Why Should You Invest in Properties in Australia?

Property investment is one of the most powerful ways to build wealth and create a reliable passive income for retirement. In cities like Melbourne and Sydney, property prices have historically grown by 7-10% annually, with blue-chip locations often seeing growth rates of 20% or more. With this level of performance, real estate consistently outperforms shares, equities, and even speculative cryptocurrency trading—making it one of the best ways to safeguard your wealth and beat inflation. But with so many so-called "experts" and "investment strategists" trying to sell you a dream, how do you know who to trust? The real question isn’t if you should invest in property—it’s how to invest the right way.

What are Some Property Investment Strategies Investors Can Use?

We are familiar with many popular property investment strategies. Some are more suitable for the active investors, while some are for passive investors.

What types of investment properties are right for you?

To achieve financial freedom and retire early through property investment, it’s crucial to have the right mix of cash-flow and growth investment properties at the right time. This mix ensures a reliable income stream for retirement. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach. Anyone claiming otherwise is likely just trying to sell you something. The ideal property mix varies based on individual risk profiles, strategies, and goals. Many investors make mistakes by following generic advice, leading to failure in property investing. According to the Australian Tax Office (ATO), only the top 5% of property investors can truly rely on their investments for retirement. Most hit a serviceability ceiling after their second or third property due to poor initial choices and strategies. Choose wisely, and ensure your investment plan is tailored to your unique situation for long-term success.

Why Use a Buyers Agent in Melbourne?

Melbourne’s property scene is a high-stakes race where selling agents outmanoeuvre inexperienced buyers every weekend—eight out of ten buyers leave empty-handed, and many of the “winners” unknowingly overpay. A dedicated buyer’s agent flips that script. We assess and help you determine a tailored purchase strategy, open doors to off-market stock, and apply true-to-market valuations so you never bid blind. While we handle inspections, negotiations and paperwork, you reclaim your weekends—knowing an expert who answers only to you is locking in the right home or investment at the right price. If you value time saved, stress removed and dollars protected, a buyer’s advocate is your competitive edge in Melbourne’s fiercely contested marketplace.
Are Buyer Agents and Buyers Advocates the same?

Yes—and no. In Australia the titles are often used interchangeably, but there is a subtle distinction: Buyers Agent – any licensed professional engaged (and paid) by the purchaser to source, assess and negotiate property. Buyers Advocate – a Buyers Agent who follows a stricter, buyer-first code of conduct and is widely regarded as the gold-standard within the industry. Both work exclusively for you—not the seller—providing market insight, risk protection and negotiation muscle. The key is independence: unlike selling agents who serve the vendor, a Buyers Advocate is legally and ethically bound to secure the best outcome for the purchaser, whether you’re chasing a first home or an investment in Melbourne’s competitive market. And you have the semi Buyer's Agents. These are sales agents who moonlight as buyers agents, often for free, and are paid by the property owners, or shares commissions with other sales agents. These are unscrupulous sales agents masquerading as buyers agents. Because they are paid by the seller, it legally makes them sales agents. Calling themselves buyer's agents is a serious misrepresentation of their services.
How much are Melbourne Buyers Agents Services and Knowledge Worth?

Only you can put a price on your time, your peace of mind and the confidence that you’re paying the right figure for the right property. Savvy Melbourne buyers— from seasoned investors to high-performing professionals—gladly invest a modest, fixed fee in a buyers advocate because they know the return is measured in the confidence of buying the right property for them and the months saved, stress avoided and tens of thousands saved at the negotiating table. We'll be honest. Our service isn’t free, nor is it for everyone, but when the stakes involve a million dollar asset, the cost of expert guidance is invariably eclipsed by the value of secure, data-driven decisions and a seamless path to settlement.
What are the Advantages of working with a Buyers Agent?

Precision property matching – we shortlist only the homes or investments that fit your goals, budget and growth strategy. Negotiation edge – armed with real-time data and auction know-how, we secure the property at the lowest achievable price and on buyer-friendly terms. Full due-diligence cover – inspections, contract reviews and price modelling handled in-house, so you buy the property with total confidence. Independent, data-backed advice – no sales spin, just clear fact-based guidance that helps you make smart, compounding decisions. Time & stress saved – we manage every moving part, freeing you to enjoy the result rather than wrestle with the process. In short, a buyers’ advocate gives you expert insight, risk control and measurable savings—turning a complex purchase into a calm, rewarding experience.
What is the difference between a Buyer Agent and Listing Agent (Selling Agent or Vendor Agent) in Australia?

