M is a busy Melbourne-based doctor who, like many professionals, didn’t have the time or energy to navigate the property market alone. When she first contacted us, she was curious but hesitant. Our fee felt like a stretch, and she decided to keep looking on her own.
Fast forward 18 months.
After missing out on three properties in Armadale, Prahran and South Yarra and feeling increasingly frustrated with the process, M came back to us with a simple statement. Can you help me now? I’m tired and should have engaged you 18 months ago.
THE TURNING POINT
Once she formally engaged us, things began to shift. We inspected 13 properties together. We were close to purchasing a standout home in Hardy Street, South Yarra, just a short walk to Prahran Market and the train station. However, our due diligence uncovered significant red flags. The uncertainty was too great to ignore, and we advised M to walk away.
That decision, though difficult at the time, always turns out to be the right decision.
THE RIGHT HOME, WITHOUT THE RISKS!
Our search continued, and eventually, we found the one in Clarke Street, Prahran, a beautiful home with a spacious floor plan and a private backyard. It ticked all the boxes: walking distance to Hawksburn Village, cafes, trams, trains and Victoria Gardens.
Most importantly, our thorough due diligence revealed no red flags, providing us with peace of mind. The house had been designed by S R & O and entirely rebuilt from the front to the back by Orbis Constructions.

We attended the auction with a clear strategy in mind. The quoted range was $2,600,000–$2,800,000, and we secured the property for $2,660,000, a result our client M was thrilled with!

WHY A BUYER’S AGENT MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE
M’s journey isn’t unique. Many intelligent, high-performing professionals underestimate the complexity and emotional toll of the home-buying process. Between research, inspections, due diligence, negotiation and auction strategies, buying without professional support & guidance can cost you time, money, and missed opportunities.
