient service.
Ben and his team provided a seamless and enjoyable home-buying experience. They handled every detail of our home purchase with such care, making what could have been a stressful process feel simple and effortless. Their service saved me so much personal time and energy. Highly recommend this outstanding team!
We had a fantastic experience with Ben and Lisa from BFP Property Group. Ben’s knowledge and professionalism helped us select the best location within our budget, and Lisa went above and beyond, patiently searching for properties until we found the right one. She negotiated effectively to get us the best price, arranged a reliable property manager, and supported us through the entire process until our property was rented out. Highly recommend their services for anyone looking for a smooth, guided experience in buying property!
Lisa from BFP Property Group, has been nothing short of amazing. Constant communication & ongoing support, no one else I’d rather do business with. Very grateful to be working with such a knowledgeable & kind person. Lisa is the person you need - the best buyers agent service you’ll ever get!!!
Ben and Patrice were steady hands in the challenging Sydney market. Their extensive knowledge and experience were evident as they guided and educated us through the complex process of narrowing down our property selection, organizing our resources, and especially during the offer negotiation phase. This was exactly the help we needed. Even after our successful offer and receiving our payment, Patrice continued to kindly and meticulously answer all our questions, deal with the agent, and guide us through the final inspection and settlement. Absolutely exemplary.
Patrice and Ben were instrumental in facilitating our first home buying experience. They guided us through an otherwise daunting market and had the patience to bear with us through our high standards and very selective process.When we found the right home they quickly assembled a team to inspect and sift through every document before putting an offer on a fast moving off market property. We were very fortunate to have them in our corner.
We can't thank Ben, Lisa and their entire team enough for their incredible support in helping us buy our first investment property in such a short period of time. Their proactive approach and dedication made the entire process seamless. From finding the right property to closing the deal, they were involved every step of the way, ensuring everything was handled promptly and professionally. Their expertise and commitment truly set them apart. Highly recommend!
Great service! Exceptional at leading us through the process and as stress free as can be. Lisa and Ben went above and beyond the average service! Hoping the property value can rise that way too 🤞

I look forward to working with Ben and BFP to manage the property and hopefully many more in the future!

Client Experience
One Buyers Agency is by far the best buyers agency is Sydney’s East. I met with many and no one came close to Carli, Michael and the team. They were active, diligent and supportive throughout the entire process making you feel like a member of the family. Look no further than One Buyers Agency when looking to buy!
After successfully settling on our property, I wanted to leave a review to acknowledge the ongoing support from The One Buyers Agency. The team didn’t just stop once the purchase was secured — they continued to stay in touch throughout the process and well after settlement. Their follow-up, including introducing us to trusted contacts of builders and consultants for DA plans, showed a genuine care for maintaining a high level of service. Thank you to Jayden, Carli, Marcel, Michael and the team.
We used Carli to help buy two investment units. The catch…the units weren’t even on the market. She tracked down the owners, helped us negotiate the price and got a very complex deal done in under two weeks.Her communication including Michael was first class. I would not use anyone else.
PROFESSIONAL, DEDICATED AND KNOWLEDGABLE! That is how I would describe One Buyer’s Agency - I loved my experience with Carli, George and Michael. They were honest, organised, realistic and above all really great to work with. They made the whole buying experience a breeze. You won’t regret it!
I highly recommend Janette Chan. She’s so quick and precise to know what you are looking for when you are buying a property. Janette knows properties that will add values and has deep knowledge in the property market. Thank you Janette!
Jono is a wizard! I had seen Jonathan's content on social media for years now, and having finally entered the buyer's market recently, I went straight to Jono for advice. We used Jonathan for market insights, suburb feedback and most importantly, negotiation support.We secured our dream apartment 2 weeks later, having actually walked away from another prior (rightfully so) upon the insights (from Jono) showing how over-priced it was.Would highly recommend Jonathan to anyone looking to secure their dream home and remove all the struggles of the search!
Will was an absolute game-changer as my buyer’s agent. Without him, I wouldn’t have found the perfect home for me and my daughters, and he made the buying journey effortless. He was endlessly patient, incredibly resourceful, and kept me informed at every step, most importantly, his negotiation skills were outstanding. I couldn’t be happier and recommend him wholeheartedly.
Clare and Will are the best in the biz. Professional, smart, proactive and operating with integrity at every turn. Had so much fun too!
My husband and I are so impressed with the excellence and professionalism of Clare and Will, agents with One Byers Agency. Their constant availability, excellent knowledge of the market and sharp negotiating skills were the leading force in buying our dream home. We highly recommend the agency and are already using them in another venture.
Carly, Martine, Amy and Michael - what a dream team! We can’t thank you enough for your dedication and hard work in helping us find the perfect land to build our new home.

I was reluctantly persuaded by a family member to have One Buyers Agency help us find a residential property. Having purchased multiple properties over many decades I was doubtful I would benefit by using a Buyers Agent. Further ,the idea the fee would be more than recovered through superior negotiating skills was viewed with skepticism. I was wrong on both counts. While buying an ideal property at a price well below what I would have had the nerve to offer was wonderful, even more valuable was being restrained from buying a property which we would have regretted. Michael and Carli genuinely and patiently wanted us to buy the "best property for us". Their ability to drill down with due diligence, was well beyond what we were capable of doing. I cannot speak highly enough of the approach to their work both personally and professionally by Carli and Michael. I would strongly endorse them for your property searchPaul and Marie McGoldrick
It was a pleasure working with Martin Harvey and George Goldsworthy on the recent Paddington terrace sale.It was a smooth, collaborative process that resulted in a great outcome for both the vendor and the buyer. Their professionalism and client-first attitude made all the difference.
Working with Will Andrews on a recent transaction in Paddington was an absolute pleasure.Will was a clear and consistent communicator throughout the process, which made collaboration seamless. He approached the deal with a genuine commitment to achieving a positive outcome for both parties, and his teamwork-oriented mindset played a key role in making that happen.It’s always refreshing to work with an agent who values professionalism and mutual respect—looking forward to working together again.
I had a great experience working with Janette Chan as my buyer's agent. Not only did she recommend the best properties in the east, she also understood when was the best time to close the deal. The after sales service was amazing, she took the time to provide valuable feedback on how I could add value to the property. She was very honest and transparent throughout the process.
