TYPES OF PROPERTY WE BUY
BUILDUP BUYERS AGENTS
STANDARD BUYERS AGENT
We have a strong focus on buying established properties, which are primarily houses with high land value, or boutique units/townhouses in small blocks.
We focus on properties that have a high owner occupied appeal, and have strong value add potential for the future.
Brand new house & land package properties which have a low land value, or high/medium density off the plan apartments or townhouses in large developments. Most of these properties have a high saturation of property investors and not many owner occupiers.
LOCATIONS WE BUY IN
BUILDUP BUYERS AGENTS
STANDARD BUYERS AGENT
Established locations that have a strong track record of high historical capital growth levels. Locations that are land locked, have a very tight demand to supply ratio in the areas, and are highly desirable for owner occupiers to live.
Brand new areas that have not performed well over time, and are highly saturated by investors. Usually new housing estates or areas that have lots of planned development infrastructure spending... which can take years to have ripple effect growth.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
BUILDUP BUYERS AGENTS
STANDARD BUYERS AGENT

HEAR FROM SOME OF OUR CLIENTS
Brett Boyle
This was my first time using a Buyers Agent and was really happy with the outcome. The team were able to secure me a property that had the ability to build a granny flat on, which was exactly what I was after. Very professional & answered any questions I had along the way, would recommend to anyone.
Thomas Lewinski
Would highly recommend. My partner and I had such a great experience using Buildup for our first investment property purchase in QLD. The whole Buildup team were highly experienced, knowledgeable and professional. They took care of the whole process from start to finish.
Sally Pearce
As a time poor professional I always like to outsource to experts where I can. The guys at buildup did an amazing job in finding me an investment property that fit my criteria. They kept me updated throughout the whole process and were always available to answer any questions I had.
FEE STRUCTURE
We charge a flat upfront fee - that does not change depending on the type of property we buy or the value.
Usually will be paid large commissions from builders & developers from selling their stock.

A Full service Buyers Agent finds, secures and negotiates a property on behalf of the purchaser and coordinates all parties involved.
How much does a Buyers Agent cost?
We charge a flat fee or a % based model upon the purchase of the property. It typically costs between $13,900 - $16,900 inc GST, depending on the type of the service you are looking for.
Why use a Buyers Agent?
Our clients see value in our services in three main areas:
​
1. Professional negotiation & industry experience
A professional negotiator can often negotiate a better discount than our fee alone, with the added benefit of more favorable terms. Most people go through the process of buying 2 -3 properties over their. lifetime. This is our area of expertise, our team does this all day every day.
​
2. Access to extensive property research and data trend analysis.
Using smart technology and a large investment in the most current property data trends, we are able to identify high performance locations and time our entry into these markets better. For example, if we can select a property that achieves only 1% more in capital growth per annum on a $500,000 property (i.e 7% vs 6% cap growth). This would lead to a increase gain of more than $567,000 over a 25 year period. (This is 44 times more than our average fee!)
​
3. Access to off-market and pre-market properties.
We have an extensive network of contacts Australia wide, which gives us access to off-market & pre-market properties that an average buyer would not have access to.
How much of a deposit do I need?
The total deposit required will change depending on the value on the property that you are looking to purchase, and your financial situation. As a guide, you would need to have approx $60,000 in savings or equity available in a property to get started.
Where do you buy properties?
We are different to your typical Buyers Agent who only buys properties in their local area. We take a data driven approach to property investing. We look at a combination of broader macro & micro economic trends, backed up by specific on the ground research. This allows us to enter markets that have the best capital growth & rental yield prospects around Australia. One of the keys to building a multi-property portfolio is been able to diversify across multiple states to achieve maximum growth, whilst minimising risk.
How to build a large property portfolio?
