Client experiences
My experience with Mark was great. On top of being highly knowledgable about houses and a pleasure to deal with, he was patient and supportive throughout the entire process. Thanks to his expertise, he made the whole home buying journey a lot less stressful.
We used the services of WREA to purchase our future family home. As we live overseas, we needed someone on the ground in Melbourne to view properties and provide expert opinion. Mark was very responsive and easy to contact. Even with the time zone difference, Mark was available to provide insight and advice when needed.We had a couple of last minute viewing requests that Mark was able accommodate. And his walkthrough and videos greatly helped. Mark was also able to help us with the negotiations with the agent, and to secure the property.Overall Mark was very flexible with his time to be able to help us, often with very last minute notice. And it was extremely helpful to be able to have someone in the industry to speak with during our search for a property
My wife and I were both first home buyers and knew nothing about houses or the process of buying them. In addition, we were trying to buy interstate with small kids so traveling to Melbourne frequently for inspections was out of the question. Mark helped us inspect several properties: making thorough videos where he would point out the good bits and the bad bits of each property. He guided us towards good properties given our preferences and away from properties that looked good on paper but really had issues that we would come to regret. He then helped negotiate a good deal and saved us quite a bit of money. In addition, since we're new to Melbourne, Mark also recommended tradies to help us get some repairs done before we move in. I would fully recommend him as a buyers agent and look forward to working with him again next time we're in the market.
Mark acts very fast and he will also tell you NOT to buy a defected property.I need a buyer agent that gives me proper advice, not only tells me to buy buy buy.As a first time buyer, it is very easy to omit some points that may cause problems when saling the property in the future. Mark points out the detects and suggest me not to buy the wrong one. I bought a nice house that is closed to school and in a quite neighbohood.Mark is the one I truly need.I would recommend Mark as your buyer agent.
What a great experience! As an anxious (and some may say fussy…) first home buyer purchasing on my own and searching for 18+months, Mark helped me secure a dream apartment to live in. His carefully considered strategy along with a calm and reassuring demeanor was invaluable and I can’t imagine having done it without him. Thanks so much Mark.
Mark made the process easy. With his knowledge as a former real estate agent, he provides an advantage to seeing all sides of the property process.
As an interstate buyer we were very nervous about getting into the Melbourne market but Mark made us feel at ease and his wealth of knowledge of the areas we were looking at was comprehensive. The videos that he provided made us feel like we were walking through the place ourselves. Thank you so much Mark.
I am very happy to recommend Wise Real Estate Advice. Video assessments and valuation reports were very insightful and helped highlight property strengths, weaknesses and realistic property valuations. Mark Ribarsky provided an excellent negotiating buyer agency service. We were well prepared and performed well at auctions.
Mark made the process of purchasing an apartment a breeze, and his work was the difference between --Option 1: buying a dodgy place at inflated prices by myself with no knowledge of the real estate game and --Option 2: making the best use of the finances I had to ensure I bought a great apartment without over-spending. I'm so glad I went with Option 2! The real estate game is so complicated at the moment and I was so glad to have his experience. Can't recommend highly enough.
Mark assisted me in purchasing an investment property. I was initially overwhelmed with the process but through his sound advice and expertise Mark not only put my mind at ease, with his personable nature he actually made it a really exciting and enjoyable experience. I can't imagine how stressful I would have found it without him! The video recordings he sent of his inspections were clear, thorough and very frank. With his local knowledge he pointed out things about the surrounding areas I would never have been aware of, being from interstate. Without his assistance I have no doubt I would have made a poor investment, but thanks to him I now have a beautiful apartment in a fantastic area that will generate a good return, and that at some point down the track I will enjoy for my personal use. Thank you so much for your help, Mark, I can't recommend your services enough!
We found Mark and his company through a Google search and noted his high reviews. Our circumstances were that we wanted to purchase a property in Melbourne but were living in New Zealand. Mark made this process so easy and saved us thousands of dollars with his sharp negotiations. The key points from working with Mark are:1. Has a very good knowledge of the Melbourne Property market2. Has excellent attention to detail when it comes to property inspections3. Was on the money in terms of what properties were worth4. Sent us really detailed videos of the properties he inspected for us.We were a little nervous purchasing a property without physically seeing it but when we did finally see it we knew we had made a good choice. Thanks Mark.
I recently purchased a property through Mark. He was extremely professional. As an overseas buyer, he helped me tremendously through the process. He was always available to answer questions and refer conveyancers and inspection companies. He is a genuine buyer's agent that cares about his clients. The real estate market in Australia is very competitive, and Mark gives straightforward advice, resulting in great outcomes. Highly recommended.

Client experiences
In my nearly 9 Years in Real Estate, I've never dealt with such an honest, down-to-earth advocate, in this instance I was dealing with Alan as a Vendors advocate for his sellers, he was great and 100% looked after his clients best interests. I would highly recommend his services if you need any assistance with buying and selling.
I had an excellent experience working with Zach from PHB!As a first home buyer, Zach was patient and attentive to my evolving selection criteria from the very beginning to ensure we found the right property. His expert industry knowledge helped me navigate the market with confidence and was invaluable in steering me away from potential money pits. A huge part of the process was locating the right place but he also negotiated a great price!I’ve already recommended Zach to friends and would do for anyone looking for a knowledgeable and professional buyer’s agent.
Wanted to post about by excellent experience dealing with Property Home Base, especially Mrs Jodie English in particular as she was the one assigned to us. Firstly, she was very professional and proactive - helping us narrow down our search criteria for our dream apartment and then guided us through the pros and cons of what to look for when apartment hunting. She also recommended and organized some inspections for us based on the requirements we gave. Overall it was an amazing experience and I would high recommend using them to anyone else on the fence!
I had a fantastic experience with Jo-Anne Davies from Property Home Base. Jo was recommended to me by a work colleague who had a great experience with her and she did not disappoint! Jo was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable and supportive through out the whole process. Jo bid at auction for me and she was cool and confident, I was very glad to have her in my corner! Unfortunately we got out bid at auction, but were able to secure an off market property a month later. As a single woman buying my first property in my 30s, I felt quite overwhelmed by the thought of undertaking an apartment hunt alone. Once I engaged Jo, I knew I’d made a great decision and felt supported 100% of the way.
I can't say enough good things about Jodie! As a first-time homebuyer, I was nervous about the entire process, but Jodie made it incredibly easy and reassuring. Her expertise and knowledge in the field are truly impressive.She went above and beyond to ensure that I found the perfect home, and her strategy in winning the auction was flawless. Thanks to her dedication, I felt supported every step of the way.If you’re looking for an agent who truly cares and knows how to get results, look no further—Jodie is the one! Highly recommended.
Jo-Anne’s knowledge, support and guidance was invaluable as we went through the process of finding a property. She provided options and honest opinions to help us secure our perfect home, from the inspections through auction preparation and finally vendor negotiations. Thank you!