Outstanding service. Carli and her team were responsive, professional and also caring. They removed the stress associated with the buying process. Highly recommend.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Michael and Carli on a property sale, and their dedication to their clients was outstanding. They were highly professional, proactive, and an absolute pleasure to deal with. Their attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile—even handling negotiations late into the night—made the entire process seamless. Their expertise and commitment truly set them apart, and I look forward to working with them again in the future.
Working with Michael and Carli as buyers' agents was an absolute pleasure. Their professionalism, clear communication, and commitment to their clients were evident throughout the entire transaction. They went above and beyond to ensure a seamless process, even working late into the night to finalise details and secure the best outcome. Their dedication and expertise made this a smooth and successful experience for everyone involved. I look forward to working with them again in the future!
Jayden, Will and the team at One Buyers Agency are always a pleasure to deal with. They’re diligent and pragmatic with their approach to buying property in the East. They’ve been operating in the area long enough to have in depth market knowledge across all the suburbs they service. 10/10
Will Andrews from One Buyers Agency was phenomenal. Extremely knowledgable and helpful, an absolute pleasure to work with and (most importantly), an excellent buyers agent who pushed hard to get us the result we wanted. I strongly recommend him to anyone who is searching for their perfect home!
We couldn't recommend One Buyers Agency enough. Carli, Jayden and the team have been so great to work with over the past 3 months. They made the buying process so easy. We have found our dream home and could not be happier.
Having Jayden and the team at One Buyers Agency helped me navigate the purchase process was invaluable.An empathic approach, deep understanding of the market and robust advocacy helped me secure the ideal property at a price I would have not been able to acheive on my own.Thanks guys!
One Buyers Agency are the most consummate professionals!! Will, Carli and Michael were an absolute pleasure to deal with every step of the way. Their knowledge, availability, care, generosity and skilled bidding saved us a fortune. They stuck to our brief, we dealt with Will for the most part and he just got us and what we wanted. They never pressured us in any way. I highly recommend them as buyers agents!! They really are next level professionals!! Outstanding in every way!!
I was sceptical of using a buyers agent to be honest. Why waist the money ?I must say that One Buyer’s Agency changed my mind about this completely. They were very professional, with a deep knowledge of the market. Never pushy. Price is what you pay but value is what you get: I would highly recommend them and if I were to do it over, I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again
Jayden was an absolute pleasure to work with. Jayden goes above and beyond for his clients and will do what it takes to try and get the deal done and always with a smile on his face! Look forward to working with him again.
Couldn’t recommend more highly!! My partner and I decided to engage Jayden and Carli to find our first home and we wouldn’t have been able to do it without them. They ran the whole process from start to finish, presented us so many off market homes and negotiated a price we would never have been able to achieve ourselves. Thank you for finding our forever home and thank you for making the whole experience seamless and fun!
After 2 years of tirelessly looking for a family home and with much disappointment throughout this search, we engaged Michael and Carli with our specific brief. We are so happy to say that within a week of signing up with One Buyers agent we purchased our dream home! We would have never had access to this opportunity had it not been for Michael’s tireless work, and through the connections at One Buyers Agent we were able to purchase it off market. Michael and Carli went above and beyond throughout the process, and were on call at every stage. Michael and Carli were so pleasant and accommodating to deal with throughout this big life event. Our only regret was not signing Michael and Carli on earlier!
Jayden & Marcel were exceptional! After meeting with several buyers' agents, I immediately recognised they had the competency, professionalism, and experience I was after to help me find my dream home.In just a few weeks of signing, they swiftly arranged viewings for all my preferred properties and thanks to their patience, care, and negotiation skills they were able to secure my dream home just under 2 weeks later. Not only did they help me find the perfect property but also at a much lower price than expected. I couldn't recommend them more highly!
Clare & Jayden helped us to purchase our first house. They presented over 100 properties on/ off market and attended probably 30+ opens with us. They did a great job working to get us an off market place within a week of seeing it (unfortunately owner pulled last min) but continued to help us find an even better property and negotiated to buy it before auction, at a great price and within a week of seeing it too!
Prior to signing with One Buyers we were of the view that buyers agents were more for people who didn’t have time to search. My partner was sceptical of the added value a buying agency could provide since we had time to search ourselves.However, following our initial meeting with George and Will any doubts were quickly assuaged. After a comprehensive consultation we felt confident they had a strong understanding of what we were looking for and were convinced of their expert knowledge of the local market in terms of both properties and agencies. Commencing the search in a slow market, online options were limited resulting in George and Will instantly proving their value by showing us properties that were predominantly listed off market.We have now purchased our dream, family home. Not only were George and Will professional and supportive during the whole process, their expertise, guidance and dedication exceeded our expectations in every way. Their in-depth knowledge of the market and negotiation skills were truly impressive. They secured our new home at a price we are very happy with and were instrumental and invaluable in the negotiation and exchange process. They work exceptionally well together and made the whole process enjoyable. We cannot recommend George and Will more highly.
Prior to enlisting the services of One Buyers Agency, our quest for a home spanned over six months. Each weekend was consumed by visits to properties that consistently fetched prices far beyond their initial quotes, leaving us disheartened and time-worn. However, upon meeting Jayden and Carli, our perspective shifted. Their expertise became evident from the onset, instilling confidence in us. Remarkably, within a mere four weeks of partnering with them, they unveiled our dream home, tucked away from the public market, granting us exclusive access. Their adept negotiation skills secured a price that surpassed our expectations. It is their wealth of experience, meticulous attention to detail, and robust industry connections that truly distinguish them. For anyone in search of a buyers agent, One Buyers Agency stands unparalleled in recommendation.
Jayden and Clare did a great job helping us find a property. After searching for months ourselves One Buyer's agency's proactive and supportive approach meant we found a home within a week!Jayden and Clare's were very supportive and made the process so smooth for us, they helped us navigate the sale from start to finish without any hiccups and looked after us extremely well. Would highly recommend.
Working with Jayden & Mary was seamless. Extremely prompt in responding to my off-market listing, they secured an amazing property for their client within 1 week. Great teamwork!
My family and I had a wonderful experience with Mary and Jayden with finding the perfect property! Could not recommend their services highly enough!! Thanks team!