In Australia, a buyer’s advocate — also called a buyer’s agent — works exclusively for you, the buyer. Because you, as the buyer, hire and pay them, they search the market (including off-market and pre-market opportunities) for the best deal, perform deep due-diligence, and negotiate to secure the right property at the lowest achievable price on price and terms that favour you. On the other hand, the typical real estate agent you see listing properties for sale and at open for inspections, and such, are your listing agents, vendor agents or sales agents. The listing or selling agent, is engaged and paid by the seller, and their are legally required to maximise the sale price and protect the seller’s interests, thus offering only the properties they have been contracted to sell. Put simply, a buyer’s agent is your independent strategist and property advisor, saving you time, money and stress, while a selling agent is the seller’s negotiator, focused on extracting the highest price from you.
How Much Can a Melbourne Buyer's Agent Save Me?

The exact amount of savings depends on the property, competition and the negotiator’s skill, but our track record shows the upside is often five-figures. By unlocking off-market options, nailing true market value and negotiating hard, clients regularly finish more than $20k-$50 k ahead—and in one standout case, we shaved $500 k off the asking price. Add the weeks of search time you reclaim and the stress you avoid, and the value of an experienced buyer’s advocate quickly eclipses the flat fee you pay. Thus, buyers who understand the need to use a buyer's agent often do not measure the savings in dollars. But if you are still interested to how, here is how we saved one of our client $500,000. Yes, that's half a million dollars. Read the facts here.
Do Buyer's Agents Guarantee the Maximum Discounts in Melbourne?

Let us be brutally honest with this answer. No reputable buyers agents can—because price depends on market conditions, competition and the property itself. If you come across any buyers agents who guarantee discounts, RUN! Some buyers agents who promise a set percentage discount up-front; the figure often evaporates once you’ve signed, or the “discount” is taken from an inflated starting price. At Concierge Buyers Advocates we do not low-ball offers just to claim a win if it risks losing the home you love. Instead, we combine data-driven valuations with tailored strategy to secure the property on the lowest achievable terms for you—no hype, no hollow guarantees, just independent negotiation that puts your interests first. And if your idea of engaging a buyer's agent is still to ensure you get a guaranteed discount, we may not be the right match. Discounted Properties area available for buyers with the right expectations.
Some buyer's agents are promising $x thousands in savings. How do they do that?

This is a very good question. From our experience, here are some possibilities. Some agencies inflate an asking price first, then claim a “discount” after shaving it back. Others buyers agents are paid from developers eager thus steering you toward properties which pays them the highest commissions, or with hidden flaws—costly repairs, adverse histories, or oversupply risk. The savings might look impressive on paper, but the properties themselves are overpriced or problematic. At Concierge Buyers Advocates we refuse to play that game. Our 20+ years in the Melbourne real estate market have shown that no one can honestly guarantee a fixed dollar saving on every purchase. But what we do guarantee is independent, data-driven advice and disciplined negotiation that delivers the best achievable price for the property you genuinely want, without inflated starting points or conflicted incentives. Integrity first, every time.
When should you NOT use a buyer agent in Melbourne?

We're upfront with our clients. Integrity and honesty is why our clients have trusted our opinion. And this is why our clients are coming back for their 2nd, 3rd and subsequent properties. We will be honest and fair with you, and our client. Unlike other buyers advocates in the industry, we would rather turn a client away than to sign up a client who will not benefit from our services. In short, Buyer Agent Services are not for you, if you enjoy: the property search, the trial-and-error, have the time to comb listings, arrange inspections, run valuations, negotiate with agents and manage contracts being neutral, confident, stay unemotional under auction pressure If you are the highly hands-on buyers but just need a real estate advisor to back you up, our Buyer's Buddy Service might be suitable for you. Otherwise, we’d rather be upfront, turn you away, than than accept a brief that we cannot add real value.
Do You Really Need a Buyer's Advocate? A Quick 2 Minute Self-Check

Let's take this test. If 2 or more of the following describes you, then you probably do not need a Melbourne buyers agent: Your can set aside sufficient time for the purchase process. You do not mind spending months searching and attending property inspections. You do not mind spending your weekends and evenings attending disappointing property inspections. You do not mind spending your evenings on property searches, instead of spending time with your loved ones. You do not mind the risk of buying the wrong Melbourne property. You do not mind paying too much for your property. You do not mind going all out to out-bid your competitor. You trusted and graduated from the University of Google and/or University of Facebook. You trusted the faceless "experts" behind the public domain advice, and you can differentiate fact from fiction. You are satisfied with the public property listing boards, and are not interested with the fact that more than 70% of the Melbourne properties sold or bought were never listed publicly. You insist on low balling offers for properties. We want to keep our service commitment to you and do not want to waste your time. You insist on profiting from the misery of motivated sellers. Sorry, our integrity says no to us profiteering from unfortunate homeowners. But we will still get the best buying outcome for you. You will save yourself our buyers advocacy fees by purchasing properties on your own. And we sincerely wish you good luck.
Are all buyers agents in Melbourne the same?

