Our licensed real estate buyers' agents will work from your property brief to search for real estate in Fairlight to meet your requirements. We are experts in securing off-market prestige or commercial real estate property as well as sourcing positive geared property to super-charge your real estate investment portfolio. Whether you are a first time home buyer or a seasoned real estate investor, our team will negotiate on your behalf to get your the best deal for your property investment.
Our Award-Winning buyers' agents can help you secure the following:Fairlight is located on the Northern Beaches of Sydney, 10 kilometres north east of the CBD. Fairlight is in the local government area of Manly and is a short walk down the hill to Manly Wharf. Regular (30 minute) and fast (17 minute) ferries operate frequent services to Circular Quay from the Wharf. If you’d prefer to catch the bus, morning express busses travel along Sydney Road to the CBD.
Apartments make up the majority (around 50%) of properties in Fairlight and suit the predominant demographic in the area – maturing and established independence. Many of the apartment blocks are character Federation and Art Deco buildings, however there are also a number of 70’s towers and modern, medium rise security complexes. Houses make up a further 25% and semi-detached and other properties make up the remaining quarter.
Fairlight has a local shopping village that includes all the essentials including Foodworks supermarket, a butcher, pharmacy, doctor, bottle shop, hair salon, vet and cafés. If you need more than the essentials, The Corso in Manly and Stockland shopping centre in Balgowlah are only a short 1km walk away. Warringah Mall is less than 10 minutes’ drive away and is currently being expanded to offer more than 340 stores in total.
There are no schools in Fairlight itself, although it does have a couple of child care options. Manly West Public School is just around the corner in Balgowlah or St Mary’s School in Manly offers a Catholic Primary School alternative. Other schools in Manly include Royal Far West School, which caters primary and secondary children with disabilities and St Paul’s Catholic College (for secondary boys) and Stella Maris College (for secondary girls). Northern Beaches Secondary College (with separate campuses for boys and girls in Balgowlah and Manly Vale respectively) is also very well regarded.
Fairlight has a small beach with an ocean pool that’s popular with locals. If you continue west along the foreshore, there is also a very scenic and popular walking path that extends all the way from Manly to the Spit Bridge. Alternatively, if you walk east it’s a 15 minute walk to Manly Beach. Manly Golf Course is positioned at the north end of the suburb and is open to members only. LM Graham Reserve is next to the golf course and features a full size outdoor basketball court and cricket nets and is also a popular meeting place for dog walkers. The Andrew ‘Boy’ Charlton Swim Centre is currently undergoing a renovation and will shortly feature an indoor 25m pool, children’s pool, spa pool, sauna, steam room, fitness centre and crèche in addition to the existing 25m and 50m outdoor pools.
Fairlight is a family friendly location with an emphasis on lifestyle. It’s within walking distance to multiple beaches, but also offers an easy daily commute to the CBD via ferry or bus. Many properties also have stunning harbour views.

North Shore & Northern Beaches
Matt is a licensed real estate buyers’ agent with extensive experience in purchasing residential homes and investment properties for both local and international clients. He specialises in the North Shore and Northern Beaches and has secured dream homes for buyers with a wide range of needs, investment goals and budgets. A brilliant negotiator with expert knowledge.

Speak to Matt"It paid off for us. I thought Matt was fantastic, I was very impressed with his skills and also with his network. He has that rapport with most real estate agents and he also knows their backstory. He's a great buyer's agent, he's got a lot of experience and is a fantastic negotiator. I'll rate Propertybuyer 10 out of 10 to be honest, they're very professional and have very good knowledge of the market."
Why do I need a buyers’ agent?
You will save yourself money, time and stress when you engage a professional buyers’ agent to help you with your next investment property purchase. You will be empowered with the knowledge you need to make an informed decision about the value of a property without all of the sales “hype” often associated with property purchases – we protect you from making an emotional decision. You will have the benefit of our extensive research and analysis into past sales and comparable market data and will be protected from paying too much. You may also gain access to properties not yet advertised, otherwise known as “silent listings”.
Investors will gain access to our wide network of excellent investment opportunities and also get the inside knowledge of the best areas to invest. As property investors ourselves we understand the strict criteria required to buy high performing properties.
Our testimonials describe the ways we have been able to add value to our many clients. Most of our increasing client base stems from glowing referrals given by clients who have been impressed with the value and service we provide.
Does a buyers’ agent need to have a real estate background?
Is A Buyers’ Agent worth the money?
Yes! We regularly save clients far more than the fee we charge, through our understanding of the property market and our skilled negotiation techniques. We offer a fixed fee service. The advantage of the fixed fee structure is that you only pay the same fee regardless of the price of the property. There are three key areas you will get great value for money by engaging P
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?
Propertybuyer is currently the most awarded Buyers Agency in Australia, and this public scrutiny is an unbiased testament to our integrity, value

With our help, you will save time, money and stress on your next property purchase. You will gain access to more properties, be better informed about comparable sales, the true value of a property and capital growth projections for the area, and you will make a more informed decision. When you decide on the right property, we will negotiate for you so you will be able to make a rational decision about price without the stress and pressure of dealing with real estate agents or having to negotiate.
Do you have professional indemnity insurance?
What is the process and how long will it take?
If I engage the services of propertybuyer, will you guarantee to find me a property?
Yes – as long as your buyers brief is realistic. We guarantee to give you personal and professional service and a detailed analysis

"We struggled, some properties were advertised ten percent less than our budget but unfortunately went for way above. Matt knows all of the agents in the beaches very well, and he knows how to play a strategy for each type of property as well as each type of agent."

"Well for me being a single women was quite challenging and i think some real estate agents find it difficult to communicate with a women. The main reason was that in 2016 I used a buyers agent and that was a great outcome. I probably looked at 20 homes with Matt and decided to use him again… he was like a lifeline to me. He communicated with the estate agents, he met all my needs, he was reassuring that everything was going to be okay and in addition to that he was incredibly approachable.
In my second experience, it elevated all the stress and made the challenge of buying a home much easier. I felt understood and supported all the way along during the whole process."