Mary & Jayden were such a pleasure to deal with. We were able to secure a property off market and all the heavy lifting was taken care of. I would highly recommend One Buyers Agency to all of my friends and family and will use them again on future transactions.
Jayden and the team are super helpful and always available to help a client!Navigating the property market is never easy, so it has been great having them to assist us!
I recently sold a property where Jaden & Georgie were the Buyers Agents on the property representing their client. They were very professional to deal with and were straightforward with their negotiations. Thank you for your efforts and transparency.
William's extensive network of contacts played a vital role in securing our dream home in Woollahra, even before it hit the market. His exceptional skills in navigating the competitive real estate landscape and negotiating a favorable price ensured that the entire process, typically stressful in such a market, was seamlessly managed with his dedicated service. We are grateful for his expertise and highly recommend William for anyone seeking a top-tier buyers' agent. His expertise, professionalism, and attention to detail truly set him apart. He navigated the process seamlessly, ensuring our needs were met every step of the way. If you're in search of a dedicated and knowledgeable buyers' agent, William comes highly recommended. Five stars without a doubt!
As a couple running multiple small businesses, time is a commodity we simply cannot afford to waste. Our latest venture, a novel concept focusing on date night accommodation, required expansion, but finding the perfect location was proving to be a monumental task. Our requirements were specific: the style, structure, and location had to be just right, not to mention financially sensible. After a year of searching on our own, with property prices steadily climbing, we now realize the immense value a buyer’s agency could have added from the start.We partnered with One Buyers Agency—our real estate game changer. From the moment we partnered with them, it was clear they were in a league of their own. They grasped our unique needs with an impressive depth of understanding and took on all the “heavy lifting” that we simply didn’t have the time for. Their expertise in identifying solid investments was evident in their approach; they meticulously reviewed documentation, liaised with all parties involved, arranged inspections, and handled the crucial negotiations with finesse.The difference was night and day. What was once an arduous and time-consuming process became streamlined and efficient, thanks to One Buyers Agency. Remarkably, within just three months—and over the hectic December holiday period, no less—we became the proud owners of a new property for our next flagship date night destination.A heartfelt thank you to Carli and Michael at One Buyers Agency, who went above and beyond in every aspect. Their dedication, expertise, and genuine care transformed our experience and directly contributed to our success. For anyone contemplating the leap into real estate, whether for business or personal purposes, we cannot recommend One Buyers Agency highly enough. They’re not just agents; they’re your partners in making dreams a reality.Thank you so much guys! Zsanett and Shai
Mary and Jayden provided exceptional service, answering all our questions and tailoring their approach to meet our individual needs. Their commitment to understanding our preferences made the apartment-buying process smooth and reassuring.With proactive communication, and great knowledge of the suburb we were buying in they guided us with professionalism and care. We never felt rushed or pressured, and they kept were particularly supportive during the negotiating stage.We wholeheartedly recommend our buyers agent to family and friends. In a competitive market, their trustworthiness and expertise set them apart, and we're grateful for their role in helping us find our dream apartment.
House hunting with Will, Jayden, and Mary at One Buyers Agency has been an enjoyable journey, they make the overall search of property acquisition process very comfortable. Their guidance and support proved to be invaluable, offering me excellent advice. During a fiercely competitive market, their assistance played a pivotal role, and I'm convinced I would still be searching without their help. I commend their proactive and professional approach in identifying a property that precisely aligned with my needs. I heartily recommend them, and I intend to engage their services again in the future.
Clare and Will and One Buyers Agency has been an absolute pleasure to work with making the buying process so much more enjoyable. They gave me great advice and support. I think if I didn’t have their help I would be still looking in such a competitive market. I am very grateful for their proactive, professional approach finding me the right property that suited my brief. I would definitely recommend them and I will be using them again in the future.

Client Experience
Annika was amazing to work with, very helpful, very knowledgeable, can’t believe we have found a place in Sydney. Would highly recommend working with her to help you find your dream home.
Will was instrumental in buying my first property. He’s knowledge, guidance and care was beyond incredible. Will cares about your goals and provides recommendations to ensure your investment will be a success. I can’t recommend Will and the team enough and will be definitely going back as he made the whole process so easy and comfortable.
Huge thanks to Mike and the team at PMC for helping us buy our new family home. We couldn’t have secured it without their help. Mike organised a private inspection on a property that was moving quickly and negotiated the sale within a few days of it coming to market. He never pressured us to buy something that wasn’t right for us, and steered us clear of several problematic properties. He was professional, dedicated, ethical and a skilled negotiator, helping us right down to the pre-settlement inspection. Thank you Mike, Brooke, Lili, Milly and the rest of the team.
We cannot recommend Will and his team highly enough! Will’s knowledge of the property market, his expertise, and his genuine interest in our investment were next level. We never thought cracking the Sydney market would be possible, but Will made it happen—and made the whole process feel comfortable and achievable.
Annika Wood is an absolute gem! Navigating the Lane Cove market, especially with such low stock, felt incredibly daunting, but Annika made the entire process so much smoother and genuinely enjoyable. We're so grateful for her approach – she truly took the time to understand not just our needs, but our wider family's as well, which made all the difference.She went above and beyond for us in countless ways. She was always there to debrief after we missed out on places, helping us refine our "must-haves" and keeping our spirits up.We wouldn't hesitate for a second to use Annika again if we're buying in the future. If you're looking for a buyers agent who is not only incredibly skilled but also genuinely cares, Annika is your person!
We had a brilliant experience with Brooke and Lili and I know we never would have secured our property had it not been for their knowledge and contacts. They really listened, answered all our questions, allowed us to change our minds and change the brief --until we found the perfect place and then they nailed the negotiating. Couldn't be happier. Thank you both.
Lili and Brooke were fantastic to deal with right from the start. They made the whole process of buying our new family home feel straightforward and stress-free. Communication was always clear, they were quick to respond to any questions, and nothing ever felt like too much trouble.There were a few hiccups on our end, and Lili, Brooke and the team at PMC helped us with everything - sourcing all that we needed and gave us all the support to get us over the line.We really appreciated their professionalism and genuine approach throughout – it made a big difference during such a big step for our family. We’d happily recommend them to anyone buying or selling.I could not recommend Lili, Brooke and the team more. If we are ever lucky enough to buy a house again, it will 100% be with PMC buyers.
