EXCELLENT Based on 333 reviews Posted on Niz YesilovaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A couple of years ago, my mortgage broker highly recommended that I meet with Simon Loo and the HouseFinder team. From our first meeting, I've always appreciated Simon's clear, frank & honest advice, it has been rewarding. Since then, I've purchased a few investment properties with the HF team and have more in the pipeline. The team has done a great job in identifying acquisition opportunities with the settlement price below the market value, whilst also appreciating in value quite rapidly. The process has been smooth and interactive from the outset through to settlement. Ben and Kevin for instance were helpful in addressing my numerous queries on potential acquisition opportunities and providing confidence in my investment decisions. For one one of my investments, they were able to negotiate the price down. Audrey has also been great on the operational side with the inspections and the nitty gritty of the purchasing process. Thanks to Simon and the HF team, it has been great.Posted on Tabassum MuntarimTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend!

The leading Buyers Agent
When you are navigating a competitive real estate environment, accessing private sales can make a significant difference to your bottom line.
Without public exposure, you compete with fewer buyers. This limited visibility means no crowded open homes or intense bidding wars, giving you the space to make rational, data-driven investment decisions.
Since these private sales avoid the pressure of public auctions, they are often priced more strategically. Sellers may prioritise a fast, quiet settlement over a maximum price. This dynamic creates an environment where skilled negotiators can secure real estate 5–15% below the suburb median.
With fewer parties involved, buyers have more room to propose tailored offers. Whether you need a flexible settlement period or specific contract conditions, private transactions provide a more workable negotiation framework.
Up to 20% of Australian real estate transactions occur privately. By limiting your search to major online portals, you miss out on a massive segment of the market. Tapping into off the market homes for sale gives you a distinct first-mover advantage.
Finding you the best deals
You might be wondering, what is off market properties exactly? Put simply, these are assets available for sale that are not publicly advertised. You will not find them listed on major online portals, and you will not see a “For Sale” sign on the front lawn.
Instead, these homes are sold privately. Selling agents use their personal networks, database of qualified buyers, or trusted buyers’ agents to match the home with the right investor.
Vendors choose this route for a variety of practical reasons. High-profile individuals may prefer privacy, while others might value the speed of a transaction without the hassle of a 90-day public marketing campaign. For strategic investors, understanding how to buy off market property is like knowing the password to an exclusive club.

Frequently asked questions
These are homes that are for sale but are not advertised to the general public. They are not listed on popular real estate websites and are instead sold quietly through an agent’s private network of contacts and buyers’ agents.
Finding these private sales relies heavily on industry relationships. Selling agents share these unadvertised listings with trusted buyers’ agents who have qualified, ready-to-act clients. Partnering with a professional buyers’ agent is the most effective way to gain access to this hidden inventory.
Not automatically. While reduced competition and specific vendor motivations (such as a need for a fast settlement) can result in purchasing below market value, it still requires thorough comparable sales analysis and strong negotiation to secure a favourable price.
Vendors opt for private sales for several reasons, including a desire for privacy, a need for a rapid transaction without waiting for a full public campaign, or simply to save money on expensive marketing and styling fees.
The key to a safe purchase is independent due diligence. Just because a home is not publicly listed does not mean you skip standard checks. You must still conduct building and pest inspections, review strata reports, and analyse recent suburb sales data to verify the asking price.
