The best thing that I really enjoyed, and I saved a lot of money at the end, was the negotiation skills. If you like the property, what's the next step? How do you choose your lawyer? With the help of Propertybuyer you can make this tough decision, and know that it's the right decision, because you always bounce your idea back at your buyers' agent.

Finding your ideal property in Melbourne can be a daunting and time-consuming task. But with our expert Melbourne Buyers Agent- we make the process enjoyable and satisfying. Melbourne is one of Australia’s fastest growing cities with a vast array of quality suburbs and properties.
From top end suburbs of Toorak, South Yarra or Brighton to the mid-tier areas of Doncaster, Essendon or Maribyrnong, the outskirts of Mt Evelyn or Keilor Downs or the Bayside areas of Beaumaris, Frankston or Mornington – our Melbourne Buyers Advocates have it covered!
Melbourne is considered Australia’s leading auction market – so having a Melbourne Buyers agent on your side makes perfect sense to avoid making emotional mistakes. Plus our Melbourne buyers advocate will help you uncover off market opportunities that you'd never discover on your own.
Securing your next home or investment property in Melbourne requires deep and established connections to get ahead of other buyers. Our Melbourne buyers advocate will help you uncover the ideal area and property type to suit your individual requirements and generously share their local knowledge.
Melbourne’s property market has proven to be more resilient than many other cities, with the most recent example being its bounce back from the dip during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, when strict lockdown restrictions virtually froze all activity. Now, want-to-be homeowners and investors are once again buying property in Melbourne, with major growth occurring in the sub-regions and north-eastern suburbs.
Family homes, in particular, are in high-demand as people reassess their needs; for instance, they’re now looking for office space to work comfortably from home and bigger gardens in which children can amuse themselves for hours on end. Many buyers that have missed out in Melbourne property auctions are now considering suburbs a little further out in Doncaster, Blackburn, Donvale and Ringwood where there are large size blocks ripe for renovation or rebuilding.
Some of the most promising areas of property investment in Melbourne are in high-end suburbs, where prestige property offers outstanding capital growth. High growth areas include St. Kilda West, Portsea, Kingsville, and St. Andrews Beach. The best way to capitalise on these investment opportunities is to consult a buyers’ agent who specialises in luxury real estate in Melbourne.
First-time buyers looking for an entry level home should cast their eye on property within 10km – 20km from the CBD, especially in the northern and western suburbs. Maidstone, Footscray, and Preston are all good investments and they’re all at the 10km radius mark.
Those looking for affordable apartments should look at Maidstone and Footscray. Families wanting to move to these areas are best advised to consult a buyers’ agent in Melbourne to help them find properties close to parks, schools, and transport links.
If you want neither an entry-level home nor prestige property, buyers’ advocates in Melbourne can show you suburbs that have been highly rated for lifestyle, safety, and entertainment opportunities. Some of these include South Yarra (cafes, shopping, nightlife and public transport); Carlton (restaurants and well-established café culture, museums, proximity to the CBD); East Melbourne (cafes, public gardens, and transport links).
It’s notable that while proximity to parks, schools and transport links have always attracted buyers, a new priority has entered the scene: Proximity to cafes or coffee shops. There is a new appreciation for relaxed social gatherings where people can drink in their quiet neighbourhoods, while also drinking their favourite beverages.
For buyers seeking an affordable lifestyle change should consider the Bayside areas of Melbourne including Beaumaris, Mordialloc, Carrum Downs, Aspendale, Seaford, Parkdale and Cheltenham. These areas have become very popular and all have school zones and great public transport that home buyers and property investors are drawn to.

A buyers’ agent can save you a packet of money if they are experienced, knowledgeable and have your best interests at heart. They can take the emotion out of the negotiation and auction process and give you accurate advice on property values. They should have an extensive database of agent contacts to help you find off-market properties.
How Do I find A Buyers’ Agent?
Apart from searching online, ask a local selling agent if they have seen a good buyers agent in action. You can also ask family, friends and work colleagues about their experience with using buyers agents.
An important question to ask a buyers agent is whether they are truly “exclusive” or “independent”. If they accept sales commission from vendors or developers then they cannot be classified as “independent” as they are acting in the interests of the seller. Only deal with a licensed buyers agent (you can check license via the Office of Fair Trading in each state) and one that is a recognised member of your state Real Estate Institute and the Real Estate Buyers Agents Association of Australia.
There are seven factors to consider when selecting a good buyers agent.
Is it affordable to use a buyers’ agent?
Are buyers’ agents fees tax deductible?
Do you offer any guarantees with your service?