I am incredibly grateful to Mark for his invaluable assistance in helping me purchase my new home. Without his expertise, I wouldn't have been able to secure this property.Mark's deep knowledge of the local real estate market was evident from the start. He listened attentively to my needs and preferences.Mark's great network of professionals to make the process less confusing to friend piece of mind that the property is in good condition. His recommendations for a mortgage broker and building inspector were absolutely fantastic. Both professionals were excellent, quick and communication was great. It made the financial and inspection processes seamless and efficient.Throughout the entire buying process, Mark was responsive and always had my best interests at heart. He provided invaluable guidance during negotiations and ensured that every detail was taken care of.I highly recommend Mark to anyone looking to buy a home, (especially first time home buyers). His expertise, professionalism, and commitment to his clients are unmatched. Thank you, Mark, for making my home buying experience successful with the property that I wanted.
Highly recommended! They were very professional, and helped me through the process of buying a new home. Mark was always available to answer my questions, provide important research and give referrals.
Couldn’t be happier with my Property Home Base experience. As a first time buyer navigating a real estate environment very different what I’m used to, Julie and the team gave me the support and advice I needed.
We had an an excellent experience working with Jo-Anne. After 10 months of searching for a property on our own with no success we had reach a level of decision fatigue. We met with Jo-anne and gave her our briefing. She took us back to a property we had seen in January but dismissed and she helped us see its potential. Within a week of connecting with Jo-Anne we had made an offer which was accepted. A thirty day settlement and we moved into a home we love and can make our own over time.Working with Jo-Anne saved us time and money and gave us the confidence to make a decision. Thankyou
Buying a house was confusing and at times overwhelming, the one person who did make the whole process feel less chaotic was Mitch, he really was a incredible help, when we felt like we couldn't rely on our broker it was such a relief that we had Mitch on the ground supporting us through every stage. He really went above and beyond. To any other first home buyers Mitch is the guy you absolutely want on your team. Big shout out to Mitch if we ever recover from buying our current house we will be sure to hit you up again though by that point I am sure you will be running your own buyers agents company! Mitch your dedication and overall customer service was truly memorable Thank you much!
My partner and I are very happy with the service Mitch provided, guiding us through our first home buying journey and making what would've been a daunting task a breeze. He helped us scour through listings, inspect properties for us, organise building and pest inspections, bid on our behalf and much much more. We can't thank him enough for giving us the peace of mind that we really needed as first-time home buyers knowing that if anything happened, he'd be there for us.
I couldn’t speak more highly of Jo-Anne, her expertise, communication and determination was instrumental in helping us secure our first home. We would’ve been lost without her. 10/10
Jo-Anne did a fantastic job in helping us buy our first home. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the market and gave excellent advice on which properties would be most suitable for our needs. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again.
Zack was lovely to deal with throughout the whole campaign. He was very contactable and always gave you a call straight back if he missed you. He was very easy to speak with also. On the auction day, he bid very strong for his clients. Would definitely recommend to any buyers that are looking to purchase a home in the inner north and surrounds.
We’d lost out on a few houses at auctions and were feeling like we’d never land a home. We decided to try a buyer’s advocate to increase our chances of being successful, and to hopefully save us money and ensure we didn’t overpay without realising the true value of a property. We had found the house we desperately wanted to call home. I called Zach and within 24 hours he’d done his research, valued and property, reached out to the agent and put together a plan of attack to help us secure the property. Secure it we did, within 48 hours from first making contact with Zach, and for so much less than we would have paid if we’d done this on our own. It was a pleasure not dealing with agents, and letting experts do their job in a way that we could not have done without them. I will never buy a property again without a buyers advocate. I’ve no doubt we wouldn’t own this home today without Zach, Jack and the team. And if we did, we would have paid tens of thousands more than we did. So grateful and a huge advocate for advocates now!
We had a great experience working with Mark, who assisted us in finding and purchasing a unit for our parents. Mark attended inspections, reviewed contracts, and prepared reports for suitable properties. He also helped us set price limits for auctions. Moreover, he found an off-market property that met our requirements and helped us negotiate the price, which resulted in significant savings for us.We highly recommend Mark!
I was recommended to Julie by my mortgage broker. I had heard a little bit about buyer’s agents from a friend who had used someone else in the past. As a first home buyer, Julie helped me understand the process, negotiated price and dealt with real estate agents on my behalf. She listened to any concerns I had and provided great advice. In under 6 months, I’ve managed to secure an apartment for myself at a great price! An important thing to note is that Property Home Base charge a flat fee unlike other agencies and they offer a first home buyer package, which helped me when I was trying to budget for all the other expenses! I would recommend working with Property Home Base when looking for your home, particularly if you are a first time buyer and need that extra support.
After 18 months of house inspections, negotiations and auctions I was unable to get to the final stages of buying my first home. Feeling defeated by the whole process, my mortgage broker recommended using a buyers advocate from Property Home Base.After my first consultation with Julie, I felt her knowledge and expertise was what I needed to get me over the line. I work full time and most Saturdays so having a team of professionals working on my behalf to crack into the property market made perfect sense. I soon realized I had not been looking in the right suburbs for the type of house I wanted at my price range, Julie’s guidance in these matters was invaluable.Within a month of signing up with Property Home Base I have paid a deposit, completed building and pest inspections and successfully purchased my dream home. Once the decision was made to go for it, our timing was perfect with the owner taking our first offer under the asking price. Everything happened so quickly and without Julie’s fierce negotiations, I truly believe I would have missed this opportunity.I highly recommend using a buyers advocate to advise on properties, locations and their dedicated expertise in the negotiation process.Thank you.Shane.
It has been an absolute pleasure working with Mitch from Property Home Base. The entire process of buying a home has been seamless with Mitch’s expertise and support. I had many requests, and really appreciated the time, diligence and hard work Mitch put in to help me secure my wonderful new home.It was comforting knowing Mitch would be there during the auction and could negotiate on my behalf. A lot of stress was definitely prevented with Mitch providing a sense of comfort and ease throughout.For someone who holds high standards when it comes to customer service, I have to say that Mitch was just fantastic going above and beyond – exceeding in all areas. I am thrilled to move into my first home! Thank you Mitch for helping to make this happen!

Client experiences
It has been a pleasure working with Daniel to secure my new home. He is extremely knowledgeable about the property market and happy to share his this. In addition, he is highly professional, diligent in identifying opportunities and listening/interpreting my requirements by accompanying me on inspections and sending through various opportunities on a near daily basis. He knows all the estate agents so was able to learn of off-market properties and to negotiate successfully on my behalf. I would recommend him to anyone who is seeking an excellent buyer's advocate.
I could not recommend Crystal from Peritum Property anymore if I tried. From the initial conversation to the final emails it was the smoothest and easiest process.Crystal took all the elements of my brief and ran with it. She was open and communicative with me at all hours during the whole period.Crystal found my dream place while I was overseas. She then negotiated for an amazing price and we signed the contract within 24 hours of stepping of the flight!She was so helpful, kind and honest.I will be recommending Crystal to everyone I know. I can’t thank her enough!
Peritum Property, and specifically Brant, has been involved in the successful sales of 3 properties. His knowledge, expertise, advice and friendly informative nature made our dealings with him invaluable and a pleasure. I would recommend him unreservedly.
