Hello First Home Buyer
Our first home-ready service was designed to make your first property purchase experience easy, seamless and stress-free, and to give you an unfair advantage over other buyers. As the go-to experts in Canberra real estate, our expertise will help you successfully secure your first property.
What’s Included:
- Gain step-by-step insights into purchasing real estate in the ACT through our Q+A masterclass. From search to settlement, we explain typical timelines and expectations for each stage as we explore the various sale methods and teach you effective strategies for attending open homes to best utilise your time. You will develop skills to interpret contract details, clauses, terms and conditions, ensuring informed decision-making.
- Discover your perfect property with our expert guidance. Our buyer's blueprint meeting will help you define what you’re looking for so we can find the ideal property match for you.
- Buying a home is overwhelming, but we have made it fun, easy, simple and more manageable with our innovative client portal, which we affectionately call Betty. With everything in one place, you’re always in the loop 24/7. You can see curated property lists that you can rate, see property documents and videos, ask questions and make decisions with all the info you need right at your fingertips.
- While you inspect your favourite properties from Betty, we handle the crucial due diligence in the background on the ones you love. This includes contract and building report reviews and pricing analysis to help you make informed decisions for when we jump back in to handle the negotiations and/or auction bidding on your behalf.
- We wrap up this service with a pre-exchange inspection conducted on your behalf to ensure that the property exchanges successfully.
