Straightforward Answers, No Hidden Costs
We don’t believe in vague answers when it comes to fees. Here’s exactly how buyer’s agent pricing works, and how ours is structured.
How much do buyer's agent fees cost?
[PLACEHOLDER — confirm with Rakesh: fixed fee, percentage of purchase price, or tiered by service level? Typical range?] The honest answer is, it depends on what you actually need from us, not a one-size number we quote everyone. Buyer's agent fees are usually structured as a fixed fee, a percentage of the purchase price, or a mix of both. We'll tell you exactly which applies to you, and why, before you commit to anything.
What determines the cost of a buyer's agent?
It usually comes down to the scope of the engagement: whether you need full-service support from strategy through to settlement, or help with just one part of the process, like negotiation. The more comprehensive the service, the more it reflects in the fee.
Do your fees change depending on the city, Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth or Adelaide?
[PLACEHOLDER — confirm with Rakesh: does the fee structure vary by location, or stay consistent nationally?] The scope of our process stays the same wherever you're buying, our fee structure reflects the service, not the postcode.
Is a fixed fee or a percentage-based fee better?
Neither is automatically better, it depends on what you value more: certainty or alignment. A fixed fee means you know the number from day one, no surprises. A percentage-based fee ties our result to yours, which only works in your favour if it's structured properly. We'd rather explain which model actually fits your situation on a call than sell you on one over the other upfront.
What's actually included in the fee?
[PLACEHOLDER — confirm with Rakesh: list the specific services bundled into the standard fee, e.g. strategy, suburb selection, property selection, negotiation, due diligence, handover.] Our fee covers the full end-to-end process for your engagement, not just the negotiation on the day.
Do I still pay if you don't find me a property?
[PLACEHOLDER — confirm with Rakesh: is there a no-purchase, no-fee guarantee, or a retainer structure regardless of outcome?] We'll be upfront about how this works for your specific engagement before you commit to anything.
Are your fees negotiable?
We're upfront about pricing from the first conversation, no back-and-forth required. If your situation has something unusual about it, tell us on your free strategy call and we'll factor it in honestly.
