Testimonials

Exceptional, hard-working & responsive

I have dealt with many other real estate agencies as a relocation agent. I must say Lee Broughton is an exceptional, hard-working & responsive agent. I am very impressed with his communication skills. Lee has been a pleasure to work with throughout the leasing process. He responded promptly to my requests and questions without fail. He is agile and has been approachable. I will definitely use his services again and I highly recommend him.

Kept me informed every step of the way

Great experience dealing with Lauren, Will and the whole Infolio team. I have used them now as a buyers and sellers advocate and have been impressed with their professionalism and attention to detail. They kept me informed every step of the way and made the whole process painless. Highly recommend them.

Chad McKnight

Found our dream home

We were very lucky to work with Lauren and Lily at Infolio Property Advisers. Both Lauren and Lily worked tirelessly to fit within in our very tight parameters and they exceeded all expectations. With little room to move on our 'wants' as the home buyer they found our dream home which ticked every box! We can't thank the team at Infolio Property Advisers enough and we would, and already have, highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a house! Thanks very much Lauren and Lily.

Bart Calman

A brilliant outcome

As a Licensed Estate Agent and Auctioneer of many years standing, it is always a distinct pleasure meeting fellow professionals that understand how to negotiate towards a brilliant outcome for both sides of the coin. Lily Methen is a smart choice to employ for your property buying needs, as she offers discernment, and a calm decision-making process. A pleasure to work with.

Simone Chin

A long-term partnership

I've been with Infolio for years. They assisted in the buying of property which was an effortless process. Moving forward 10+years later they remain my property managers. Recently I had a change of tenants, the process was smooth, I was informed completely along the way and only took days. Thanks Kat, Lauren and the team - you're ace!

Incredible negotiation skills

We engaged Infolio to buy our dream Bayside home. Lauren and Steph were highly engaging and professional throughout the process and provided honest and valuable feedback to help us decide on the right home. When it came time to negotiate Lauren was incredible and we were delighted with the deal that was secured. Highly valuable and would recommend Infolio to others.

Elissa Ellis

Provided peace of mind

Fantastic - Tristan was amazing. We’d still be stuck going round in circles if it wasn’t for him and the team. Everything from helping us source properties to evaluating and finally negotiating and buying, he was on top of it all. Gave us huge peace of mind that we’d made the right choice and did all the hard work for us, particularly when we were struggling for time and not knowing where to start. Thanks again!!

Crawford Ross

An increidible job

Lauren and Steph at Infolio did an incredible job for us. From the minute we sat down and described what we were after, I was impressed by their professionalism, expertise and commitment. They listened, pivoted seamlessly, and went above and beyond at every step. Thank you!

Jess Fitzpatrick

Helped me buy for the long term.

I cannot recommend Tristan and Lauren highly enough. I was very confusing in my brief to them and Tristan was able to read between the lines and come back to me with multiple properties that were great options. He also kept his eye on other ones in the background, giving me updates as prices changed. He was able to think beyond the next few years and help me choose a property that my family would grow into, something I had not considered. The team make what could be a really overwhelming experience, a positive one.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a buyer's advocate?

A buyer’s advocate, or buyer’s agent, is a real estate professional hired by a prospective property buyer to research, evaluate and negotiate the purchase of a property on behalf of the buyer. Buyer’s advocates are highly skilled at asset selection, purchase strategy and negotiation. They ensure buyers don’t overpay for a property. While a real estate agent is hired to get the best price on a property for the vendor, a buyer’s agent is engaged to get the best purchase price and terms for the prospective buyer.

Is a buyer’s advocate worth it?

The longer you spend looking for an ideal property, the more property prices will go up. A buyer’s advocate or buyer’s agent in Melbourne will speed up the buying process so you can get into the property market quicker and enjoy more capital growth on your investment.

How much does a buyer’s advocate cost?

Infolio offers a complimentary 15-minute discovery call to discuss your property needs and how we can help you achieve them. If you are keen to proceed after this session, we can tailor a package specifically for your budget and needs.

Why use a buyer's advocate?

The average home buyer takes 12 months to find and purchase a property; it only takes Infolio buyer’s advocates 3 months. We speed up the process by researching and investigating which properties are perfect for you. Our Melbourne buyer’s agents & property advisors know exactly what the Melbourne market offers, and we use our access to properties currently on and off the market to find you the perfect fit.

Who should use a buyer’s advocate in Melbourne?

A buyer’s advocate is ideal for various types of property buyers, including investors, interstate or overseas buyers, and busy professionals who lack the time to navigate the Melbourne property market themselves. A buyer’s advocate can be essential when navigating the luxury home market as they can ensure buyer’s see the whole market. Anyone looking to make a well-informed property purchase can benefit from the expertise of a buyer’s agent or advocate.

How does a buyer’s advocate negotiate a better purchase price?

The best buyer’s advocates are skilled negotiators who leverage their extensive property market knowledge and relationships with selling agents to negotiate better prices. At Infolio, we go the extra mile by conducting thorough market analyses, comparing recent sales, understanding the true value of properties, getting insights into the vendor’s price expectations and maximising our networks to get the best possible deal for our clients.

What services do buyer’s agents offer?

Infolio offers a range of services tailored to different needs. With our full buying service, you merely need to supply the brief, and we’ll handle the rest. The full service includes property search, inspection, analysis report, due diligence, and negotiation. We also provide negotiation and auction bidding services. Over the years, we have refined our processes to ensure our services suit the needs of homebuyers and investors alike.

How do buyer’s agents differ from real estate agents?

A buyer’s agent works exclusively for the buyer, finding the best home or investment property at the best purchase price. In other words, they prioritise the buyer’s interests throughout the property-buying process. In contrast, a real estate agent represents the seller and aims to secure the highest possible price for the vendor.

Can a buyer’s advocate help with properties not listed on the market?

Definitely! Our buyer’s agents in Melbourne have access to off-market properties, which include apartments, houses, luxury homes, and other properties that aren’t publicly advertised. We leverage our extensive networks and relationships with real estate agents to find these exclusive opportunities, giving our clients access to properties that might not be available through traditional listing channels.

How do buyer’s advocates secure the best properties in Melbourne?

Our property advocates at Infolio utilise our decades of experience, our deep property market knowledge, extensive networks, and strategic negotiation skills to secure the best properties. We often have access to off-market properties and perform thorough research and analysis to identify properties with strong potential for capital growth.

Where do Infolio’s buyer advocates find properties?

Infolio’s buyer advocates find properties across Melbourne’s inner blue-chip suburbs, Mornington Peninsula and Central Victoria. We focus on areas with proven historical patterns of capital growth, ensuring our clients buy a house or investment property in locations with strong potential for future appreciation.

Can a buyer’s agent help with property management?

While buyer’s agents primarily focus on helping clients purchase properties, some firms, like us here at Infolio, also offer comprehensive property management services. Our property management team in Melbourne manage our rental properties, ensuring minimal vacancy rates, and maintaining the property to comply with government standards.

Can Infolio help with renovation projects?

Absolutely. At Infolio, we provide renovation consultancy services to help clients improve their properties. Our experienced consultants manage everything from minor upgrades to extensive renovations, ensuring projects are completed on time, within budget, and to a high standard.

Do you also help with selling a house?

Yes! Infolio offers vendor advocacy services to assist clients in selling their properties. Our vendor’s advocates help prepare the property for sale, educate clients on market conditions, and manage the entire selling process, including selecting the best real estate agent for the job.
