  We had absolutely the best experience recently using Elite Buyer Agents for our purchase in VIC from interstate. Lisa was very approachable, professional and thorough throughout the whole process. Her advice was very valuable and she was always available to answer all of our questions and we had many of them. Tia was also super prompt and kept us updated the whole time. We believe we managed to secure a quality property thanks to Lisa's extensive knowledge of the market and her real estate experience. We would recommend Elite Buyer Agents 100%. Many thanks!

  I recently engaged Kim to assist with purchasing a property at auction, and the experience was outstanding. Hermarket knowledge, calm strategy, and confident bidding made the entire process smooth and stress‑free. She took the time to understand exactly what I wanted, provided clear guidance throughout, and ultimately secured the property at a price I was very happy with. I couldn’t be more pleased with the result and highly recommend her services to anyone navigating the competitive Melbourne auction scene.

  Kim was excellent - it took a couple of months and then she came through with the goods. A house that ticked all our boxes, right before it went online and launched into its campaign. It's a long term house for us, fantastic result. Kim's communication was great, she viewed properties on our behalf when we couldn't make it and helped through the whole process once offer was accepted. Trust the process and enjoy the ride!

  We couldn’t imagine going through this journey without Dave and the EBA team. We were introduced to Dave through a friend he had previously helped secure their property, and now we completely understand why he came so highly recommended. As first-home buyers, his guidance and experience were invaluable. Our journey took about a year because it included a four-month pause due to a government regulation change affecting PR buyers. Dave was incredibly understanding during this time and didn’t impose any additional fees despite the delay. Throughout the process we were also deciding between buying a ready-to-move-in home or an older property for a knockdown rebuild. Dave was patient while we worked through our options and shared insights that we simply wouldn’t have known ourselves, which likely saved us from costly mistakes. He also handled the auction bidding with a clear strategy that only an experienced professional would know. We’re so grateful for his help in securing our first home in Mount Waverley. If we ever buy again in the future, we would absolutely work with Dave again — worth every dollar.

  Very happy with the level of service and expertise. David had a way of presenting and explaining the information and his thoughts on potential properties that allowed us to move quickly and hassle free from the outset. We would highly recommend Elite Buyer Agents!

  We had a great experience with David and Vicky on our first investment property in VIC. I was referred to this company by a friend, who said they had received a lot of positive feedback across Australia. Vicky was very supportive and professional, and she provided great off-market opportunities. She did a great job and helped us find a very good property within a very short period of time. We look forward to working with them again.

  Lisa O'Connor is my fairy godmother. Whilst I was overseas, she gave me all the information I needed to make informed decisions, provided reassurance that everything was covered off and, most importantly, made sure I had peace of mind when I didn't have the time or energy to do any of the necessary work myself. If I had been in the country, I doubt I would have considered engaging Lisa as my agent. However, that would have been a mistake as I would definitely have missed out. It's not just the assistance with the process, it's Lisa's inside knowledge and contacts. Well worth it. Thanks!

Frequently asked questions

What is a buyer’s agent (Buyer’s advocate)?

A buyer’s agent (also known as a buyer’s advocate) is a licensed real estate professional who works exclusively for the buyer. Just like a selling agent works on behalf of the seller. A buyer’s advocate can add a lot of value to a buyer by assisting in searching for suitable properties, either being on market and off market, inspecting properties and providing valuable feedback about the suitability of the property, assessing and evaluating properties and negotiating the purchase of the property. A buyer’s agent works solely for the buyer’s best interests.

How can a property buyer’s agent (Buyer’s advocate) help me?
