Best Buyers Agency of the year - 2025
How it works:
We source medium and large property development sites across Australia. Finding a profitable development site is not an easy process – it requires extensive searching, considerable expertise, research and due diligence to identify locations and sites where the figures stack up. Richard Anderson our specialist in this area, having been a property developer himself understands the dynamics and geographic drivers to success.
Review Richard Andersons experience here.
As Australia’s most awarded Buyers’ Advocates, we’ve helped many developers find suitable properties so you can be confident you are in safe hands. Most of the sites we have found in the past have never been advertised to the general public. These off-market opportunities are sourced through our extensive agent and developer network or direct opportunities with vendors. We help small and large developer teams extend their geographic reach and develop in new markets or interstate.
As a developer it is important you get independent advice before committing to a purchase. You must know your feasibility inside out, otherwise it is a recipe for financial disaster. Our role in the development process is primarily locating a suitable development site and estimating sale values. We typically run our own internal feasibility before presenting the site to a client. We can also provide referrals to other key service providers including builders, engineering consultants, quantity surveyors, town planners, land economic consultants and project managers.
Joint Ventures / Acquisitions
Our developer clients are particularly interested in Joint Venture or Acquisition opportunities directly with the land owners who may be risk averse and not want to undertake a development application process themselves or lack the financial means to commence investigations. We can help vendors unlock the development potential of their land by undertaking an independent feasibility assessment and connecting the land owner with a suitable developer.

Richard Anderson
Richard Anderson - Senior Acquisitions Manager - Development & Investment
Richard Anderson brings more than 25 years of experience in property development, investment and site acquisition across Australia, the UK and Southern Africa, including his own track record delivering projects through the full cycle, from acquisition to completion. That developer's-eye perspective is what sets him apart as a buyers agent: he understands the dynamics of strong micro and macro locations, reads planning parameters with precision, and knows how to spot the constraints that quietly kill a feasibility, before ever matching a site to a developer's mandate. It's a perspective earned by carrying that risk himself.
For developers, Richard's real value is reach. He maintains active coverage across regional and peri-urban corridors in NSW, Queensland and SA - residential and rural residential subdivisions, land lease community sites, and boutique high-end apartment opportunities in Sydney and Brisbane - tracking deal flow, off-market opportunities and agent relationships across geographies most developers simply don't have the time or internal resourcing to monitor themselves. Backed by a track record spanning $700M+ in gross development value and 800+ dwellings delivered, Richard gives developers a trusted extension of their own acquisition team, surfacing and stress-testing opportunities ahead of the market. Being visionary he stays engaged for the journey, not just the transaction.