Melbourne’s market is crowded with unlicensed property spruikers and “investment consultants” or "investment strategists" who call themselves buyers agents, collect hefty enrolment fees or developer kickbacks, and push stock that benefits them—not you. Ironically, fishy sales tactics claiming to give you financial Freedom... These are just marketers commissioned by developers to sell their products. Not real investment specialists. Every Buyers Advocate at Concierge Buyers is police checked, fully licensed, insured and bound by a strict code of conduct that forbids taking commissions from sellers. That legal independence means sellers are not incentivising us to sell their properties, and that ensures our advice stays impartial, our allegiance stays with you, and every recommendation is driven by data—not developer incentives. Protect your purchase: choose a genuinely licensed buyers advocate, not a marketing masquerade.
Who would benefit from using a Buyers Agent in Melbourne?

From our years of experience, property buyers who will benefit from the services of a Buyers Agent or Buyers Advocates are: Property buyers who: Are time poor. Do not have enough time to search, and inspect properties. Do not know where to buy. Are inexperienced in buying properties in Melbourne. Do not like dealing with real estate sales agents. Are inexperienced negotiators and auction bidders. If one or more of the above describes you, you will benefit from the services of a buyer's agent. Most buyers looking to buy properties in Melbourne would benefit from using a Buyers Agent. This includes first home buyers, investors, upgraders, busy professionals, and anyone looking to buy properties in the Melbourne market with confidence and minimal stress. People who engage Buyers Agents are buyers who do not mind investing approximately 1% of the property price to get valuable insights into the market and help to make the most informed decision when it comes to purchasing property. Buyers agents also tends to include assistance with negotiations, advice on legal matters, and assist with the entire purchase process.
Where can You find a good buyer's agent in Melbourne?

Not all buyers’ agents are the same. Before you engage the buyers' agent, here are some questions which you should ask: 1. Are they fully licensed real estate agents? Be wary of hiring buyers agents who do not hold a valid real estate licence. There are many so-called buyer's agents or buyer's advocates who are actually not licensed estate agents at all. Buyer's agents must be licensed, by law, to ensure they are police checked and you are serviced with the strict code of conduct you deserve. This is your guarantee of legal protection and proven expertise. Do not risk putting one your million dollar investments in the hands of somebody who do not have the experience needed to protect your interest. Do not be tempted to engage simply because of their lower fees. They are either inexperienced or are incentivised by commissions from sellers. Reputable buyers advocates do not have to attract your business by offering you low fees. 2. Are they really an independent buyer's agent? If they are related to another real estate selling agency, they would not be independent. Unconflicted advice is the only way your interests is their top priority, not their rice bowl. How can they offer an independent, unbiased opinion on a property, if they are not dedicated, independent buyer's agents? Remember this: Would a Toyota dealer recommend a Honda to you? 3. Do they have access to off-market properties (or silent listings)? 70% of the transacted properties are never listed on the public market. Not all sellers want the publicity that comes with a public listing. And good properties can sell fast, without being listed. It is thus critical that your buyer's agent has the right contact to tap into this silent market to help expand your property buying options. 4. How well do they know the area and the price range you are searching for? An area specialist having good knowledge of the area is critical to helping you buy the right property, at the right location, at the right price. If they do not have a strong knowledge of the area you are looking to purchase in, be wary. Be wary of new buyers agents and interstates buyers agents who claim to understand the area very well, simply by looking at a set of data. Fact is, numbers are lag indicators. Just ask our data-scientist boss, Raymondson. Numbers report things which had already happened 6-9 months ago. IE, you are already 6-9 months too late, if you rely simply on these numbers. Without the local first hand knowledge and boots on the ground experience in the area, every "future prediction" is just a guess. Tick all four boxes and you’ve found a true concierge-level partner—equipped to secure the right property at the right price, without compromise.
What does a Melbourne buyer's agent fees cover?

A Buyers Agent or Buyers Advocates fees covers the cost of the search and buy service being provided by the buyers advocate. Buyer's agents (or buyer's advocates) typically charge a upfront non-refundable retainer fee (registration fee) of between $3,000 to $5,000. There is also a success fee when they found the right property for you and have successfully purchased on your behalf. This can be a percentage of the final purchase price, or a fixed fee.

