YOUR QUESTIONS – ANSWERED HONESTLY
You’ve got questions, we’ve got honest answers. These FAQs cut through the fluff and tackle what really matters when buying property with a North Shore or Northern Beaches Buyers Agent.
Why should I pay a buyer’s agent when listings are online for free?
Sure, property portals are free, but they show only part of the picture. Over 25% of Sydney sales happen off-market – homes you’ll never see on public listings. And the Northern Beaches market is fiercely competitive: 38% of local properties sold above their asking price last year .
A good buyer’s agent gives you an edge: access to hidden listings, expert pricing advice, and tough negotiation on your behalf. They’ll also vet properties thoroughly. Many buyers end up regretting overpaying or missing issues on their own. An experienced agent helps you avoid those expensive mistakes.
Isn’t auction bidding just about waving your hand at the right time?
At auctions on the Northern Beaches or North Shore, timing is just one piece of the puzzle. Bidding successfully is a strategic art – reading the crowd, setting the pace, and knowing when to hold back.
Remember, auction price guides can be wildly low: 65% of Sydney houses at auction sell for more than 10% above the quoted price . Without a strategy, buyers get caught in a frenzy – almost half of first-home buyers blew their budget in 2025 . A professional buyer’s agent brings discipline and insight to auction day, so you’re bidding smart, not just waving a paddle.
Do you ever tell a client not to buy a property?
Absolutely. We’re in the business of getting you the right property – and sometimes that means saying “walk away.” For instance, if a building inspection reveals major issues (not uncommon in some older Northern Beaches homes) or the price is above fair value, we’ll pull the plug.
A good buyer’s agent isn’t afraid to lose a deal to save the client from a bad one. Consider that nearly one-third of Aussie homeowners now admit they paid too much. And 61% of buyers only discovered property problems after moving in. We’d rather tell you “don’t buy” than let you become part of those statistics.
What if I want help selling my current place first?
Your sale is half of the equation, and we’ve got you covered. While our core service is buying, we frequently assist clients with selling their existing home through our trusted network. Think of us as your advocate: we’ll recommend top local selling agents (Northern Beaches and North Shore have some standouts) and help you negotiate a reasonable fee.
What makes your Full Service any different from others?
We do everything a “full service” buyer’s agent should – and then some. The difference? We actually deliver. Many agencies advertise full service but leave you doing half the legwork. Our team handles it all: from pinpointing off-market gems to negotiating every dollar and managing due diligence through settlement. And we do it with no fluff or hidden agendas.
We focus on Sydney’s Northern Beaches and North Shore, so our local network is second to none. Some buyer’s agencies boast massive off-market reach – one claims it has sourced over 3,000 off-market properties for clients. With us, you get that level of exclusive access plus relentless advocacy for your goals.
Is hiring a buyer’s agent really worth the investment for off-market properties?
Honestly? If you’re short on time or chasing something rare, absolutely. A buyer’s agent isn’t just another cost—they’re your direct line to quiet, unlisted off-market opportunities. They spend their days networking and proactively sourcing off-market properties that match your criteria.
Yes, their expertise has a price, but if you’re after something specific or exclusive, it’s usually worth every dollar. Think of it this way: paying for a buyer’s agent is buying yourself access and options you’d otherwise never see.
