As longtime buyer’s agents in Melbourne, the team at Cohen Handler can offer you expertise and local knowledge of the Melbourne property market. If you’re looking for a home or investment property in Melbourne, we’ll be able to help you find the perfect property for your requirements at the right price. 

How a buyer’s agent can help you 

A buyer’s agent serves several different functions for a property seeker. First and foremost, they’re familiar with the local property market. They’re aware of the ebbs and flows, future development planning, the best suburbs and all of the great places where value can be found.

That’s why when you’re looking to move to or invest in Melbourne, a buyer’s agent is invaluable. If you’re not already familiar with the area from personal experience — and even if you are — they can help you find a property that’s appropriate for your needs, saving you considerable time in the process. They can also help you avoid a dud purchase by providing you with advice around the market, the nature of the property and the surrounding area.

Additionally, when you’re trying to buy a property, you need to deal with a seller’s agent working on behalf of the selling party. This might be the estate agent or another third party, but the result is much the same — they’re working at an advantage to negotiate to achieve the best deal for their client. But by working with a property buyer’s agent in Melbourne, you’ll have an advocate on your side. They’re able to work on your behalf to negotiate better deals with seller’s agents and to ensure that you’re getting the best possible deal.

As buyer’s agents in Melbourne, we’re on your side from day one, advocating to find you the best possible property for your needs and then working to secure you the best possible deal on it. We establish long-term relationships with our clients, working collaboratively with them as they move across multiple homes or continue building their property portfolio over the years to come. 

We offer a wide range of services to our clients, including:

  • Independent advice 
    As our client, you are our first and foremost priority. Accordingly, we can provide you with third-party advice that is unbiased and relevant to your specific circumstances. We want to ensure that you get the best possible deal and that the property exchange is worked to your satisfaction and favour. 
  • Finding the right property 
    Why waste your time scouring the internet and attending open houses fruitlessly? When you engage with Cohen Handler, your property buyer’s agent in Melbourne will be able to perform the search for your next property on your behalf. Simply provide us with the requirements for the prospective property, and our team will compile a shortlist of prospective properties that meet your needs. It doesn’t matter if you’re located overseas or interstate — we regularly provide services for people looking to relocate to Melbourne or want to invest in the local property market. It’s an effective way to minimise any search or travel time at your end. Let us take care of the entire process for you, from start to finish.  
  • Ensuring you don’t overpay 
    You need a property buyer’s agent in Melbourne who is an expert in all of the local sales trends and can ensure that you’re paying fairly for your dream property. We’re able to perform appropriate valuations, as well as negotiate with the seller’s agent to provide you with a property that suits your budget and does not exceed your allocated limit.
  • Due diligence 
    Your property agent can arrange all required and relevant inspections for your potential new property. Building inspections, pest inspections and any other inspections required — for example, by contractors if renovations are planned post-purchase — can be arranged to be carried out by our team. We also have a network of trusted inspectors who can carry out these inspections, which helps ensure that the work is being carried out to the appropriate standards. 
  • Contract management and paperwork 
    Australian property transactions are often quite complex, involving large amounts of paperwork and complex details that must be filed appropriately. Additionally, the contract itself is a critical part of the buying process. We will work with you to ensure that all appropriate paperwork is filed and that the relevant financial clauses, settlement times, and other factors are managed to your satisfaction.