We approached Crystal Linter with an extremely short timeline and credit her directly for our achievement in purchasing our ideal first home within just 3 weeks. Her rapid responsiveness, meticulous research, and extensive industry expertise were invaluable in navigating us effortlessly through the daunting process. We are immensely thankful for her assistance and wholeheartedly endorse her without reservation.
Professional, friendly service and an extremely hard working team. Brant and his colleagues went out of their way to find me exactly what I was looking for and guided me through each step of the process. I couldn't be happier and highly recommend them. Thank you!
Brant and his team at Peritum Property are brilliant, creating a purchasing process which is simple and stress free.
We were introduced to Daniel through our broker and were impressed from the beginning with his unwavering commitment to find our home. His knowledge of the market and proactive communication helped us land our home and made it an engaging experience. He was an immense help through all stages of searching and the purchase - couldn’t recommend him and the team more!
I've been dealing with Brant for several years now and he's helped a lot of my clients purchase properties, all with glowing reviews!
We greatly appreciated Peritum Properties generous contributions to the local community fundraiser. Great team and always on hand to help.
Looking to buy an investment property in Melbourne was always going to be a tricky proposition for us, living in rural Victoria and working full time. But then we were introduced to Daniel and as soon as we met him we knew everything was going to be so much more straight-forward. His oustanding knowledge of the market, locations and houses, along with his fabulous strategies to keep moving forward were exactly what we were looking for and really needed. He was always keeping us up to date and his walk-through videos were so very helpful in getting a feel for the places we were looking at. Once we had chosen a few places to walk through ourselves, he was fully committed to be with us and talk us through each place we looked at. And to be able to use his exceptional skills to buy before auction was the icing on the cake. Daniel and Peritum Property should be on the top of your list if you are looking to buy property in Melbourne but not sure how to go about it. Recommended without reservation.
We engaged Crystal as a buyer's advocate when searching for an investment property/future downsizer and she has been fabulous every step of the way.Crystal is generous with her knowledge, communicative, responsive, understanding of our needs, and she found properties that we would not have been able to access without her.She was great during the negotiation process, accepting of our budget and boundaries but also knowing when to gently push to make sure we were happy with our decisions.Also importantly, she was very clear from the start on exactly what the service entailed and what the fees would be. Settlement is in a bit over a week's time and we couldn't be happier!
I was introduced to Daniel while I was navigating the purchase of my first home. And I’m so glad for it because this man is truly a star.From day one, I knew I was in good hands. Amazing communication skills and he genuinely cares about what I wanted in a home. Even when I had to be away overseas to handle a family emergency, he reached out and worked behind the scenes for me. That’s dedication.I was truly hoping to purchase without having to go for auction but I guess we can’t have it all! On auction day, while I was a headless chicken internally, Daniel was absolutely composed and confident. Within the next few mins I was signing on the dotted lines. I’ll be honest… without his guidance, I would have never thought that I could own a property like that in this climate. So thanks Daniel. My new home truly fills my heart.
My partner and I engaged in Daniel’s services to make our first home purchase. The market has been extremely tricky during our search but Daniel managed to secure an amazing property for us that ticked all our boxes a week before auction at a fantastic price that we most certainly wouldn’t have achieved without him. Daniel really has the magic touch! He is engaging and always on the ball with his in depth knowledge of the market and is great with communication. From my experience I highly recommend Daniel and Peritum property if you’re looking to engage a buyer’s advocate.
I was introduced to Crystal from Peritum Property by my Mortgage broker, and I couldn't be happier.I was purchasing a property quite late in life and had to be sure it would be the correct property for my retirement either as a dwelling or as an income. I was very nervous and doubtful as I had a very set budget, however, from the initial consultation Crystal set my mind at ease. She was very articulate in her explanation of how the process works and also very knowledgeable, none of my questions went unanswered. Crystal provided exemplary service every step of the way.Her knowledge of the market and attention to detail were evident and I was very impressed as she took the time to understand my needs and preferences, She was very proactive with communication and she kept me informed every step of the way, I appreciate her insights to help me make informed decisions.Crystal went above and beyond to ensure that I found the perfect property, and even attended the auction taking the stress away from me. I felt very confident that Crustal had my best interests at heart.I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone thinking of buying property. If you're looking for someone who really cares and is dedicated and reliable, look no further than Crystal at Peritum Property, she is the best. Thanks Crystal.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Crystal from Peritum Property and I couldn't be happier with the results.I've been trying to find the perfect investment by myself for about 4years, Crystal found it for me in 4weeks!!!From the initial consultation to the final purchase, she provided exemplary service every step of the way.Her knowledge of the market and attention to detail were evident from the start, as she took the time to understand my needs and preferences thoroughly. Crystal was always available to address any concerns I had throughout the process. She was also proactive with communication and attention to detail- she kept me informed every step of the way, promptly addressing any questions or concerns I had and providing thoughtful insights to help me make informed decisions. No question was to small or annoying.Crystal went above and beyond to ensure that I found the perfect property, negotiating on my behalf to secure the best possible deal. Her expertise and guidance were invaluable, and I felt confident knowing that she had my best interests at heart.Thanks to Crystal I found my property stress-free. I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone in need of expert assistance in the real estate market. If you're looking for a dedicated and reliable buyers advocate, look no further than Crystal at Peritum Property!!!!
My family and I want to thank Daniel for his dedication and support in assisting us with the sale of our late mother’s home last weekend.We have all been through so much and were apprehensive in moving the property on but Daniel offered us so much support and guided us every step of the way.He is that “rare gem” you search high and low for and is both honest and knowledgeable in every aspect of real estate.The result we achieved on the auction day was truly remarkable and exceeded all of our expectations.He truly cares for his clients and he had our best interests at heart and worked tirelessly to achieve optimum results, answering all our calls and questions in a professional and timely manner.We would recommend his services to anyone and look toward to working with him in the future.Thanks Daniel.
Thanks so much to Daniel and his team on our successful sale of our investment property. Daniel was so helpful and knowledgeable during our sale. Was also amazing with how responsive and clear he was with us.Will definitely be looking to Daniel and Peritum Property again for future selling/purchasing.

What can I say. My consultant Jamie put me at ease and explained everything perfectly. Thank you. And lookForward to a bright prosperous future
Have nothing but good things to say about the guys at Accrue, they made our tentative first step into the investment world so easy with all of their help. We have been with them for over 6 years now and they are still providing care, advise and access to their vast network of professionalsThanks guysBrendon & Nikki Bowe
Accrue found us a property which has performed very well since we purchased only six months ago. They are quick to respond when seeking clarfication and always friendly and happy to help.
Fantastic company has helped us out over the years can retire a little earlier than first thoughtThank you
Very professional and highly responsive. We have sought to purchase two properties over our time with Accrue and really appreciate the annual review process and their flexibility regarding appointment times.
Accrue has been wonderful in helping us secure an investment property through our superannuation. They look after all the admin to make it a stressless process and connected us with industry professionals to ensure thorough management overall. Highly recommend them and look forward to building our property portfolio under their guidance.
We had a good experience with Accrue Real Estate. They expertly guided us to a great investment property and helped us secure bank loans with favourable terms. Their professionalism, market knowledge, and personalized service were great, making the entire process smooth and successful.
