The price
What you pay, worked out for your purchase
Pick your price range or type your budget. You see the fee, the retainer and every way to pay, straight away. All prices include GST.
What do you expect to pay for the property?
Your fee: $14,000 0.93% of the price, GST included. If you buy for more or less, it’s worked out again on the price you actually pay.
No interest while we search, and the first 3 months are interest-free. After you buy, interest is charged on what’s still owing, nothing more. Pay it off at any time and the interest stops: you just pay what’s left of the fee.
Included
- Your own buyers agent · One person from start to finish.
- Strategy session and 20-year plan · Where this property fits in your bigger plan.
- Investment property data · Growth, rent and supply data for every area we test.

- Monthly payments start a month after you sign, worked out on your estimated price, with no interest while we search, however long it takes.
- When you buy, the fee is worked out again on the price you actually pay. Paid too much? We refund it.
- After you buy, interest (0.5% a month) is charged on what’s still owing. Pay it off at any time and the interest stops.

Payment plans
Pay your buyers agent fee monthly, not all at once
A buyers agent fee usually falls due at settlement, right when your deposit, stamp duty and loan costs land. We let you spread it. You start with a retainer from $1,000, which comes off your fee, then choose how to pay the rest.
- Pay at settlement
Nothing more until you buy. The balance is paid at settlement, with nothing added.
- 3 months, interest-free
Split the balance into three monthly payments, with no interest at any point.
- 12, 24 or 36 months
Smaller monthly payments. No interest while we search, and the first 3 months are interest-free. After you buy, 0.5% a month applies to what is still owing.
- Pay it off early, any time
Clear the balance whenever you like and the interest stops. You pay what is left of the fee.
- Worked out on the price you pay
Payments start on your estimated price. When you buy, the fee is worked out again on the actual price, and anything paid over is refunded.
- More of your savings for the deposit
Spreading the fee keeps more of your cash for the deposit and buying costs, which is where it counts.
Illustrative example: on a $750,000 purchase our fee is $12,000, GST included. After a $1,000 retainer you could pay the $11,000 balance at settlement, as $3,666.67 a month for 3 months with no interest, or from $458.33 a month on the 24-month plan.

I’ve bought two properties through Scott and both have been excellent buys. He found great value in strong locations, and the growth has been solid. Because of the results from those first two, I’m now in a position to buy another two investment properties and I’ll definitely be using Scott again.

Scott has been awesome throughout my journey. We bought our first investment property with Scott’s help and professional guidance. Would recommend him to any new buyers looking to kick start their investment portfolio.
