Question 1

What does a buyer’s agency do in Sydney?

Accepted Answer

A buyer’s agency works exclusively for the buyer. YOURS. helps shape the brief, search for suitable property, inspect and assess opportunities, coordinate due diligence, analyse value, negotiate with selling agencies and support the purchase through to settlement.

Question 2

Why use a local Inner West buyer’s agency?

Accepted Answer

Sydney’s Inner West is made up of tightly held micro-markets where street position, heritage controls, aircraft noise, parking, aspect and even the side of a suburb can materially affect a property. Local relationships and street-level knowledge help buyers judge opportunities more clearly and move decisively when the right home appears.

Question 3

Which Inner West suburbs does YOURS. Agency cover?

Accepted Answer

Our strongest local network spans Balmain, Rozelle, Lilyfield, Birchgrove, Annandale, Leichhardt, Five Dock, Abbotsford, Chiswick, Wareemba and Drummoyne, with coverage extending through Petersham, Stanmore, Summer Hill, Dulwich Hill, Marrickville, Newtown, Enmore and greater Sydney.

Question 4

Can a buyer’s agent help if I have already found a property?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our evaluate and negotiate service is designed for buyers who have already found a property but want independent assessment, due diligence coordination, a clear value position and a disciplined negotiation or auction strategy before committing.

Question 5

Can YOURS. help with off-market properties?

Accepted Answer

Yes, where suitable opportunities are available. Genuine relationships with local selling agencies can create access to pre-market and off-market conversations, but every property is still assessed against your brief, budget and risk profile rather than pursued simply because it is not publicly advertised.

Question 6

Do you help first home buyers, investors and expats?

Accepted Answer

Yes. YOURS. represents owner occupiers, first home buyers, investors and Australians living abroad. The strategy changes with the client, but the standard stays the same: independent advice, careful assessment and representation that remains firmly on the buyer’s side.

Question 7

How much does a buyer’s agency cost?

Accepted Answer

Buyer’s agency fees vary by service and purchase budget. YOURS. uses a clear fixed-fee structure for full search clients, with the professional fee and engagement amount explained before an agreement is signed. A separate negotiation-only service is available when you have already found the property.

Question 8

Is using a buyer’s agency worth it?

Accepted Answer

That depends on the support you need. Buyers commonly engage an advocate for time savings, independent value analysis, local access, due diligence coordination and stronger negotiation discipline. The goal is not to push you into a purchase—it is to help you make a better-informed one.
