  • Immediate Insight: We provide actionable market feedback and honest "counter-intelligence" regarding price and availability from the first interaction.

  • Strategic Timing: Whether you intend to transact next week or next year, early engagement is the key to securing the best off-market outcome.

Uncompromising Transparency

ANSWERING THE HARD QUESTIONS BEFORE WE EVEN SPEAK

L
K

How is your fee structure determined? Are there hidden costs?

Fixed pricing, agreed in advance. Unlike percentage-based models that incentivise agents to make you pay more, our fees are fixed from day one. There are no sales games and no hidden extras—just total transparency so you can budget with certainty.

L
K

Will my search be managed by you or a junior agent?

You work directly with the Principals. We do not hand off briefs to junior assistants. You get direct access to Sarah and Mike, benefiting from decades of advisory, valuation, and property law experience on every single phone call.

L
K

Do you genuinely have access to off-market properties?

Yes. We open doors that are never advertised. We leverage deep local networks to surface "silent" listings and pre-market opportunities before the public sees them. We filter the noise and only present you with the top 1% of stock that matches your specific brief.

L
K

Do you accept referral fees from selling agents?

Never. We act 100% for the buyer. We accept no seller commissions, no kickbacks, and no referral fees. Our advice is frank, unbiased, and uncompromised. If a property has issues, we will tell you to walk away, ensuring your interests are the only ones protected.

L
K

What happens if we don't find a property immediately?

We keep searching until it is right. We hold a 100% client success rate because we prioritise certainty over speed. There is no time limit and no pressure to settle. We continue the search until we secure the perfect outcome.

L
K

What can I expect from the due diligence process?

Straight talk and zero pressure. Our 5-star reputation is built on meticulous due diligence and honesty. We provide forensic analysis on value and quality, bringing the same level of care to your search as we would our own.

Sarah and Mike are the finest buyers agents we have come across in Sydney. From the very outset they established themselves as our trusted advisors for our property search. Their insights were invaluable and they truly balances their advice across the financial considerations (capital growth, improvement upside etc) with the more immeasurable considerations (proximity to schools, local amenities etc). For our entire search we never felt pressured or out of control of the process - Sarah and Mike were with us 100% of the way. And when it came down to deal execution once we had found our ideal property, both Sarah and Mike leaped into action to help us to complete all due diligence needed and secure the property within our target budget. We never once felt pressured to go higher unnecessarily and both of them were a phone call away at any stage. It has been a great experience. We have found our dream home and Sarah and Mike will be considered lifelong friends. Thank you both - we will always highly recommend your services to anybody looking for an edge in Sydney's highly competitive property market.

Sarah and Mike are an absolute delight to work with. They helped me find my first home on the upper north shore recently, and kept me informed and supported every step of the way through the process from finding the property, to getting it insured after completion. I am currently working in the UK so they were my main eyes and ears in Sydney. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

We had been searching for a long time to find the right waterfront home in Palm Beach / Whale Beach, and found it very difficult to make a decision. Choosing Sarah Kaye & Co. as our Northern Beaches buyers agent was the best decision for our family. We already own a property on the North Shore, and we selected them because they are a leading buyers agent across both the North Shore and Northern Beaches. Their strong experience helping North Shore owners secure properties on the Northern Beaches made the whole transition seamless, and they truly understood the journey and the type of property and lifestyle we were looking for. The Sarah Kaye & Co. team were patient, professional and very knowledgeable throughout the process. Sarah, Mike and the wider team found us a stunning waterfront property on the Whale Beach cliffs with magnificent water views. What impressed us most was their strategic advice — they looked not only at the home for today but also for the future, identifying strong development potential based on neighbouring approved builds closer to the cliff line, which is very rare in this area. They acted very quickly when the property became available, communicated directly with the agent, negotiated strongly against other interested buyers and successfully secured the property for us. We are extremely happy and very grateful for their guidance and support. If you are looking for a Northern Beaches buyers agent or a Palm Beach buyers agent, we highly recommend the Sarah Kaye & Co. team.

I have worked with quite a few agents, but Sarah Kaye & Co are among the very few who consistently request technical pool inspections before their clients’ make a purchase decision. They leave nothing to chance. Their attention to detail and commitment to protecting their clients' interests are impressive, to say the leaset. It’s always a pleasure working with such thorough professionals and I cannot recommend Sarah Kaye highly enough!

What impresses me about Sarah Kaye & Co is their foresight. They regularly bring us in to scope and cost renovations before they even secure the property, ensuring their clients know exactly what they are getting into. They are strategic, realistic, and incredibly professional. It’s great to work with advisors who understand the construction side of property value

I look after Sarah and Mike’s personal garden as well as many of their clients' gardens. They are genuine, down-to-earth people, but they have very high professional standards. They treat their suppliers with respect and always look for the best outcome for their clients. It’s a partnership built on trust and reliability.