Here is why people pay when they can do it themselves: Saves you money: They understand the property market, and they have the industry knowledge, know what is happening in the market. They are in it all day. They know the fair valuation of a property, know how to negotiate to get the best price for you and prevent you from overpaying unknowingly.

Where can I find off-market property in Melbourne?

An "off-market" property is one that is not openly listed. There could be many reasons why a property is "off-market". Generally, an "off-market" property is a: Property which is not for sale. Property which is for sale, but not advertised on the main real estate websites such as realestate and domain. Property which is for quick sale, at all cost. Property that was previously listed and marketed and then withdrawn from market. Very often off-market properties are also not staged for sale. And it takes an experienced property professional to see through the clutter, to appreciate the true value of the property. Some sources claim that you can get off-markets simply by asking an agent. Fact is, many of these so-called "off-market properties" which sales agents have are fake. Owners wants to sell, but are usually unwilling to pay for advertising or have very ridiculous price expectations that the agents are unwilling to put their names against it. Thus they are not openly listed. However, because we are talking to property owners all the time, buyers agents would have hundreds of genuine off-market properties. But we do not disclose them until we qualify our clients. We only disclose off-market properties which we think the client will want. We respect the sellers' privacy.

Why can't a real estate Selling Agent help buyers?

If you're looking to buy a property, it's important to understand that selling agents work for the seller, not the buyer. They are legally obligated to get the highest possible price for the seller, so they cannot legally represent buyers' interests in the transaction. While some agents claim to work for both the buyer and the seller, take this with a pinch of sale, as there is a clear conflict of interest. At our independent property buying concierge service, we're different. As independent buyer's advocates, we have no vested interest any the property sale. We can buy from anyone and anywhere, giving you access to the entire property market. We research top real estate agencies such as Ray White and Barry Plant, listings on sites like realestate.com and domain.com, and our network of property sources to find the perfect property to suit your needs.

Can a Real Estate Buyer's Agent provide financial or investment advice?

No, a real estate buyer's agent cannot provide financial or investment advice. As a real estate buyer's agent, we specialize in properties, not financial advice. Only licensed financial advisors can provide that. While real estate sales agents protect the interest of sellers and aim to get the highest price for their properties, buyer's agents protect the buyer's interest and help ensure a fair representation in the purchase process. Our experience and understanding of the property market can help us confidently forecast the future price growth and potential of a property based on its characteristics and the market conditions. Some buyer’s agents claim to offer free financial planning or investment advice—but be cautious. If they do not hold an Australian Financial Services Licence (AFSL), their advice is legally worthless marketing fluff. Without an AFSL, it is illegal to provide financial advice in Australia. So, if a buyer’s agent promises financial projections, investment strategies, or wealth-building advice, ask to see their AFSL—chances are, they don’t have one. At Concierge Buyers Advocates, we don’t make empty promises. Our licensed buyer’s agents are also successful property investors who know a good deal when we see one. We’ll help you buy the right property, at the right price—but for financial planning, we always recommend consulting a licensed financial advisor.

Why don't other Melbourne property buyers use a Buyer's Agent?

There are several reasons why some Melbourne property buyers choose not to use a buyer's agent. They may not be aware of the benefits of using a buyer's agent, as buyer's agent services are still relatively new in Australia. Some buyers may believe that they can handle the buying process on their own, without any expert assistance. Some buyers may not want to pay the fee for a buyer's agent, thinking that it's an unnecessary expense. However, as more people become aware of the benefits of using a buyer's agent, and as the property market becomes more competitive, it is likely that more buyers will choose to engage a buyer's agent to help them get ahead of other buyers, navigate the buying process and get the best possible deal. Just like other overseas matured markets such as USA and UK, buyers not represented by buyers will increasingly be sidelined in the buying process, and being taking advantage of by the sales agents. They are easy target who will fall for the sales agents' marketing campaign, and pressure sell tactics.

Are all buyers agents in Melbourne the same?

No. Did you know that not all property buyer experts are licensed? As licensed and insured property agents, buyer's agents are bound by the same code of conduct and legislation to ensure their clients receive appropriate home buying services and protection. However, there are many unlicensed buyers agents who claim to be property investment experts and charge fees for their "property mentoring programs" and "good investment properties". These fake buyers agents receive substantial commissions from the developers they recommend, which influence their recommendations. This raises questions about the neutrality of their advice. With licensed buyer agents, it is illegal to receive commission from the seller and charge the buyer a fee for it. This ensures that buyers receive impartial and independent advice on properties they buy. Choose licensed buyer agents like Concierge Buyers Advocates to ensure that you receive the best possible advice and protection.
