Question 1

What is a buyer's agent?

Accepted Answer

A buyer's agent is a licensed real estate agent who represents buyers in real estate transactions. They work exclusively for the buyer and not the seller, and their goal is to help buyers find the best property at the best possible price.

Question 2

Does a buyer's agent require a real estate licence?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. To become a buyer's agent to represent buyers, the agent must have complete real estate agent licence. Our buyer's agent has a full real estate licence for Victoria and Queensland so we can legally represent and sign the contract on behalf of the clients.

Question 3

Can you help interstate buyers?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! One of the main reasons for hiring a buyer's agent is to help investors purchase investment properties or homes to live in before they arrive. Our team at Ryan Kim Buyer's Agents is experienced in working with interstate buyers and can assist you in finding the perfect property in Melbourne within your budget and preferences. We understand that buying a property from afar can be a daunting and risky task, which is why we offer comprehensive services to make the process as smooth and trustworthy as possible.

Question 4

What is the process of purchase with a Buyers Agent?

Accepted Answer

At my buyer's agent service, we walk you through the process step by step. Your journey starts with signing an engagement form and paying a non-refundable deposit of $2,200 (inc. GST). Following that, we conduct a comprehensive consultation with you to identify your budget, lifestyle, and property preferences. Using these criteria, I extract relevant suburbs. Then, we create a shortlist of your preferred target properties to present to you. Once you’ve chosen your dream home, I negotiate on your behalf and close the deal. After that, the balance is paid, and the contract goes unconditional. Let's work together on your property journey!

Question 5

How much on average does a buyer pay for the service?

Accepted Answer

Our team provides premium services at a low fixed fee by reducing overhead costs. We don't drive luxury cars, don't wear designer suits or rent a nice boutique office to impress you. We always try our best to cut the cost down and maintain the fee as low as possible. While other buyer's agents typically charge a 1-2% fee of the purchasing price or a typical range of $12,000 to $15,000, we provide affordable fixed fees starting from $4000+GST.
