Years combined experience
You do the hunting. We get you the keys.
You have done the heavy lifting and found the property you want. But when it is time to talk price, the leverage shifts to the vendor’s agent. We step into your corner to establish true market value, run the due diligence and run the negotiation.
How we take it over the finish line
True-value assessment and street intelligence
Before you put a dollar on the table, we tell you what the property is actually worth. We pull recent and off-market sales, weigh the street and the block, and strip away the agent's marketing to give you a price anchor you can defend.
Due diligence and strategy
We do not negotiate blind. We read the campaign, gauge the seller's motivation and coordinate independent building, pest and strata reviews so you are not inheriting someone else's problem.
Negotiation and closing
We deal directly with the sales agent, drawing on experience from both sides of the industry. Whether it is a pre-auction offer or a run of counter-offers, we secure the property without the fatigue and without overpaying.
Is this service right for you?
Choose Assess and Negotiate if you have the time and energy to inspect homes every weekend and know your target streets, but want a professional negotiator to lock in the best price and terms.
Choose full service if you are time poor, geographically restricted, or want access to the pre-market and off-market opportunities that move through private networks.
Unsure which fits? On the discovery call we give you an honest recommendation for your situation.
What it costs
A one-off engagement, priced as a percentage of the purchase price and lower than full service because you have done the searching. An engagement deposit starts the work. The success fee is only paid if we secure the property. Quoted in writing before you commit, and the percentage does not move once you have engaged us.
Common questions
What people ask before they hand us the negotiation.
We value it, check it and buy it for you. You send us the listing, we research what it is actually worth against recent comparable sales, run the due diligence on the title, the overlays and the building, and then handle the negotiation or the auction so you are not dealing with the selling agent yourself.
From the sales that have actually happened, not the price guide. We rank the property against recent comparable sales in the same pocket, adjust for land, condition, aspect and position, and give you a value range in writing before you make an offer.
We tell you, and we tell you what it is worth. Then you decide: offer at the number the evidence supports, or walk away and bring us the next one. Overpaying because you have fallen for the house is the most common mistake we see, and it is the one this service exists to prevent.
Yes. If the search is taking more of your weekends than you expected, we can pick up the search from where you are. Ask on the discovery call and we will explain how the two engagements fit together.
Less than full service, because you have done the searching. It is a one-off engagement priced as a percentage of the purchase price, quoted in writing before you commit and locked from then on. An engagement deposit starts the work; the success fee is only paid if we secure the property.
