If you’ve ever typed “how to become a buyers agent” into a search engine, it won’t take you long to work out that the pathway is unclear. There are a number of reasons why this is the case. This article will explain why and point you in the right direction.
Search for an apartment in Bondi
Scott and Angela had a healthy budget of over $1M to buy a 2 bedroom apartment in Bondi Beach, where the market had been hot, hot, hot for many months. Auctions were going crazy and prices had risen sharply in the months since they first started to look.
Search for a family home
Naz and Julian had advised me that they preferred to spend under $1M (totally understandable!) but would be prepared to stretch to $1.1M for something that was perfect.

Helping Jessica to buy her first home was particularly rewarding for me. She was about the same age I was when I bought my first apartment, so I could easily identify with the excitement she felt about the big step she was about to take.

Wow, there were a lot of issues with this search. As is often the with tree and sea changers, I was concerned that Suzie’s decision to set up a vegan B&B and animal retreat in the Byron Bay hinterland was both romantic and naive in equal measure.