Look, I feel like this company has just taken care of me from the first step to the last step and they keep checking in on me to see if I’ve got the right mortgage to suit me. I was really lucky they explained all the processes and had financial advice from an outside company. In my situation I wasn’t able to use my super but they worked with me to find out how to rectify the situation. It’s been fabulous and I’m really pleased. I can personally say that Jamie at the company has been amazing. From the first moment I met him till just even last week, 6 months after the property settled, he has been amazing. I couldn’t use my super so I had to use my job to buy a property, but I was only working casually and when I finally got a permanent position I rang Jamie and he expedited the whole process so I didn’t miss out on a new build and here I am with an investment property. He was always on the phone always approachable always reachable he kept me in the loop and I was very satisfied with his help. In fact, I feel like my relationship with Jamie means that I would return to Accrue for future investments and my daughter’s future investments. Dear Jamie you’ve been amazing! The other staff who have helped check my mortgage have also been amazing. It doesn’t matter who you deal with at Accrue you’ll be very satisfied with their service -Dear Accrue are there more than five stars to rate this company?I don’t feel 5 stars are enough 😊 thanks guys, since my divorce I felt flat as we had many properties, but now I have one on my own merits. Happy Days Jaime 😊
Accrue has been great every step of the way for us and this has provided us with great confidence that we have all bases covered with our investments.
Very helpful and always gets in touch every year to see how all our finances are going.
When trying to find ways to ensure my future was secured and I was leveraging all the options I had around my tax without being drowned in admin I was introduced to Accrue Real Estate. From the very first meeting they were easy to deal with and guided us on what was available to us. In the 4 years we have been working with them our investment properties have increased by ~60%. We are now looking to expand our portfolio and will be doing this through Accrue
Have been a great help for us. Giving us the knowledge to secure or financial future
Having never bought property before Accrue lead us through the whole process and it has been a very profitable exercise for us. I had lots of questions and I was fully satisfied with the responses including how their business model is aligned with my goals.
The team at Accrue have been fantastic not only in getting me started in my property investing journey, but with on going check ins to evaluate my investments and perform financial health checks. Accrue make everything as easy as possible and are terrific to deal with.
Ever since we walked into the Accrue offices they have been nothing short of amazing. We are several years into our first property with them and their advice and support has been fantastic. It’s a daunting thing going into purchasing another property and wondering if it’s the right decision, but now we are on the other side and it was definitely a great decision.
Accrue have always been very supportive and knowledgeable and have helped put me in contact with good advice networks. The purchase of my property 6 years ago was very straight forward. The annual reviews are also very useful.
Accrue have been fantastic since I have been dealing with them in late 2020. Have started my property portfolio with their help and they have touched base throughout each year to see how things are going and also organised a yearly financial health check. Definitely worth a look if you are thinking of investing in property.

Client experiences
The whole process of bringing a Vendor Advocate on my side during the sale of my home was amazing with Miriam at Property Mavens. Knowing what to ask Real Estate Agents, organising details to get the property ready, through to the final negotiations was so much less stressful. I would have definitely undercut myself in the challenging market we were trying to sell in. With Miriam by my side, she kept me on track and pushed for a much better result. Landing at the top of our new revised range on the day negotiating another $30k on top of where we thought our top price was.Throughout our campaign, Miriam was problem solving to help get reasonable contractors for work needed, advising on copy for advertising and just generally there whenever needed to get things organised.I highly recommend Property Mavens and the whole Vendor Advocate concept.
I had the pleasure of working with Miriam who acted as a vendor's advocate in the sale of 67 Osborne Street, South Yarra.Miriam was easy and transparent to work with and was very helpful in conducting the sale negotiations after the campaign closing date. I have no hesitation in recommending Miriam as a vendor advocate.Anthony GrimwadeDirector - RT Edgar Toorak
I used Property Mavens to search for my first home and I was extremely happy with how Michael worked hard to find me a suitable property and guided me through the process every step of the way with his expertise, knowledge and customer service.Would definitely recommend using the services of Michael and the team at Property Mavens to assist in buying property!
As a first time investor I felt fearful and unsure on who I can trust and what I should do when wanting to start my portfolio. Miriam’s advice made me feel confident to take positive steps forward and made me realize the kind of investor I want to be. Could not give enough praise for her and her team and would recommend it to anyone wanting to take the leap into the property market.
Miriam is a fantastic buyers agent who knows the market and industry very well. She is professional, a great negotiator and communicated all through the process. I appreciated her advice and expertise and will hopefully be using her again!
I recently sold a house with Miriam as vendor advocate and she is the consummate professional. Her attention to detail, follow up, communication and advice is second to none. I would highly recommend her for both buyer and vendor advocacy.
Buying my first investment property with Property Mavens was an incredible experience. The team was highly professional, and their expertise really shone through every step of the way. The whole process ran smoothly, and Miriam found me an immaculate property. I'm extremely happy with their services and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to invest in real estate.
Miriam is extremely knowledgable and great negotiator, was a constant help through out the process.
This is the third time we have used Miriam and her team to purchase a property and we could not be happier with the result.Her advice has saved us thousands. I truly believe her negotiating skills allowed us to get our dream home far cheaper than if we engaged with the seller directly. Miriam takes ownership of the whole sales cycle from a property review, negotiating, liaising with all the relevant parties and then settlement. Her professionalism is second to none and her communication could not be better. Can highly recommend and we will be using her again.
Miriam has just recently helped me buy the perfect home for my next stage of life. This property purchase was achieved while I was in New Zealand and it is not as simple as it may first appear. Miriam communicated effectively from the get go, her expert advice and problem solving skills made a potentially very difficult exercise quite straight forward. This is a true professional at work who functions with integrity and empathy, rare qualities. Miriam is scrupulously honest and saved me a great deal of time and money by not allowing me to pursue properties that were unsuitable.The auction is something I will always remember, her commanding and masterful strategy no doubt won me the property. When it came to paying the deposit I had some difficulty transferring the funds from NZ and again she negotiated me out of a situation where left to my own devices I would probably have lost the saleI cannot say thank you enough, I would use Miriam again without a doubt and will refer anyone who is looking to buy property in Melbourne to her.She is superlative.
Miriam and her team assisted me with the locating and purchase of two properties. As usual, the process was seamless and stress free. Property Mavens is my go-to when it comes to buyers agents, and will continue to be so!
Miriam and her team have been fantastic in finding my perfect home. From the very start Miriam was professional but also very caring and supportive. Her advice was invaluable and every step of the process was communicated to me immediately. Miriam’s timing and negotiation skills, as well as a sound knowledge of the market, meant I was successful in attaining the property I had hoped for. Miriam made the daunting task of buying a property so quick and easy and I will definitely be using her again.Thank you Miriam
I could not fault anything in my dealings with Miriam. As an interstate purchaser flying from one end of Australia to the other to search for and purchase my retirement / investment property was unachievable for me due to full time work and life commitments. I was so impressed with Miriam's professional and current knowledge about my dream location in our zoom meeting, I had no hesitation in engaging her to find my home and was extremely comfortable to choose the full package. I found her exceptionally trustworthy, well connected and reliable. She found my perfect future home for me and her negotiation skills, her industry knowledge and networking has made it a stress free experience for me. She has guided my choices with property investment expertise, while understanding my future goal to live in my dream location later on. I had a tight budget and I have everything that I could have wanted in my property. I know I haven't spent too much or been naive. I would absolutely recommend choosing Miriam to represent your property purchase goals. I am absolutely impressed and a very happy client.
