Australian Broker: “Off-market buying surges as competition heats up nationwide”
In a piece written for mortgage brokers, Australian Broker quoted Jack on why a fast-moving market with few published price guides is pushing buyers toward off-market and pre-market sales. Jack explained that when prices are hard to read, off-market buying gives people more time to assess value and negotiate terms.
He also detailed the due diligence Buyers Collective completes before ever putting an offer forward, from flood maps and easements to overland flow and future suburb development, which is why selling agents trust that our offers will proceed to settlement.
“Before we even inspect a property, we’ve checked flood maps, easements, overland flow, and future suburb development. When we put forward an offer, agents know it’s solid and will proceed to settlement.”
A price guide is a starting point, not a valuation. In a fast market you only really know what a suburb is doing if you are watching sales happen in it every week.
The homework we do up front is what makes our offers welcome. An agent knows a Buyers Collective offer is finance-ready and will not fall over.
