FAQs

What is a buyer's agent?

A buyer’s agent – also known as a buyer’s advocate – is a licensed real estate professional who specialises in sourcing, evaluating and negotiating the purchase of a property on behalf of the buyer.

A buyer’s agent is effectively a buyer-only real estate agent, working exclusively for the buyer and helping them to navigate through the purchase process.

What does a buyer’s agent do?

A buyer’s agent represents the interests of the buyer throughout the purchasing process.

With in-depth local insights and professional expertise, they help to identify suitable properties, arrange inspections and provide informed advice on pricing and local market conditions.

Acting on your behalf, they negotiate with the seller or selling agent to secure the best possible price and contract terms.

From conducting due diligence, to managing contracts and settlement paperwork, a buyer’s agent guides you through every stage of the transaction, to ensure a smooth and confident purchase.

Why use a buyer’s agent in Perth?

A property buyer’s agent provides expert advice and market insights – saving buyers time, stress, and potentially money. Ultimately, their expertise helps to reduce risks.

Engaging a local buyer’s agent in Perth offers an added advantage. A Perth-based expert has extensive knowledge of local suburbs, school zones, infrastructure projects, and current market trends. They understand which areas are growing, which streets attract premium prices, and where hidden opportunities may exist.

With established relationships in the local industry and access to off-market properties, a Perth buyer’s agent can offer insights and opportunities that agents from outside the area may not be able to.

How do buyer’s agents get paid?

Buyer’s agents are paid by the buyer; they do not get paid by the seller. This ensures their advice and negotiations are fully aligned with the buyer’s interests.

Do buyer agents get commission? Some agents charge a commission based on the purchase price of the property, while others charge a flat fee.

How much does a buyer's agent cost in Perth?

Buyer’s agent fees in Perth can vary considerably.

While some buyer’s agents will charge on a percentage commission (whereby they are paid more if you pay a higher price for the property), at Momentum Wealth, we work on a fixed fee agreement based on your purchase criteria and objectives, with the majority of the fee not payable until settlement.

As your advocate, we represent you and work in your best interests throughout the process.

Do I need a buyer’s agent to buy a house?

No, you don’t need a buyer’s agent to buy a house.

If you’re willing to invest the time in thorough due diligence and are able to handle the negotiations and paperwork yourself, you can certainly buy a house on your own.

However, a buyer’s agent can save you time and help prevent costly mistakes.

Do buyer's agents need a license in WA?

Yes, in Australia, buyer’s agents must hold a valid real estate license in the state or territory where they operate.

Licensing ensures they meet professional standards and are legally authorised to provide property advice, negotiate on behalf of buyers, and handle transactions.

At Momentum Wealth, our Buyer’s Agency and Seller’s Advocacy services are provided by Momentum Wealth Property Advisory Pty Ltd. ABN 61 621 540 574. Our Real Estate and Business Agent and license number in WA is RA82976.

Do you only work with investors?

Not at all – whether you’re looking for a first home buyer’s agent, a luxury home buyer’s agent, or an investment property buyer’s agent, we can assist you.

Our team of professional buyer’s agents have worked with a range of budgets and search criteria, securing properties both on the lower end of the scale and in the premium segment of Perth’s property market.

We’re happy to discuss the different aspects of our service that may be suited to you based on your individual circumstances.

Do you only buy in Perth?

Our buyer’s agents operate in Western Australia and predominantly specialise in Perth property acquisitions. However, we also work with a trusted network of interstate buyer’s agents and a national property research house to look after our clients who are considering an interstate property purchase.

Our meticulous approach, intricate knowledge and exclusive network make us one of the leading buyer’s agents in Australia.

I want to develop a property - can you help?

Yes. Our in-house experts are highly experienced in the research and due diligence of residential developments.

Combining decades of industry experience, we’ll investigate the feasibility of your proposed property development – ensuring your project meets your long-term investment objectives.

Do you offer support after a property purchase?

Our property services aren’t just transactional – we understand that building a successful property portfolio requires a long-term, holistic approach which extends far beyond the initial purchase.

While our property managers work with our owners on an ongoing basis to maximise their portfolios’ potential through proactive value-adding and risk mitigation strategies, our buyer’s agents are consistently monitoring the market to keep our clients informed on updates such as changes to zoning, market trends and local government planning updates to help clients make the right long-term decisions for their property portfolio.

I've already chosen a property to buy - can you help me?

Absolutely. We have a range of services to help property buyers who already have a property in mind.

Our pre-purchase Property Check service can identify any deal-breakers and give you a price range for your negotiation. For buyers who have already selected a property to purchase, we can represent you in the negotiation through our “Negotiation and Due Diligence” service, ensuring you achieve the best possible price and contract terms.

What is a buyer’s advocate?

A ‘buyer advocate’ is another term for a ‘buyer agent’ – they are one and the same.

They represent the property buyer’s interests throughout the acquisition process, offering expert guidance, market insights and support with negotiation and settlement.

What’s the difference between a buyer’s agent and a real estate agent?

A buyer’s agent works exclusively for the property buyer, whereas a traditional real estate agent (or ‘seller’s agent’) represents the seller and is focused on achieving the highest possible price for their client.

Are buyer’s agents worth it?

For many buyers, a buyer’s agent realtor can prove a valuable investment. They bring expert market insights, local area knowledge, strong negotiation skills, and access to off-market properties.

The main benefits of using a buyer’s agent are that they can save you time, reduce your stress, and can help you secure the right property at the right price.

By acting solely in your best interests, buyer agents can help prevent costly mistakes and help you make more informed decisions throughout the acquisition process.

However, it’s important to do your research to ensure you engage a reputable company with a proven track record.

What are the key questions to ask a buyer’s agent?

Before engaging a real estate buyer’s advocate, it’s important to ensure they’re the right fit for you.

Here are some key questions to ask:

  1. What experience do you have in the areas I’m looking to buy in?
  2. What’s included in your service, and how do you keep me informed throughout the process?
  3. What is your fee structure?
  4. Do you receive any commissions from sellers or other parties?
  5. Can you access off-market properties?
  6. How do you approach property evaluation and negotiation?
  7. Can you provide references or examples of past clients you’ve helped?