I was feeling a little overwhelmed buying my own property for the first time, but Miriam and her team made the process much easier and more enjoyable.Miriam, Michael and Zoe have great expertise in the industry and provided me with invaluable advice. Communication is key when dealing with buyers agents and the team were great at keeping me informed along the way.Miriam is definitely someone to have on your side at auctions, ensuring that I didn’t get carried away and go over budget.In a difficult market, the right property finally came along and Michael handled the negotiations beautifully. I couldn’t be happier with my new home - the right place at the right price at the right time and I am so grateful to Miriam and Property Mavens for getting me here.
I had the pleasure of working with Miriam, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From our very first phone conversation, Miriam demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism. Her deep knowledge of the real estate market was truly impressive, and it was evident that she genuinely cared about helping her clients find the perfect property. Throughout the entire process, Miriam's communication was outstanding as she was always quick to respond. I highly recommend Miriam to anyone in need of a real estate expert.

Client experiences
Dilara is a wonderful, professional and exceptional Property Manager.She is outstanding and always prompt to my emails and willing to assist us in anyway. As a Renter she makes us feel like we are valued Tenants and we appreciate that.I cannot recommend her high enough!Thank you Dilara for all your time and effort, you are the best!
We recently had the pleasure of working with Kathy at Infolio. As we were based offshore finding a home in a certain area and time frame was going to be challenging. From the beginning, Kathy was totally committed to the process. She clearly knew the designated area and worked tirelessly to find us something that fitted our brief. She understood what we needed and wanted and carefully navigated that when presenting us with possible properties. Kathy has extensive experience and knowledge and this proved invaluable.Throughout the entire process, Kathy was incredibly responsive, and always available on WhatsApp to answer our questions and provide valuable insights. She took the time to understand our needs and preferences and stuck with those rather than deviating from the plan.Despite the process becoming quite time consuming she stuck with it and remained extremely professional and patient to the end. She negotiated the deal for us and covered all the necessary steps going forward. She managed to make a stressful process into a seamless one.We could not have had a better person on the job!!
I’ve worked with Tristan over several years in my role as an estate agent. Personable, pleasant, clear with his brief, and thorough with his research. We know the quality of properties Tristan secures for his buyers and often gets first look at our off market properties. Always a pleasure to work with, and mutually respectful, whilst we want the best result & terms for our clients, Tristan wants the best for his. We look forward to working with you on the next one!
Lauren and Steph at Infolio did an incredible job for us. From the minute we sat down and described what we were after, I was impressed by their professionalism, expertise and commitment. They listened, pivoted seamlessly, and went above and beyond at every step. Thank you!
We have been renting a beautiful property through Infolio since 2019 and have had an exceptional experience with the various managers and support staff we've interacted with over the years: Tayla, Teneal, Gemmalou, and more recently, Dilara. They have always assisted us promptly and professionally throughout our tenancy. Gemmalou is a stellar property management assistant. Dilara has been a wonderful manager, making us feel valued and cherished as tenants, which is rare in today's 'landlord-driven' market. Highly recommend!
I cannot recommend Tristan and Lauren highly enough. I was very confusing in my brief to them and Tristan was able to read between the lines and come back to me with multiple properties that were great options. He also kept his eye on other ones in the background, giving me updates as prices changed. He was able to think beyond the next few years and help me choose a property that my family would grow into, something I had not considered. The team make what could be a really overwhelming experience, a positive one.
I worked directly with Lauren Staley and Toby Primrose and had a first class experience. From day 1 of the search, Infolio took the time to genuinely understand what I was looking for and why this was what I wanted. The team completed a thorough review of opportunities in target suburbs, actively leveraged their network, provided regular progress updates, completed the process within 8 weeks, and negotiated their cost off the final price. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with them again.
Finding the right tenant for a rental property can be daunting, but Dilara made the whole process an absolute breeze. Her excellent communication, efficiency and overall professionalism delivered a great result in a very short time. Five stars!
Our sincere thanks to Tristan & Ellen for the advice, guidance and management of the sale of our property in Bentleigh.Ellen was always quick to address any needs in the management of the refurbishment works.Tristan was an excellent conduit between us and the estate agent representatives. His positive attitude was a very calming influence on auction day.Their assistance enabled the property to be presented at its very best and achieve an excellent auction result.
My partner and I recently moved out of a beautiful property that Infolio managed after living there for 3.5 years. Unfortunately our dealings with Dilara were very unpleasant. When the household mould issue was brought to her attention this year (after 3 years of the same problem), we were met with judgement and blame. We were informed by Dilara that it was due to our clothes dryer (which we have never owned) and because we weren’t ventilating the house adequately (we opened windows and doors everyday to ventilate). Dilara advised us to open a window, send a photo of our laundry to “prove” that we didn’t have a dryer, and to purchase a $500 dehumidifier for a problem that had everything to do with the house structure rather than our own actions.Most recently, when attempting to have our bond returned, we were informed that money would be deducted for a broken oven handle (which we brought to their attention on multiple occasions since 2021). After multiple ignored emails and calls, I finally got through to Dilara and was met with rudeness and no explanation as to why there had been no contact for the last 2 weeks while we were patiently waiting for our money back. We ended up needing to involve VCAT- not because there was any issues with the condition of the house but because Dilara did not complete our bond return within 14 days of vacating the property.My redeeming star is credit to the polite reception staff that I have spoken to (when someone is available to answer the phone). Unfortunately Dilara has soured our entire experience of this company, even though our first property managers were lovely and competent.
As a company that handles rentals, absolutely disgusting. They have been my property manager for about 15 months and I still have items outstanding from day dot.I have mouldy carpet from an issue 1st reported about 3 months ago and I can not get a response from PM Dion Fowler or more recently head office.Dion will not answer calls or reply to texts or emails and head office doesn’t have anyone that takes calls. It’s always an answering machine that states that someone will be in contact shortly, but they have never returned a call.Maybe I have been blessed with great property managers in the past that have always dealt with issues in a timely manner; but do not expect this from Infolio.They appear to have taken the supermarket motto of self service.I actually sit here writing this dumbfounded on what I have encountered.Have all the photos, videos and trail of calls, texts and emails to prove it.I seriously just don’t understand.DO NOT RENT THROUGH THESE GUYS. ESPECIALLY DION FOWLER.
I've been with Infolio for years. They assisted in the buying of property which was an effortless process. Moving forward 10+years later they remain my property managers. Recently I had a change of tenants, the process was smooth, I was informed completely along the way and only took days. Thanks Kat, Lauren and the team - you're ace!
We engaged Infolio to buy our dream Bayside home. Lauren and Steph were highly engaging and professional throughout the process and provided honest and valuable feedback to help us decide on the right home. When it came time to negotiate Lauren was incredible and we were delighted with the deal that was secured. Highly valuable and would recommend Infolio to others.