I can't begin to express our gratitude for Lilli and Brooke from PMC. From the moment we decided to go ahead, they had clarity of our vision and what the perfect home was for us and our family, took the stress out of the search and buying process and just went above and beyond in every aspect. Could not recommend them more xx
Lili and Brooke at PMC are the absolute “A” team and I cannot recommend them highly enough! Their communication and commitment to finding me the right property was excellent. Ultimately the way they expertly managed the auction resulted in me securing my dream home.
Our experience with PMC was excellent from start to finish.Dealing with Matt, Mike and the team was a real pleasure.Our brief was not straight forward however PMC managed to guide us in the right direction, which ultimately achieved a great result in purchasing a property that suits us perfectly.The professionalism and knowledge delivered by PMC was outstanding. Matt and Mike were always available and on top of everything, delivering ideas and suggestions with confidence, experience and warmth.
We came to PMC during a particularly challenging time having already sold our home & needing to find the next one during an unsettling period of consecutive national & school holidays, the election, global tariffs, talk of home loan interest rate cuts, low house stock & thus a potential increase in house prices. All of this made us considerably anxious as we knew it was important to sell & buy in the same market. Lili & Brooke at PMC held our hands through all of this with compassion, assurance & great professionalism. They totally listened & understood our needs & desires for our next home, gave sage advice, ensured we did not act rashly & ultimately, after a thorough & extensive search, found our wonderful new home with the aspect & location we desired. We are so delighted with the outcome. Lili & Brooke were always positive & personable, wonderfully responsive & constantly in contact with updates, meticulous with their due diligence, able to leverage their longstanding & respected relationships with real estate agents in our suburbs of interest, full of renovation ideas where relevant & ensured a seamless transaction process. They always made us feel 100% comforted & trusting that they would see our home purchase dreams realised & they delivered accordingly! We cannot recommend Lili & Brooke & PMC highly enough.
We had the best experience with PMC. Lily and the team were phenomenal. They helped us secure our dream home. They gave us comfort over the real value of the property vs emotional value. We would hands down use PMC and team if we buy again. Thank you so much!
I was sceptical about buyers agents, having never used one before but PMC absolutely delivered on what they claimed in our initial meetings. They got me into lots of places which were not on the market which were exactly what I asked for in my brief. They also asked the right questions at the viewings and actually helped talk me out of a couple of places which would have been nowhere near as right for me as the one we eventually purchased. They also probably made back their fee in price negociations anyway. Cannot recommend them highly enough.
We had the pleasure of working with Lili and the team at PMC Property Buyers and couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the beginning, Lili’s professionalism, insight, and genuine support stood out. She guided us through every step with calm confidence and a clear strategy.This past weekend, Lili and her team successfully secured us a property at auction we’re so excited to call home. Their communication, care, and attention to our needs made what could have been a daunting experience into an enjoyable and rewarding one which felt smooth and stress-free.We’re incredibly grateful to Lili and her team and would highly recommend PMC to anyone looking for a supportive, knowledgeable team to help navigate the property market.Nick & Michela
We would 100% recommend engaging PMC.From the first meeting, Matt and Mike really helped us align on our property goals. They are incredibly knowledgeable and approachable and we really valued their market expertise alongside their agent relationships to get us early inspections.They really listened to our needs, and we still can’t believe that in just over a month of working together, they helped us find and secure our first family home prior to auction. We have felt really supported throughout the whole process.As one of the biggest purchases you will ever make, we would highly recommend partnering with Matt, Mike and the team. Thank you PMC for being honest, genuine and making purchasing a home a stress-free reality!
We had been looking in Manly and Fairlight for some time and were unsuccessful on a number of properties. Instructing Mike and Matt at PMC was the best move that we made in our property search. The key for us was identifying properties before they came to market to increase our chances of success. PMC’s relationships with local agents and knowledge of the market was second to none. They managed the process from start to finish and were incredibly diligent at the final stages. We now have our dream home on the Manly flats. Highly recommend.
We had no chance of buying a house without the assistance of PMC. The market (Sydney and post-Covid), the area (Balgowlah) and our budget meant we were pushing a barrow up a hill. We were able to purchase the absolute right home for us in the space of 7 days from receiving a text from Mike and contract exchange. We would not have been able to do so without the months of preparation and advice from Mike and Matt. Many thanks PMC!
My brother and I were looking to purchase an investment property in Newcastle and was recommended PMC Property Buyers through a friend.We could not have been happier working with Jess and Will to find a suitable property that matched our challenging brief. We ended up securing a property in a suburb that originally was not on our radar which had far greater potential than those we had originally targeted. As we are based in Sydney it was of great benefit having Jess be able to visit potential properties up in Newcastle and leverage off her local knowledge and connections.Jess was instrumental to the success of our offer being accepted as she developed an offer which appealed to the vendor directly and separated us from the competition. Her communication was excellent throughout and she went above and beyond to ensure the whole process was as seamless as possible even when dealing with some challenges that arose along the way.Karen the PMC Property Manager has been excellent to work with and has assisted in arranging some repairs/improvements and getting the house ready for rent.I would highly recommend PMC Property Buyers and hope to work with them again in the future.
Liliana and her team spent time to ensure they knew what we were looking for, tested out some properties to check what felt right for me and relentlessly pursued finding the right homes for me to see.Lily takes care to ensure all property factors are checked out thoroughly and is careful to apply building/pest inspections where we both feel the property is shortlisted.No time wasting but also no shortcuts to their approach.I would summarise the experience as one of high care, highly efficient, professional and incredibly friendly and easy.I wouldn’t have my home today which is perfect for me, without their help.
Stressless. Diligent. Informed. Targeted.Our brief, with all its specific idealistic requests amazingly matched.A place we would never have found, negotiated at a fair price. We are grateful and excited our story continues in our new home.🙏
Matt, Mike and the PMC were really fabulous. They were friendly, responsive, professional and absolute experts at their job. We are so pleased we engaged them- we are now happily settled in our new home.
