how quIckly can i expect a positive result?
A result can happen as quickly as a few weeks or up to few months. It depends on your brief, budget, competition and availability of the types of properties that will work best for you. Typically clients purchase within 2-12 weeks when working with us.
Have YOU EVER HAD ANYONE NOT GET A POSITIVE RESULt?
Occasionally prospective clients ask “what if you don’t find a property that I am happy with”?
Since introducing our Strategic Buying System our clients have enjoyed a 99% success rate when using our premium service.
WILL I RECOVER MY INVESTMENT IN YOUR SERVICE?
There are a few ways that you will recover your investment in my buyer’s agent service.
1) TIME SAVED
Many of my clients come to me after trying to buy real estate for 12 months. When you work with me, you not only save 12 months of trying to DIY, but because of the resources I have access to and my experience I am able to hone in on the right properties faster and negotiate to win the ideal property for you quickly.
2) EXPERIENCED GAINED
Some of my clients love the idea of hiring me for their first 1-2 purchases before they venture off and DIY. That way they can learn from an expert AND get their desired result saving them from having to invest money into expensive property training and mentors.
3) SAVINGS OFF ASK PRICE
Depending on the property market, your budget and your brief it is possible for you to save a lot of money off the asking price. You can view the case studies to see the varying amounts and circumstances surrounding the discounts clients have enjoyed.
4) TAX DEDUCTIONS
If you are buying an investment property my fee may be tax deductible. Please speak with your accountant about this and be sure to keep your invoice and receipt with your purchase details so you remember to claim the fee as a tax deduction.
5) MAKE MONEY ON PURCHASE
As the old saying goes “you make money when you purchase”, and that can certainly be the case for my clients when they work with me. My experience and expertise gives you the upper hand when it comes to securing a property before it hits the market and without competition which means you pay less for the property than you would if you were a weekend buyer competing against multiple offers. Buying below market value gives you instant equity and places you ahead of the game
CAN YOU LOCATE CASH FLOW POSITIVE PROPERTIES?
Melbourne is not known for having really high rental yields, so typically the answer is No. However, if you have a large cash deposit and interest rates are low, this may result in your property being cash flow positive.
We are very well versed in the Melbourne market and know which suburbs and property types to target for higher yields. If you require a neutrally geared or minimal-outlay property so you can live comfortably and be able to keep growing your portfolio then we can assist you to get the best results available in the Metro Melbourne property market.