In the boutique property market, we value partners who truly understand quality. Having dealt with Sarah and Mike professionally, it is clear they understand exactly what makes a property 'investment grade' and attractive to quality buyers and tenants. They don't just look for a transaction; they focus on the long-term asset value. Sarah Kaye & Co operates with a level of due diligence and integrity that is rare in the industry

We couldn’t recommend Sarah and Mike highly enough. From start to finish, they were fantastic, always responsive, proactive, and incredibly supportive, even after our property had already settled. When we ran into issues with the leasing agent, Sarah and Mike stepped in and helped us negotiate smoothly, which took a huge weight off our shoulders. It genuinely felt like having a trusted friend on our side throughout the entire process. Thank you, Sarah and Mike for going above and beyond! Highly recommend Sarah Kaye to anyone looking for a reliable and genuinely caring buyer’s agent 🙂

We recently worked with Sarah and Mike to buy a property on the Northern Beaches for our eventual return to Sydney and it was an excellent experience. Currently based in the UK, we worked with them remotely and it was seamless. They were organised, professional and also pushed us on what we said we wanted to getting clear on what we really wanted. We ended up getting a property that ticked all the boxes - couldn't be happier. And would recommend to others!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Mike and Sarah as the buyers' agents on a transaction, and I can’t speak highly enough of their professionalism throughout the process. They were punctual, proactive, and always easy to communicate with. What really stood out was their willingness to go the extra mile — often working after hours to ensure everything stayed on track for their clients. They handled negotiations with integrity and maintained a smooth, cooperative dynamic from start to finish. An absolute pleasure to deal with, and I look forward to working with them again in future transactions.

As an agent, dealing with Sarah and Mike was great. They were responsive and persistent with their communication which is everything you can ask for when dealing with a buyers agent. They followed through on their word and ultimately purchased the property for their client. If you are struggling to buy, it’s definitely worth speaking the team!

Working with Sarah and Mike from Sarah Kaye Buyers Agents was an absolutely outstanding experience, and we couldn't be happier with our new home. Their biggest strength, and what truly sets them apart, is their ability to look beyond the standard property checklist. They took the time to genuinely understand us - our lifestyle, our personalities, and what we do on weekdays and weekends. This meant they weren't just finding a house that fit our specs on paper; they were finding a home that was the right fit for us. From the very beginning, we were impressed by their approach. Sarah and Mike provided unfiltered, practical, and to-the-point advice without any of the usual sales fluff. They are incredibly detail-oriented, organized, and always responsive, which made the entire process feel calm, controlled, and well-managed. Their professionalism and dedication were truly put to the test when they successfully negotiated to secure our home for us in a pre-auction deal, all while handling a personal emergency. It was a clear demonstration of their commitment to their clients. If you're looking for a trusted advisor who will genuinely look after your best interests, we can't recommend Sarah and Mike enough. They are fabulous people who made a potentially stressful process feel seamless.

I engaged Sarah Kaye & Co. at very short notice, just days before an auction for a truly incredible beachfront property in Freshwater. Sarah and the team took the brief, got across everything quickly, and represented me brilliantly on the day. I was very impressed that Sarah was genuinely interested in making sure the property was right for me and took the time to get to know me and understand my requirements as well as researching the property in a very short period of time. Thanks to her and Mike, we secured the property at auction — and I couldn’t be happier. It’s an amazing home, and I’m absolutely over the moon with the result. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sarah Kaye & Co. to anyone looking for a trusted and professional Northern Beaches buyers agent.

I've known Sarah for a couple of years now, both personally and professionally, and I've got a huge amount of respect for the way she operates the Sarah Kaye & Co Buyers Agency. She really knows her stuff - especially when it comes to the Northern Beaches property market. I've seen her present to groups and clients, and she does it with real confidence, professionalism, and a clear passion for helping people find the right property. Her offer in the market is compelling, and it's clear that she genuinely cares about achieving great outcomes for her clients. On top of all that, she's just a lovely person - easy to deal with, honest, and someone you can trust. I wouldn't hesitate to refer Sarah to any of my clients looking to buy. You're in good hands with Sarah and her team.

We had an amazing experience working with Sarah as our buyer’s agent. From the start, she was incredibly thorough, asking the right questions and taking the time to really understand what we were looking for. We genuinely felt she “got” us. On the Northern Beaches, I don’t think we would’ve had a chance without her. Around 70% of the properties we saw came through her network. What stood out was that we never felt pushed into anything. Sarah was patient, quick to act, and genuinely wanted us to find the right place. Her team of builders, inspectors, and conveyancers were fantastic: reliable, professional, and people we felt we could trust. She always delivered on her word. In the end, we bought in inner Manly, which we thought was out of reach. Can’t recommend Sarah highly enough.

We began working with Sarah and her wonderful team just over a month ago to find a perfect home for our family. Initially, we explored properties that, looking back, fitted our brief, didn’t quite feel like the right fit — they didn’t truly reflect what makes us happy. With Sarah’s guidance, we were able to take a fresh look at what truly mattered, and she ultimately found us a property that was completely different from what we thought we wanted — a beautiful inner-village apartment in Manly. Sarah and her team were an absolute pleasure to work with — professional, insightful, and genuinely caring. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sarah Kaye & Co. to anyone looking for a trusted Northern Beaches Buyers Agent.