The team at PMC are awesome. We bought our first property with them this year and it wouldn't have been possible to get such a quality place without the help. They were extremely patient and collaborative in the process as we refined our brief - and always made us feel like they were operating with our best interests at heart. Would recommend them for anyone who needs a buyers agent
We had Josh and Chelsea from PMC help us find and secure our dream property. Both of them were you extremely professional to deal with and went above and beyond to help us find exactly what we were after in a very tricky market. Their communication, dedication and overall passion was evident throughout the whole process and we wouldn’t hesitate to have them on board the next time we are searching for a property. We were very specific (picky) about what we were after and they helped us navigate our purchase from selection to due diligence to auction strategy. They are experts in their field and I wouldn’t entrust anyone else with such an impor
PMC Property Buyers helped me purchase a new property recently. It was the first time I have used a buyers agent but definitely will not be the last! The team helped prepare a brief, which provided a very clear picture on the type, location and budget of what I was looking for. This dramatically refined all of the confusion I've felt when trying to make a property purchase previously, narrowing the search to something very specific. They then went about finding the exact right fit for me. This meant that I did not need to spend the entire day of every weekend traipsing from one property to the next because the team only presented me with property's that specifically met the brief. It was a far more strategic approach which saved me a tremendous amount of time in comparison to previous purchases I have made. Then when we found the right property, they had all the documentation prepared and ready to present a very compelling offer on the same day, and this secured the property right there and then. A no nonsense, precise approach which eliminated all of the typical (very annoying) blind negotiations. They also prepared a thorough valuation ahead of the offer, which meant I knew I was not paying more than I should for the property based on recent sales data. This even included speaking to other owners at the location.
I cannot recommend PMC Property highly enough! From our first meeting to exchange day, Liliana O’Toole was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive.Throughout the entire process, Liliana and her team demonstrated a deep understanding of the local real estate market and provided invaluable insights that helped us make informed decisions. Liliana took the time to understand our needs and preferences, showing us a range of properties that matched our criteria perfectly.What truly sets Liliana and her team apart is their dedication and responsiveness. She was always available to answer our questions, no matter how big or small, and kept us updated every step of the way. Liliana’s attention to detail and proactive approach ensured that nothing was overlooked and was always one step ahead in anticipating potential issues.Negotiating the purchase price and terms can be a daunting task, but Liliana handled it with ease and confidence. She advocated strongly on our behalf, securing a fantastic deal that exceeded our expectations.In addition to their expertise and professionalism, the entire team at PMC are genuinely personable and easy to work with. Their positive attitude and unwavering commitment to our satisfaction made the entire home-buying experience smooth and enjoyable.Thanks to PMC Property, we are now settled into a beautiful home that we absolutely love. If you are looking for a buyers agent who will go above and beyond to help you find your dream home, look no further than PMC. They are truly the best in the business!
Will Hosking helped us find, negotiate and purchase our first investment property in 2014, and continued to provide us with support and guidance all the way through to sale 10 years on. Living in another state could have meant we felt disconnected with the property process, but Will did a great job at always keeping us fully informed and feeling comfortable. Our expectations were met with a solid 7% return on investment. Will is a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend using PMC if considering purchasing a property.
Mike and Lili of PMC were of great help in helping my wife and I in purchasing our new family home. The insights of the areas proved invaluable in securing the right place for us as well as the attention to detail on properties that we otherwise just wouldnt have thought of. Would use again!
My wife and I have moved a lot in our time together and we have only used a buyers agent twice, and this the agency you want. Marcus was our agent and spent so much time and effort finding us our first home in Sydney. He managed to find us a lovely townhome, just one area away from our desired location and it checked so many boxes. My partner wanted an outdoor space and outlook of nature. Private but not out of the city too much, and I was looking for something "turn-key" with a lock up garage. Marcus got me two garages. Thanks so much. If you are on the fence about a buyers agent, it is the way to go. Many properties are available off market and PMC has their finger on the pulse.
It was a pleasure to work with Matt, Mike and Brooke at PMC. Their extensive knowledge of the area, property market and agents was amazing and their expert advice was always timely and insightful. Professional, friendly and always responsive, we wouldn't hesitate to recommend PMC.
I worked with PMC for a year and gained the mantle of their longest client, which is funny because I only bought a one bedroom apartment.I had a tight budget and didn't think I could afford a buyer's agent. I also wasn't sure I needed one because I'm a real estate lawyer. After a selling agent recommended Matt to me, I decided to have a chat to him to see if and how he could help with my search. I was a first time buyer buying in an area I hadn't previously lived in, so I didn't know the market. Matt told me what areas I could and could not afford - he's direct and will tell you how it is, which I appreciate. At the time, I didn't appreciate how much value they'd bring to the table. Not only do they do all the heavy lifting on filtering, so you don't waste time looking at dud properties, they also do due diligence for you, negotiate the purchase price and give you emotional support along the journey. Matt has worked as a mortgage broker, selling agent and now buyers agent - he's knows the industry and NB market inside out. I worked with him and the amazing Brooke for a year and ended up finding my dream apartment. The fact it took a year to find is no reflection on them - there was low stock and I knew I wanted to wait for the right place. I ended up buying off market. There is a zero per cent chance I'd have got the apartment without working with PMC. Importantly, they never pressured me to buy something that didn't feel right.I think it's fair to say that the property I bought is at the lower end of the value spectrum of what PMC deal with. I never felt that for a second in terms of the service they provide. I was so impressed with the team - they are great at what they do and lovely people as well. Working with a buyer's agent can be an intimate experience - you're talking about your finances and how you like to live. By the end of the search, Brooke knew me so well, she'd know exactly what I'd say about a property. Her relentless enthusiasm that she'd find me something great kept me going when I got fed up with the market. For me it was important to work with a trusted advisor and someone I liked. I'm glad the search is over but I will miss talking to Matt and Brooke each week.There is a reason PMC have so many 5 star reviews - they are a stellar team and the service they provide is first rate. I can't believe now that I ever considered buying a property without their help.
We had a great experience working with PMC. We wouldn't have been able to buy our property without their support. We conducted a series of off-market inspections, and the team was always very prepared and professional. We highly recommend working with PMC as buyer's agents.
