Question 1

What is a Buyers Agent? What is an Exclusive Buyers Agent?

Accepted Answer

A real estate ‘buyers agent’, also described as a 'buyers advocate' or 'buyers broker', is an agent who acts on behalf of a buyer to purchase real estate. 
Exclusive buyers agents are fully licensed and insured real estate agents who act exclusively on behalf of buyers to purchase property. They do not ‘conjunct’, do ‘conjunctional sales’ or partner in any financial way with sales agents.

Question 2

Why use a Buyers Agent?

Accepted Answer

A number of barriers either stop many prospective home or investment property buyers in their tracks, or prevent them from ever getting started. 
Having an exclusive buyers agent on your side can save you time, money and stress. But do be aware that not all so-called buyers agents are the same, and you will need to check that they truly are exclusive and independent.

Question 3

I’m relocating to Cairns from interstate — can a buyer’s agent help me remotely?

Accepted Answer

I specialise in helping buyers relocating from interstate to Cairns. With 20+ personal relocations myself, I understand the challenges of moving sight unseen. I provide suburb overviews, video walk-throughs, market analysis, and guidance at every step so you can make informed decisions without needing to be physically present. I aim to make relocating to Cairns as stress-free as possible.

Question 4

How do you help buyers choose between suburbs in Cairns when they’ve never visited?

Accepted Answer

Choosing the right suburb remotely can be daunting, but my deep local knowledge of Cairns helps bridge that gap. I provide insights into lifestyle, schools, infrastructure, and microclimates, along with investment potential. My lived experience in Cairns, combined with long-standing networks and personal investment history, allows me to guide buyers to suburbs that truly fit their goals.

Question 5

How do you handle inspections, due diligence, and negotiations if I’m interstate?

Accepted Answer

I coordinate remote inspections via detailed video walkthroughs and provide thorough market analysis to support your decision-making. Negotiations are handled strategically, with a focus on achieving the best outcome for you. My approach combines evidence-based research, local insight, and practical experience from decades of living and buying in Cairns.

Question 6

How do I know you are truly independent and not influenced by sellers?

Accepted Answer

I have represented only buyers since 2013, and I never accept paid referrals or work with selling agencies. My loyalty is entirely to you. This independence ensures that my guidance is honest, transparent, and aligned with your interests, protecting you from conflicts of interest common in the market.

Question 7

What should I watch out for when choosing a buyer’s agent in Cairns?

Accepted Answer

Be cautious of agents tied to selling agencies, developers, or those who accept referral payments — their advice may be compromised. I operate fully independently, representing only buyers since 2013. My focus is transparency and integrity, so you can trust my recommendations without worrying about conflicts of interest.

Question 8

Why do some agents advertise ‘off-market deals’ — is that always a good thing?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily. Some off-market listings are genuine opportunities, while others are a way to test the market quietly. I evaluate each property carefully, drawing on local networks and market insight, to ensure you only consider off-market opportunities that are truly suitable for your goals.

Question 9

What makes your relocation expertise different from other buyer’s agents?

Accepted Answer

I’ve personally relocated over 20 times, living internationally and across North Queensland. This experience, combined with decades of local investment in both Cairns and Townsville, gives me unique insight into the challenges of moving interstate and selecting the right property. My guidance is grounded in real-world experience and deep empathy for relocating buyers.
