About us

Your buyers advocate in Brisbane, in your corner.

Buying a home overwhelms most people. You are scrolling hundreds of listings and negotiating against agents who answer to the seller, not to you. As your buyers advocate, Buyers Collective takes that weight off you. We find the homes, read the market and handle the negotiation, so the one decision left to you is whether it feels like home.

Jack Freestone and the team at Buyers Collective were exceptional to work with. Jack is incredibly informative, proactive, and a complete professional. His expertise and guidance made the entire process smooth and easy from start to finish. He was genuinely focused on finding us a home that was even better than we could have dreamed of ourselves, and his knowledge of the market was invaluable.

Jack found the perfect home for us and negotiated so we stayed within budget. He organised the building, flood and fire reports and explained every step. We moved from interstate, and he took the confusion out of all of it.

As first-time buyers we had no idea what we were doing, but Saxon made the whole process feel so much less overwhelming. We found a place we love, in a location we did not think was in our budget, for a price we are really happy with.

Common questions

Buyers ask us.

The questions we hear most before someone starts. If yours is not here, a quick call will sort it.

Book a call

01What does a buyers agent in Brisbane do?

We handle the buying side from end to end: strategy, search on and off market, inspections, negotiation or auction bidding, then contract and settlement. See how it works on our process page.

See the seven steps

02How is a buyers agent different from a real estate agent?

A selling agent works for the vendor. We work only for you. No listings to sell, no conflict of interest. We are the counterforce in property.

Buyers agent vs selling agent, explained

03Is a buyers agent the same as a buyers advocate?

Yes. Buyers agent, buyer's agent and buyers advocate all mean the same thing: a licensed agent who works only for the buyer. We say buyers agent, but you will see all three.

What a buyers advocate actually does

04How much does a buyers agent cost in Brisbane?

We offer two ways to pay: a fixed fee, or a percentage of the purchase price, with an engagement fee when you sign. Every purchase is quoted on the brief, and we walk you through the numbers on the discovery call so there are no surprises.

Buyers agent fees in Brisbane

05Is a buyers agent worth the money?

For most buyers, yes. A buyers agent tends to pay for itself through a better price, a home you would never have seen on the portals, or a costly mistake you avoid. The discovery call is where we work out together whether we can add more than we cost.

Is a buyers agent worth it?

06Do you have access to off-market properties?

Yes. Daily agent relationships put pre-market and off-market stock in front of you that most buyers never get shown.

07Do you work with first home buyers?

Yes. A first home gets the same care and attention as a multi-million buy. We find, check and negotiate the right home for you, explain the inspections, reports and contract in plain English, and work for you, never the seller.

08Can you buy for me if I live interstate?

Yes. We are your eyes and ears on the ground in Brisbane through every step: video inspections, the local read, and the Queensland contract process explained plainly.

09Where in Brisbane do you work?

Right across Brisbane, from the inner east to the bayside and the west, and further afield in South-East Queensland, including the Gold Coast. We are based in New Farm.