I cannot recommend the PMC team highly enough. Matt, Mike and Brooke took the time to understand our needs and we always felt listened to.They provided us with top quality properties to view and consider but never pushed anything on to us - always considering our feedback and refining the brief.We benefited from their relationships with local agents and ended up exchanging on a property that we had initially felt was out of our range, but which they sensed could be "in play" mid-campaign based on those relationships. They helped us understand the value and risks associated with the property and then worked closely with us to devise and execute a strategy to secure it for us.Special mention to Brooke whose appreciation of our needs and ability to listen and communicate with us ensured we had complete trust in the whole team.
We cannot speak highly enough of Will, Mike and Matt at PMC. They helped us source a pre-market opportunity in a very competitive market, and took all the leg work out of the process for us, from start to finish. We appreciated their deep knowledge of the local area, and their insights and guidance as we moved through the diligence, negotiation and settlement process. Mike was extremely patient and responsive throughout, and was clearly very focused on achieving a great outcome for us. Would highly recommend them for anyone looking to buy in the Northern Beaches.
We had been looking for some months to find a property only to be disappointed at auction or with unrealistic price guides.So we decided to engage PMC to do the legwork.Four weeks later Liliana and Marcus found a property which ticked all the boxes in our price range.Our experience was seamless and successful, saving us time and ultimately getting us into the property we can now call a home.
Working in the property industry myself one would think, why would you need a buyer agent? Those people couldn’t be more wrong! Matt and Brooke sourced and negotiated exactly the property we were after which is no easy feat in a low supply environment. Having a specialist on your side means you to be advised by their extensive expertise of whole market and allows you to continue with your life without a protracted property search - which can often be equivalent to a part time job in terms of hours and end up costing you whilst the market is moving.
Matt and Brooke provided fantastic guidance and support to us in our journey to find the right house. They clearly understood our requirements, and were able to challenge our thinking and provide different perspectives on several properties they introduced us to before they helped find "the one" for us. Having them in our corner for the negotiation process gave us confidence and comfort that was definitely lacking before we engaged their help. We would highly recommend Matt and Brooke from PMC.
Lilliana, Elise and the team, made us feel very comfortable. We felt a weight lifted off our shoulders once we signed with them. Highly recomended, and very frofessional.
Mike and Lili did a great job guiding us to secure our property on the northern beaches. We spent around 2 years attempting ourselves without success, with PMC we secured a property within a month. Their knowledge and access to the market, guidance on budget vs expectations and support with the process made a big difference for us. Highly recommended. Thanks again guys!
I would highly recommend the services of PMC Property and Andy Layton.From our initial consultation with Andy right through to exchanging on an amazing property, we found Andy to be honest, transparent, adaptable, hardworking and proactive.He was attentive to our needs and requirements and offered honest feedback whilst always having our best interests and outcomes at front of mind.Our goals even changed throughout the purchasing process and Andy was able to adapt and ultimately secure us a dream property and really took the stress out of the process for us.For anyone looking at engaging a buyers agent, look no further than Andy and the team at PMC.
Best decision we ever made.My wife and I had been looking around the Northern Beaches for a few months to understand the market. We both work in sales related roles and knew that we needed an edge if we were to find the right property at a reasonable price. Our mortgage broker recommended PMC .We'd also asked multiple sellers agents over a couple of months and heard PMC come up multiple times as tenacious operators who sellers agents rated highlyArmed with these recommendations we contacted PMC and started our journey Mike and Matt.They drew out of us what was important to us, and helped us clarify what was really important vs "just nice to have". The process they used was very well thought out, clearly designed to work through the emotions that inevitably arise, and further to put people in a position to make fast decisions confidently without regrets. They coached us through the process which gave us real confidence when it mattered most.We ended up looking a couple of properties in different suburbs as we honed in what we wanted and what was possible within our budget. The house we ended up buying was one we thought might have been outside of our budget. However, thanks to Mike and Matt's knowledge & experience, of sellers agents we were able to secure the property after some negotiations against a couple of other buyers.Their understanding of how the seller's agent worked, what was going on in the market, how to construct a compelling offer to the seller, and years of experience in negotiating property deals were instrumental in helping us secure the property prior to auction.Looking back we are both certain that there's no way we could have secured the property without their help. Everything was taken care of for us - they managed all the communications with our lawyer and the sellers agent to ensure that all the boxes were ticked and the deal got done with minimal fuss and effort on our part. The after sale support with the team was great.If you're looking for help to buy into tightly held Northern Beaches market-we'd recommend Mike, Matt and the PMC team without hesitation.
Living in Brisbane, we couldn't have bought an apartment like we did in Sydney without the help of PMC. Andy at PMC tirelessly scoured our target areas to find suitable apartments for us, many not yet on the market. He attended open days for us, sent us video of his inspections, and sounded out realistic price expectations for us. He worked tirelessly, was always available, and never became discouraged when we said "not this one, keep looking!". With the help of Matt, they refined our brief and tested the compromises we would have to make to stay within budget. They seemed so well in tune with what we were after. Their experience was invaluable in determining which properties would make both good investments AND suit the lifestyle we were seeking. Finally, they found an apartment that exceeded our brief but was still within budget, and facing three competitors at an on-line auction, Will and Andy strategically prepared and placed bids so that we finished on top and closed the deal at a great price. I have no hesitation in recommending PMC and its wonderful staff if you need support to find just the right place. They take all the hassle out of the process!
We worked closely with Matt and Mike for the purchase of our first family home in Curl Curl. After living overseas for 5 years we felt a buyers agent could support us with narrowing in on what we were looking for while also managing negotiations and getting us the best price possible.We were so impressed with PMC and the support we got finding and purchasing our house. Matt and Mike went above and beyond to ensure we had seen various properties, discussed pros and cons of each and after only 4/5 months found the perfect place for us. They executed the sale perfectly securing us the property before auction and within our budget.Thanks again to the entire team for a great experience and all the support!Lisa & Marc

Client Experience
We had a fantastic experience working with Palise Property as our buyer’s agent. They secured a commercial property in QLD for us and made the entire process incredibly streamlined and stress-free. Their professionalism, clear communication, and attention to detail stood out from start to finish. We felt well supported at every stage and couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Highly recommend Palise Property to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and reliable buyer’s agent.
