Tell us what you are after and your brief goes to more than 10,000 selling agents.
You get a named agent on the first call, and the same agent through to settlement.
A buyer's agent in Melbourne acts only for you, so the selling agent never learns your budget, your deadline or your finance position.
Go direct and you hand all three to the person paid to act against you. Melbourne is also Australia's largest auction market, and a buyer who bids for themselves does so against a professional, in public, with their limit on their face.
As at September 2026, Melbourne's median house value is $915,119 and median unit value is $624,740, with auction clearance rates at 49 percent.

Propertybuyer charges a fixed fee agreed before the search starts, and most Melbourne clients go from engagement to purchase in 30 to 60 days.
What you need, what you will hold to, and where. The fee is agreed here, before anything else.
On market and off. We inspect, read the contract and the building report, and appraise before you commit.
Private treaty or auction, we handle the agent and the room. You are never the one revealing your position.
We stay with you to the final inspection and the keys.
Off market means a property offered to buyers' agents before or instead of a public listing, and Propertybuyer's brief goes to a database of more than 10,000 selling agents.
It is access, not a discount. Off-market stock often carries a premium because the seller is trading certainty for price, so the job is to see it early and price it correctly, not to assume it is a bargain.
Propertybuyer's Melbourne agents buy for six kinds of buyer, and the brief, the search and the fee are set for each one rather than shared.
A Melbourne home buyer with a buyer's agent pays for the property, not for the competition. We shortlist against your brief, inspect on your behalf, and set the price from comparable sales rather than the campaign. When the right house goes to auction, you are not the one bidding in public.
Tell us what you are looking forInvestors use our Melbourne buyers' agents to buy for yield and growth rather than for the look of a listing. We work from the numbers: rent, vacancy, land value, and what the suburb has done over ten years. Wendy's purchase above is what that looks like two years on.
Tell us what you are looking forCommercial buyers get an appraisal before the negotiation, not after it. Geoff's office above came in $225,000 under asking because the number was set first. We buy offices, retail, industrial and mixed-use property, for owner occupiers and for investors.
Tell us what you are looking forExpats buy Melbourne property with us without flying back for it. We inspect in person, send you what we see, check the contract, and bid or negotiate on your behalf in your time zone or ours.
Tell us what you are looking forDevelopers use our Melbourne buyers' agents to find sites before they are marketed, with the planning position checked first. We source, appraise and negotiate the site.
Tell us what you are looking forPrestige buying in Melbourne is mostly off market, and mostly quiet. Our brief reaches the agents who hold those instructions before a campaign starts, and your name stays out of it until you choose otherwise. Toorak, Brighton, Portsea, and the addresses that never list.

"It's been such a pleasure dealing with Amanda throughout the whole negotiating process. As first home buyers who have finally found the right property, having her on our side proved to be invaluable."
"We used Amanda for our investment property journey in Melbourne. Amanda was warm, thorough and communicated openly with us throughout the process. She was knowledgeable about the market and helped us through the decision-making process. I would highly recommend her as a buyers agent."
"My agent Amanda was brilliant. She negotiated with great knowledge and skill, working late into the night without hesitation. Amanda has a very calming presence and guides you through it all with professionalism and care. And she gets you what you want."
"Just want to thank Tass and the Propertybuyer team for helping me secure this Toorak retail property. The sourcing and buying process was made so much easier with their support and guidance and especially for the uninitiated like me well worth the experience."
"Highly recommend Propertybuyer. We worked with Tass in Melbourne, he was great and we're very happy with our purchase. Low stress, efficient and a good result."
"I recently purchased a property with Tass Pattas's help. He was great to deal with from start to finish."

It is a fixed fee agreed upfront, set by your price range. For a full search that usually works out to around 1.5 to 2 percent of the purchase price, and around 1 percent to appraise and negotiate.
Most Melbourne purchases take 30 to 60 days from the day you engage us. Investors usually sit at the quicker end. Home buyers with a tight brief, or waiting on the right auction, can take a little longer.
Yes. We agree a walk-away figure with you the day before, then bid for you on the day, so your limit is never read from your face and you never bid against yourself.
Every part of metropolitan Melbourne, the Mornington Peninsula and regional Victoria, including Geelong, Ballarat and Bendigo. Our advocates live in or near the areas they buy in, and for investors we buy Australia-wide.
Yes. In the past two years we have bought in Bendigo, Ballarat and Lara near Geelong, and we cover the Surf Coast too. Every shortlisted property is inspected in person, so buying outside Melbourne never means buying blind.
We send your brief to more than 10,000 selling agents, so many properties reach us before they are advertised, or instead of being advertised. Off market is about access, not a discount, so we still price every one from comparable sales.
Yes. Plenty of our clients buy from interstate or overseas, and you never need to fly in. We inspect every property in person, send you the video, contract, building report and our appraisal, then negotiate or bid for you and keep you updated in your time zone.
We set your limit from comparable sales before auction day, agree a walk-away figure with you the day before, then do the bidding ourselves. The selling agent never reads your limit from your face, and you never bid against yourself.
Nothing. A buyer's advocate and a buyer's agent are the same licensed role acting for the buyer only. Victoria tends to say advocate; New South Wales and Queensland say agent.
One conversation tells you what your budget really buys in Melbourne, and how we would run the search. Nothing to sign.
