... 🏠, 6 things our clients thank us for!

Published: Sat, 03/25/23

Hi ,

We often get asked: what's the difference between a buyer's advocate and a real estate agent? The key difference between a buyer's advocate and a real estate agent is who they represent.

A real estate agent is acting on behalf of the seller, also known as the vendor. A buyer's advocate is acting purely on behalf of the buyer, working exclusively for them to achieve the very best outcome for their client.

Here are 6 ways a buyer's advocate can work with you to find the right home:

Buyer's advocates can help you find the type of home you want by providing you with a shortlist of properties.
They can arrange private inspections for the properties you are keen on viewing.
Buyer's advocates can communicate and deal with your nominated solicitor, finance provider and building and pest inspector. They can also attend final inspections.
They can prepare and present the offer on your behalf to the real estate agent.
A buyer's advocate has access to “off market” sales or “secret sales” and is able to assist their clients in the purchase of these properties without the general public ever knowing that they are available to inspect and buy.
A buyer's advocate can also bid at auction on your behalf.

There are many more ways we can assist you to find your new property, whether it is your first home, your next home or looking to buy an investment property. We would love to help.

What our happy clients have to say...

We love hearing what our happy clients have to say about their experiences with Chamberlain Property Advocates. We helped Sara sell her first property.

Here is what they had to say about his experience of working with a Buyers Advocate:

"As a first time property seller, the best decision I made was to reach out to Wendy. She and her team were fantastic, worked in total collaboration with the real estate agent, and their communication was excellent. Wendy's down to earth nature, honesty and reassurance throughout the process made selling my property as stress free as can be, knowing I was in very capable hands."

Sara

Wendy's Tips

"In Victoria, the standard deposit is 10% but sometimes you can negotiate 5%. Have these conversations before the auction date with your agent because on the auction day, the agents are really busy. The same goes with a settlement date. If you have a particular date that you need to meet, for example, you might have sold your home and are looking to buy another one. Or perhaps you are renting and have been given a notice to vacate by a set date. Be sure to tell your agent before the day of the auction, so that they have lots of time to go to their vendor and come back to you. This will ensure that everything lines up and suits everybody that is going to be a part of that purchase."