This is my second time working with the Palise team on a commercial property purchase, and once again they have been fantastic. They are extremely helpful, professional, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. Commercial purchases are far more complex than residential ones, and the team guided me every step of the way while also providing honest, practical feedback on each property considered. It’s reassuring to know I don’t have to be the expert — I can rely on Palise for their experience and expertise.
Steve and his team were great throughout the whole process. They kept us informed every step of the way (for a first time buyer) and made us feel very comfortable and always available to talk to us if we had any questions. I would highly recommend to anyone that is unsure and looking to take the next step into commercial property.
Highly recommend Palise Property ! Great response times and really big help for my first commercial purchase !
Really impressed with the service and knowledge from the team at Palise Property. Buying a home is a big and often complicated step, so having people you trust guiding you through every stage makes all the difference.
Huge thanks to the team at Palise Property for helping me settle on my property.A massive thanks to Matt especially – he helped me pick the property and has educated me along the way, which made a huge difference and gave me confidence through the whole process.I really appreciate the support, knowledge, and guidance I’ve received. Highly recommend Palise Property if you’re looking for genuine advice and people who actually care about your outcome.
We had an excellent experience with the team at Palise Property! Their professionalism, market knowledge, and clear communication made the buying process seamless and stress-free. They were proactive, thorough, and secured a fantastic result for us. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dedicated buyers agent
Bought a residential property with Palise. Matt was excellent from start to finish, going well beyond what was required. He followed through on everything and even organised a bathroom renovation for us. Huge thanks to Matt and the Palise team!
I said previously that I will be using Steve and his team for future purchases…well, here I am again. Great team who are able to source excellent properties with great growth potential and solid tenants. This will set me up for a dependable passive income stream come retirement. Thanks Steve and the crew - Adrian and Robert and everyone else
The whole team at Palise property worked together to get us a result we would never have been able to achieve ourselves. Our first commercial property purchase felt confident because of their processes and experience.
I highly recommend Steve and his team. They are experts at what they do, focus on the relationship and have a collaborative spirit, making us feel supported the whole way through.
Had a great strategy session with the team. The key thing for me was that they took the time to understand my goals and discussed various strategies for growth. Really good insights and lots to think about. Would recommend chatting with the team if you are looking at commercial property!
We recently acquired our first commercial property through our SMSF with the assistance of Palise Property. The entire process was seamless from inception to completion. As a buyer's agent, their expertise transformed what could have been an overwhelming experience into a smooth and manageable journey. They meticulously guided us through each step, ensuring clarity and confidence in our decisions. Their communication was prompt, their attention to detail impeccable, and their support genuinely tailored to meet our needs.If you are in search of a buyer's agent who is trustworthy, professional, and sincerely dedicated to your success, Palise Property is the unequivocal choice. We are profoundly grateful for making this milestone stress-free and straightforward—we cannot recommend them more highly.Thank you to Steve and all his team
Working with Palise Property was an absolute pleasure. Their team made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. They really took the time to understand what we were looking for and were incredibly patient with all our questions. I'd definitely recommend Palise Property to anyone looking for a buyer's agent who genuinely cares about finding you the right property. Thanks for all your hard work!
Palise Property were easy to deal with throughout the process. They were friendly and understanding, while also providing many quality properties.I will definitely be back.
I would give 6 stars if I could! What a team these guys are.After having a few meetings with other commercial BA’s - I had the best feeling and decided to go with Palise and I wasn’t wrong in making that choice .Everything was easy , quick and smooth. Everyone communicated along the way all the time and they found us a property pretty quickly.Not only did they find us a property - it was what we wanted - with an even better yeild/return than we thought .Couldn’t recommend them enough.
Steve and the team over-delivered. Thanks to their work we have secured a really high quality property within our budget. Not only is the yield really excellent (a nice change from residential properties) and hassle-free, there is also the potential to divide the property into two smaller units at a higher square meter rate in the future. Solid, steady, but with potential for value-added down the road. We are very happy with the result. The purchase process was very well handled.
Very happy with our experience with Palise Property. The team communicate well and make the process of finding, reviewing and buying an investment property easy. Peace of mind is worth money.
Clear and concise information with great documents to print out and help you with your journey into commercial property investing.-and if you haven't already, check out the podcast as well!!Well done Steve and team!👌
The team made purchasing our 1st investment property very easy. Their knowledge was fantastic and was framed to suit our personal needs.
A perfect tutorial which covers almost everything I need to know about commercial investment in Australia. I am a New Zealand investor considering moving to Australia. This tutorial gives me confidence and the knowledge about investing in Australia. I look forward to meeting the tutor in the future.
We came to Palise Property via Steve's books and podcast. I found the market experience, knowledge and systemised, data driven approach very helpful. Its been a pleasure to work with the Palise team (Letitia, Angela, Liam & Adrian).

Huge supporters of the Palise crew!When we first engaged with the Palise team, it was through a personalised phone call swiftly followed by a number of informative chats with his team.We eventually locked in a property and pressed GO. The entire team were fabulous, right through to all his recommended partners of each different service component (financing, legals etc).Couldn’t recommend this service more highly and it was worth every cent of our investment to be guided through the process so clearly and simply. There truly are no dumb questions with these guys!Bravo Steve & team
Highly recommend doing the Commercial Property course as it is very well considered and structured with detail across a number of areas whether you are a first time or seasoned commercial investor. I found it very useful with lots of great and relevant content.
Love this course. It’s very informative and explained well. Thoroughly enjoying, thanks for putting it together so well and allowing me to learn about commercial property.
Steve and his team provided a great buying experience, from the initial strategy conversations all the way to settlement the support and attention to detail was second to none. Steve's beard care tips are also on point!

The whole experience ran smoothly. We will definitely work with Steve and the Team again for the next one. Happy to recommended!
Awesome experience from start to finish.The Palise Property team made my commercial property purchase easy . I was kept up to date through the whole process. I would definitely recommend Palise Property and will be using them again.
