Our client, first-time buyers and immigrants, were feeling overwhelmed trying to find a home in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs. With rising interest rates, their budget had shrunk, and what they thought they could afford a year ago was now out of reach. On top of that, they were nervous about the whole process—it felt like navigating the Sydney market was too complex, and they were worried that paying for a buyer’s agent would stretch their budget even further. When they found the perfect home in the Southeastern Beaches, there was a delay as their finance hadn’t been formally approved, and they were scared they’d lose the property to someone else. They were up against other buyers, and time was of the essence. Solution: The buyer’s agent fee more than proved its worth and we saved our client nearly $100,000 in the process. What the client initially thought would be an additional cost turned out to be a wise investment. Sensing the urgency of their situation, Lisa and Munro were engaged as their Buyers Agents. They jumped in immediately, using their team of alliance partner connections and proven experience to keep their client in the running for the home. Knowing the finance approval was imminent they proactively begun the legwork—undertaking due diligence and negotiating with the sales agent to make sure they stayed ahead of the competition. Within just four days of being engaged as the buyer's agents, and thanks to the Lisa & Munro’s proactive due diligence they were ready to strike when the client's finance was approved; (which occurred less than 12 hours before the deadline). Lisa and Munro swiftly moved forward, and exchange took place within record time. This showed how crucial it is to be prepared and ready to act decisively and not miss out in Sydney’s competitive property market.