We were recommended to Infolio and engaged them to help us secure a new family home, and we are very pleased we did. Tristan and Lauren were both outstanding at communicating information and keeping our expectations realistic through the process. The time and effort that Tristan put into the surfacing and evaluating of opportunities was worth the investment and ultimately led us to a property that we know will suit our family for many years to come. We know that we would not have secured the property we did without their service and support so thank you to the whole team!

A big thanks to Antony Bucello who supported and guided me in purchasing my new home. Antony kept me fully updated on his progress of searches for my appropriate home and listened to my needs and offered his advice throughout this period. Auction day showed how good a negotiator Antony is and I very much appreciate all his help and true professionalism. I have no hesitation of using Antony's services again, if I need to purchase another property in the future.
Well firstly my husband and I are still feeling super happy that we picked up the phone that day and called National property buyers!Having never attended an auction before we were thinking maybe we need someone to bid for us...Initially we spoke with Antony who explained how things work and he teed us up to work with Robert Di Vita.After the first couple of conversations we had with Rob we felt very at ease and confident in the advice he gave us. Rob has many years of experience in the Property Advocacy industry and it really showed in his guidance in “attacking” this auction for us.On auction day we had the usual feelings of excitement and nervousness (all mixed together) but the excitement soon took over as he showed his strength in bidding and secured the property at auction for us!Looking back now we will still be at square one if we hadn't engaged with National property buyers, they are absolute pros at what they do and If we were to buy another property in future we would hands down use their service!Thank you Rob for securing our very first auction and our very first home it was a brilliant experience!We really appreciate the work Rob did for us and would highly recommend National property buyers to anyone who wants to make the whole house buying experience 100% easier for themselves!The Best!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly Recommend!My wife and I have had the pleasure of working with Robert Di Vita from National Property Buyers, and we cannot recommend him highly enough. This is our second dealing with him and I am confident there will be several more in the horizon. Robert is incredibly meticulous in his approach, searching for the best property that fits your specific criteria—whether it's for owner occupation, commercial purposes, or knockdown and rebuild projects. He is thorough in understanding your needs and works tirelessly to ensure the properties he presents align with your budget and objectives.What truly sets Robert apart is his ability to handle all the dealings between the vendor and the client, going above and beyond to make the entire process seamless. As a client, I feel privileged knowing that Robert is taking care of every detail, allowing me to focus on other priorities.His communication and negotiation skills are top-notch, particularly when liaising with vendor agents. Robert has a knack for working with the right people and always ensures the best outcome for his clients. His ability to negotiate favorable terms while keeping all parties aligned speaks volumes about his experience and expertise in the industry.If you're looking for a property expert who genuinely cares about your needs and goes the extra mile, Robert is the person to go to. We couldn't be happier with his service and highly recommend him to anyone in the market for a property!
Antony from National Property Buyers has been fantastic in helping us with our first investment property purchase. Throughout the process Anthony has impressed us with his professionalism, transparency, regular checkins and valuable insights into the shortlisted properties, the areas and clear statistics. He really did all the hard yards for us, thanks so much Antony !
Antony has been amazing to work with. He is patient and helpful and was always looking after our best interests. He was alway happy to answer our questions and generously made time for us. We are looking forward to watching this investment property perform and will engage Antony again in the future for our next property purchase. Thanks Antony!
After months of trying to find and buy a commercial property on our own we engaged NPB to help us.Within 1 month we were signing the dotted line on our ideal commercial property.Thank you to Rob who thoroughly reviewed and assessed each property to make sure it not only meet, but exceeded our financial goals.Rob did an excellent job negotiating for the property and secured it for less than we were willing to spend.We can't recommend NPB and Rob enough when looking for a commercial property.
I had the pleasure of working with Antony, my buyer agent, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience. Antony stood out for his exceptional listening skills, providing valuable professional comments that guided us throughout the process. His patience and responsibility were remarkable, addressing all our concerns and ensuring we felt supported. Antony's efficiency was outstanding, handling everything promptly and efficiently.I highly recommend Antony, particularly for overseas buyers who can't physically inspect properties. His attention to detail and ability to cater to remote clients make him a top choice in the real estate industry. Working with Antony was an absolute pleasure, and I couldn't be happier with his services.
It was the best decision engaging with National Property Buyers to help us secure our new home. We initially engaged with Rob and Antony to bid at auction for us, but eventually felt that we could use some professional help in doing the full search. Rob was very patient and intuitive with what we were after and took a load out of our hectic schedules by doing inspections and shortlisted properties for us. The experience and knowledge that Rob had was invaluable for us as first home buyers and wouldn’t have been able to secure our new home at the right price had it not been the support we had from him. Friendly and responsive and super easy to deal with. We would highly recommend this service for sure.
National Property Buyers are super helpful and they are very profession and organized. They give us better ideas about property value by providing history datas and comparision of the surrunding properties, also saving a lot of time for us to communicate with the sellers' agents. Robert is amazing to work with and very attentive & prompt to all our requests and needs. Fully recommand this company to all buyers!
Antony from NPB has been absolutely incredible. I am confident that I purchased my property for better than the right price, due to him. He made sure I was aware of every step and was there any time I had any questions. I will be (and have already been) recommending his services to any friends I have wanting to buy/find/settle a place to call their own.
We contacted Antony after reading reviews others had left for him and were more than satisfied with the service he provided. He made us feel very comfortable through what is a very daunting process and with Antony, we always felt as though we had someone in our corner.From our initial meeting, Antony’s friendliness, passion, professionalism and knowledge of the market was very clear. He showed a keen interest in us, our journey and what we were looking for in a home. All this made our decision to use his services a very easy one.We were first home buyers looking to move to Melbourne and felt out of our depth. Antony was able to provide the local knowledge we were missing and guide us through the whole process, using his industry contacts to arrange private opens, gain valuable market insights and steer us along the right path with negotiations, contracts and everything that comes with buying a home.His passion never waned and we were surprised by the quality of service and attention he gave us. He was reachable around the clock, responded very quickly to any queries and provided us with updates as soon as they crossed his desk.I cannot recommend Antony and National Property Buyers highly enough.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Rob Di Vita who advised me on the acquisition of a new home in Glenroy. Rob has in-depth knowledge of the overall Melbourne real estate market. He impressed me with his insights on market dynamics and negotiation strategies. Beyond his expertise, Rob was incredibly approachable and maintained open communication throughout.I cannot recommend Rob highly enough! His professionalism made the entire experience smooth. If you're looking for an exceptional buyer agent who truly cares, look no further than Rob.