A big thanks to Letitia and Palise Property. Employing Palise Property meant we could expand our search to find our best solution across the whole of Australia rather than just the limited areas I had knowledge of. It also meant that the complexities and logistics of purchasing interstate were made so much easier. I would not have had the confidence or ability to make the second biggest financial investment so far on an interstate purchase without the expertise and assembled experts of Palise Property.Thank you Steve and the team 🙂
We used Palise Property for the purchase of a commercial property in Brisbane North. The Palise team were professional and highly engaging throughout the entire process. Their expertise in sourcing the property, conducting due-diligence (which was very informative) & providing referrals to other professionals when needed is second to none. Thank you again to the team involved Liam & Anita. Would highly recommend this service to friends & family
My first journey, my first commercial purchase with Palise Property and first of hopefully many more.Steve and his team namely Liam, Adrian and Sarah were always available for advice, guidance and much more!Its an involved process to say the least but with Steve and his team the hurdles were tackled and deadlines met with professionalism and attention to detail!Palise Property. Helping people make the Aussie dream possible.Patrick

What does a buyer’s agent do?
A buyer’s agent (or BA for short) is a real estate professional who works exclusively for buyers, not sellers. Their role is to help you source and secure the right property, at the right price.
Over a quarter of NSW homebuyers and investors (26%) say they are seeking property advice.
Their services include:
- Develop a brief with you to understand your preferred property type
- Source suitable options in the Sydney postcodes you prefer, including off-market properties that aren’t publicly advertised
- Attend inspections on your behalf, including inspections scheduled on weekends
- Assess property values using comparable sales in RP Data and other databases
- Conduct due diligence, including reviewing contracts, zoning and insurance risks
- Negotiate the purchase price and terms on your behalf and bid at auction if required
- Manage the buying process from inspection through to settlement
Who uses a buyer’s agent?
Because buyer’s agents do all the legwork of buying property, they’re commonly used by:
- Homebuyers who don’t have time to search listings or attend inspections
- First-home buyers who need guidance navigating their purchase
- Investors looking for high-yield properties in Sydney and surrounding areas
- Downsizers who want help finding the right-sized property
- Interstate or overseas buyers who can’t inspect properties in person
- Buyers who want access to off-market properties in Greater Sydney
Why use a buyer’s agent in Sydney?
Sydney is one of the most competitive and expensive property markets in Australia, with the median house price around $1.64 million and the median unit price about $888,000, according to PropTrack.
Using a buyer’s agent in Sydney who has strong relationships with local real estate agents and access to off-market listings can give you a competitive advantage over solo buyers.
The two main advantages are:
- Buy below the asking price: Buyer’s agents understand local pricing and use negotiation strategies that can help secure a property at 5–10% below the listed price in some cases.
- Access to off-market properties: Buyer’s agents often have access to homes and units being sold privately before they’re publicly advertised. This can give you the chance to secure a property before it hits the open market and avoid competition from other buyers.
How to choose a buyer’s agent in Sydney
It’s important to choose a buyer’s agent who knows the Sydney property market inside out, is transparent about their fees from the outset, and has a strong network of industry contacts. Just as importantly, you should feel comfortable working with them.
When selecting a buyer’s agent, consider asking:
- How long have you been a buyer’s agent in Sydney?
- Do you have strong knowledge of the areas and postcodes I’m looking to buy in?
- Do you own investment or residential property yourself?
- What properties have you helped clients purchase recently?
- What qualifications or licences do you hold?
- Do you have strong industry contacts to source suitable properties, including off-market opportunities?

Frequently asked questions about Sydney buyer’s agents
How much does a buyer’s agent cost in Sydney?
Buyer’s agents in Sydney usually charge an upfront engagement fee, commonly between $4,000 and $10,000, to begin the search process. On top of that, they’ll charge a success fee of 2% to 3% of the property purchase price (plus GST), payable once the property is secured (often at conditional approval).
For example, if you purchase a $1.5 million property and your buyer’s agent charges a 2% success fee, the fee would be $30,000, plus GST. Buyer agency fees vary depending on the location within Sydney, the complexity of the brief and market competition.
Which licences and accreditations do Sydney buyer’s agents need?
To operate legally and professionally in Sydney, buyer’s agents must satisfy specific education, licensing and regulatory requirements in NSW.
Educational requirements:
A Sydney-based buyer’s agent should have completed the NSW Certificate IV in Real Estate Practice with relevant buyer’s agent electives, or — if they already hold a real estate licence — a specialised Buyer’s Agent Course from REINSW or other approved providers.
Real Estate Agent licence:
Class 2 Real Estate Agent licence — This is required for solo buyer’s agents operating under a licensed real estate agency in NSW.
Class 1 Real Estate Agent licence — This is required for buyer’s agents running their own independent agency in NSW.
Other requirements:
Buyer’s agents must also complete a police check and obtain appropriate professional insurance as part of industry compliance and consumer protection.
Membership to REBAA:
This isn’t a licensing requirement, but many buyer’s agents in Sydney are members of the Real Estate Buyers Agents Association of Australia (REBAA). It’s the industry body for BAs in Australia. REBAA members must uphold a Code of Conduct in all their professional dealings.
What’s the difference between a buyer’s agent and real estate agent?
The key difference is who they represent. A real estate agent works for the seller of a property. Their job is to market the property and manage the sale, with the aim of achieving the highest possible price for the vendor (their commission is tied to the final figure).
A buyer’s agent, on the other hand, represents the buyer. Their job is to find a property that fits your brief, attend inspections on your behalf, and handle contract negotiations to help you secure the property for the lowest possible price in Sydney’s competitive market.
How do buyers’ agents in Sydney access off-market properties?
Buyer’s agents in Sydney access off-market properties mainly through their networks and industry relationships. Because they work in the market every day, they often hear about properties before they’re publicly listed.
Here are the main ways they get access to off-market deals:
1. Relationships with selling agents
Buyer’s agents often have strong relationships with real estate agents across Greater Sydney. Because of this, selling agents will sometimes contact them directly when they have a property they want to sell quickly before listing it on sites like Domain or realestate.com.au.
2. Pre-market listings
Some homes are shown to a small group of buyers before they officially go live on real estate websites. Buyer’s agents are often included in these early viewings.
3. Vendor outreach
Some buyer’s agents directly contact homeowners in suburbs their clients are targeting through letterbox drops, phone calls, or door knocking, to see if they’d consider selling for the right price.
4. Developer and project relationships
Buyer’s agents often have relationships with developers and can access off-the-plan apartments or new townhouse projects before public marketing begins.