I cannot recommend National Property Buyers and Antony Bucello enough for anyone looking for a buyers agent. We contacted Antony when we were looking for a property near Melbourne and after due diligence and research, we chose to have National Property Buyers.From the very first contact Antony had impressed us with his knowledge, clarity in processes and professionalism. We are picky about the suburbs and properties that we were looking at, and the process and guidance really helped us. We started with an initial chat, based on which our profile was set-up in their database and a few properties were listed based on our parameters. We were able to give feedback on each, which was really helpful in being able to further refine our expectations as well as give Antony further feedback about our preference. Based on that, Antony was able to send us property details when a great buy came up. Antony was really prompt in sharing with us details about why it would be a good property with full details and research backing up his recommendation. We really appreciated the guidance, and at the same time we didn't feel obligated to go for a property if we didn't feel it was good.In less than 3 months (including Dec break), we bought our investment property through an auction, where Antony represented us. Not only is it a property that we really like, but we also got it for a good price. Antony was instrumental in the auction; without him we would've probably been caught up in an emotional bidding frenzy. It truly was a good partnership and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a buyer agent in VIC
This is the second time we have engaged Rob from National Property Buyers and once again we could not have been happier with the service he provided. The first time we engaged him was as a buyers advocate where with Rob’s assistance we purchased our new house within 3 days of the first open.On this occasion we engaged Rob as a vendors advocate to sell our previous home that we had lived in for 17 years. Rob provided assistance and advice on every aspect of the sale from engaging a realestate agent to home improvements and managed to make an incredibly daunting process so much easier. As a result our house sold at auction and we were delighted with the result. We would not hesitate recommending Rob as both a buyer and vendor advocate.

Client experiences
Thanks Matt!! We chose Matt from Abode Advocacy to help us sell our house in Vermont. He had helped us buy and sell two previous homes over the last 15 years.As we knew he was reliable and trustworthy he was the obvious choice to help with our next sale. Although the auction didn’t result in a sale on the day, Matt and the team work tirelessly to get our house sold over the next two weeks.48 hours later he managed to negotiate the purchase of an off market property for us as well. So excited for our next adventure and extremely happy with the service Matt provided us again.
I purchased from overseas and it was so easy. The experience was excellent!! Thanks to the team.
We were recently selected by Matt from Abode Advocacy Group to help with the sale of his clients property at 72 Valley Drive, Rye. Matt and the team at Abode were a pleasure to deal with.We worked well as a team to ensure a great result for our client. Together we where able to sell Valley Drive above the asking price a week after the Auction. We highly recommend Matt if you're looking for a Buyers/Sales Advocate.
I believe it’s a universal understanding that selling a home is up there with the top lifetime stressors.My husband and I engaged Matthew to be our advocate for the sale of our home. Can’t underestimate the value of engaging an advocate, when dealing with agents and the pressure experienced throughout the journey. Matthew supported, advocated and firmly guided us all the way. Communication from Matthew was continuous and he provided reassurance when we felt the most unsure.Many, many thanks to Matthew from Abode Advocacy Group.Worth noting - we also had a great outcome with the sale of our home.
Matt and his extensive team at Abode simply deliver as promised, on time, in full. Our recent experience was hassle-free, great value and seemingly simple for them- however I suspect it was quite a bit of hard work, smart solutions and some scrambling behind the scenes, but we’d never know, he just delivered the results without the drama.
We were very happy with Matt and his team. Its good to have a person that worked in the industry having those years of experience and an indepth knowledge of the ins and outs. We are very happy with our result and could not have had a better outcome.
Matt and the Abode team made our home-buying experience a breeze! From the moment we decided to work with Matt to the purchase of our first home at auction, it took less than a week! Matt was incredibly proactive, attending open inspections, speaking with real estate agents, organising a building and pest inspection, and preparing a property report in just a couple of days.His strategy and approach at the auction were spot-on, and we walked away with the house of our dreams at our very first auction! We couldn't have done it without Matt. If you're considering a buyer's agent, Matt is your man! Matt and the Abode team saved us so much time and potential heartache in missing out on properties.Thank you so much, Matt!
Matt and the team were professional and supportive through every step of the buying process. I would highly recommend this service when looking to buy a property.
I have dealt with Abode Advocacy Group and Matt Scafidi, who has helped me with selling 15 homes as well as a recent land purchase in both capacity of agent and most recently advocate, over the past 15+ years.Their are many reasons I keep circling back to Matt and his team; he’s honest, direct, transparent, trustworthy and has always delivered. On a personal level - he’s a great guy and I can truly say I’ve appreciated all the help he has provided to myself over the years. Great operator, communicator and he has a great business.I would not hesitate to recommend him personally and the advocacy services he provides for your real estate requirements.Michael Rose.
YOU MUST USE ABODE ADVOCACY GROUP!If you are reading this you are either looking for a Buyers Agent and/or have never heard of them. Just like I did.This is a long review but you must read it.Firstly this is the first review I have ever written for anything. But Abode Advocacy Group is worth every word.If you are like me you’ve been spending weeks and months searching through realestate.com.au searching for a hidden gem that’s worth it’s listed price and not going to auction.Upon reflection that is a useless strategy. In fact these days it is impossible to buy a property without a Buyers Agent.And you would be mad to not use Abode Advocacy Group and Matt.I had never heard of a Buyers Agent so was quite skeptical and untrusting. But from the first meeting with Matt I was convinced.Matt leads an amazing small team in Tess and Victoria. Because of this you get personalised, dedicated attention lead by Matt who is hands on through every step. They have proven success, experience, and importantly market knowledge and networks.Matt is as honest, transparent, and approachable as anyone you could ever deal with. He showed genuine care and investment towards our family journey to finding a property.Because of Abodes communication and online processes you can simply sit back and allow them to do all the ground work.And like me you’ll also wonder or second guess whether the fees are worth it. For the time, stress, and money Matt will save you don’t even hesitate.Stop wasting your time on realestate.com.au and reading more reviews. Contact Matt today, from the minute you sit with him you’ll be convinced. Prove me wrong.
Sincere thanks Matt to you and your team at ABODE ADVOCACY GROUP for all your help during what was a stressful time selling our sisters home . Your expertise in the field made it easy for us as you explained what needed to be done but you were never pushy. We certainly would not have got the results we did if we had gone alone. We were updated constantly on progress, if we had queries they were answered in a timely manner. We would certainly recommend ABODE to anyone selling their home. Thank you. Kate Kohne
ABODE were excellent in guiding us through a recent property sale in Camberwell. Their Team lead by Matt Scafidi were professional and realistic in their approach with strong relationships with legal and agency providers. ABODE provided us will a complete property package including pre-sale preparation through to conducting a successful auction. We would absolutely recommendthem. John & Marg.
We recently worked with Matt from Abode and found he and his team to very efficient and easy to work with. The sale process went flawlessly for all parties involved. Hope to work with him again in the near future.
We speak really highly of Matt & Abode Advocacy Group. We collaborated together on a sale in Essendon and at all times he was extremely professional, shared an array of experience and knowledge and acted as a solid extra set of hands - all the while as a leader and not as a competitor.We will always recommend this firm for those that require their services - both for Vendor Advocacy & Buyer Advocacy.At all times he treated our entire team with the same respect and passion. Matt’s genuine nature is a rare find in this industry.Huge amount of experience and what a great business he has grown from his sensational reputation.We will always watch this firm grow, expand and continue to succeed as leaders in this space & we sincerely look forward to future work together.From the entire team at NICOLE GERVASI PROPERTY GROUP
Matt and Dion have helped me sell more than one property and each journey has it's own story. The most recent one was difficult but the guys dug in and worked through to an outcome that suited everyone. Their service is responsive and efficient and always focused on the optimum outcome for their client. Their value is always evident in the result and my peace of mind.
I can't thank Matt and his team enough. I used to live in Japan and Korea where home buyers are treated like 'customers'. Not the case down under due to chronic supply shortage - I was more like a job applicant. Every seemingly decent property had multiple parties competing. Seller's agents often wouldn't even return my calls when the property seems very popular. They take full advantage of the upper hand. I was once encouraged to submit an offer without any condition for building inspection, only to find out the property had 3 major defects. Matt negotiated with them to squeeze in an inspection and saved me a fortune and years of headache. He seems to know when someone is telling the truth or just working very hard(maybe a bit too hard) for the seller. I didn't have to deal with any sales tactics or myriads of unnecessary information that doesn't shed any light but only cause confusion as Matt's team has neatly kept it out of the whole process. I will recommend Abode Advocacy to anyone I care about.
We had a fantastic purchase experience with Matt and Dion.Their assistance in our recent property purchase in rural Victoria was invaluable. The entire process was incredibly smooth, and their clear and prompt communication lines made everything seamless. Their expertise and due diligence truly set them apart, and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. Thanks, Matt and Dion, for your outstanding support!
After working with multiple Vendor advocates through out my career, I have to say Matt, Dion and the team are up there with the absolute best in the industry. Not only did Matt call a terrific auction, at all stages they made sure their client was informed. The experience of the team at Abode definitely attributed to making sure there client got the best price.Would definitely recommend them to any one that needs some extra help buying or selling.
After 18 months+ searching for our family home with 2 kids under 2 in tow and being under bidder multiple times, we reached out to Matt and Dion for help. I can't thank them enough for their help in securing our abode. Despite engaging them close to the Christmas period they still worked throughout on our brief and in 51 days got us the house for us for the price we were after. Their ability to open up the market was a game changer and our abode was purchased off market. Their guidance and delivery throughout the negotiation process was brilliant. Although we haven't settled yet, we have significant comfort in the due diligence Abode Advocacy Group performed and having Matt and Dion in our corner 🙂

Client experiences
Janet was very helpful and supportive during what could have been a difficult process. Her efforts are very much appreciated.
Janet was tireless in her efforts to successfully find and purchase a property for me. Being located in Europe, I then relied on her totally to manage the renovation of the property, offering excellent advice on what should be done, and keeping the tradepeople to schedule. Once complete, the team at Buyer Solutions were fantastic in maintaining and managing the rental aspects. It was an easy and practical experience working with Janet and the team. I knew that I never had to worry about my place, that it was in good hands at all times.
We we're tenants with Buyer Solutions and Janet was incredibly helpful. Always very attentive and responsive and I would recommend Buyer Solutions to anyone looking to buy, sell, invest and lease.
Buyers' advocate extraordinaire!Conscientious & thorough. Janet thought of everything that needed to be investigated to ensure the integrity of the house and neighbours' plans that would have affected land value.Friendly and helpful. Janet has such a warm and professional approach.Professional. Janet has years of experience and this is reflected in the connections and knowledge she uses to represent her clients. We saw first hand that she is honest and honourable which has gained her an respected and liked reputation amongst real estate agents.Timely & Active. We are absolutely positive that we would have missed out on the house we purchased without Janet's help!Early offers before the auction seem to be so common these days and if you're not connected and fast they're sold before you realise! This was the case for us but Janet was on the ball with a warning for us and we were able to counter offer to win the deal.Choose Janet from Buyer Solutions. We highly recommend Janet's services whether buying or selling for great advice and an honest approach.
I was a tenant renting in South yarra through Janet at Buyer solutions for a number of years. Both Janet and the other property managers were responsive and attentive, making it a good and very easy experience. I would recommend them to other prospective tenants.
Janet Spencer is an attentive and caring property manager, had a great experience renting through Buyer Solutions. Thank you Janet!
Great service from Janet and the team who were always a pleasure to deal with. Would highly reccommend!
We bought using Janet from Buyer Solutions services and found them knowledgeable, responsive and good communicators. Our property has been easy to rent with a great long term tenant. Buyer Solutions managed our investment and always kept us informed and the property well maintained. Great service!
Janet Spencer at Buyer Solutions helped us to buy our family home in Melbourne as well as a duplex investment property in South Yarra. We recently sold the investment property after 18 years. It was a great investment and Janet was involved with the purchase and the sale, with great effect. I would recommend Janet if you are buying or selling!
We recently bought a house with a massive amount of help from Buyer Solutions. As first home buyers, the service was amazing and we could not have done it without them! Massive thank you to Janet specifically who responded instantly and worked non-stop to help us. She went to inspections while we were working and send detailed reports including photos, information on recent renovations, and up and coming changed to the neighbourhood. We also received advice on smarter investment opportunities that helped us make decisions.Thanks again!
We have had the pleasure of engaging Janet Spencer from Buyer Solutions for our investment purchase and we weren’t disappointed. This was our first time engaging a buyer’s advocate so we did not know what to expect and was a bit skeptical about the whole process. Within the first week of dealing with Janet, we knew we were in good hands. Janet was professional, knowledgeable and had great work ethic. Her understanding of the market is excellent. She had our best interests at heart. I am confident that my property will perform well and deliver the capital growth expected by us. Highly recommend Janet and her team.

I initially discovered Mecca Property Group through a friend of mine. We were exploring the possibility of purchasing an investment property and browsing through different buyers' agent. After our first session with Abdullah, Ella, and the team at MPG, I was blown away by their professionalism, attention to detail, and care for us as customers. They understand the customer experience to the tee and did a fantastic job in establishing confidence and trust in their expertise. Importantly, their approach to property investment through statistics and market research is second to none. They know all the right numbers, trends, and indicators to identify the right location and property for my goals.If you need a team that you can consistently rely on, I strongly believe there's no better team than MPG. Even though I had a busy work schedule, Abdullah and Ella were always happy to work around the clock (even late nights) to make ends meet, and with a smile on their face every time. They took care of all my concerns and handled the end-to-end process very smoothly. I'm very happy and grateful for their hard work and efforts, and definitely look forward to expanding my portfolio with them in the future.

They were extremely thorough and up-to-date with their market knowledge. Most importantly they were very patient, they provided us with a variety of choices and gave us the time and opportunity to make decisions. They were also extremely calm and patient throught the whole negotiation process once we chose a property.We were able to save time and money as they helped us in narrowing down good investment properties which suit us the best and offer great value and benefits. The whole process was smooth and the turn around time was quick.I highly recommend Abdullah, Ella and their team and look forward to working with them again in the future!
Being a first home buyer, I had no clue about where to start with purchasing an investment property. Doing my own online research was overwhelming, but when I reached out to Ella, she helped me pinpoint what I want to achieve and exactly how to do it. There were some bumps along the road in other aspects, but Ella’s support was a constant and made things much easier for me. Abdullah was also just as supportive and provided me with the confidence I needed to purchase a property. The team really know what they’re doing and were able to provide me with stats and consistent updates about the market. They are both incredibly patient and really help you make an informed decision without any pressure. I couldn’t have purchased my first home without their support, and couldn’t be happier with the service they provided. Highly recommend!
