Our 5-Step
Process

From your first conversation to settlement and beyond.

Get Started
1 - 8 weeksAverage from engagement to securing your property
  1. Free Discovery Call

    We learn about your goals, financial position, and investment timeline.

  2. Research & Strategy

    Apex scores every suburb in Australia on the fundamentals that drive long-term growth: supply constraints, infrastructure spend, population shifts, and rental demand. From there we map the markets, property types, and price points that fit your budget, your borrowing position, and your 10-year plan.

  3. Source & Shortlist

    Our nationwide network of selling agents gives you access to off-market and pre-market properties before they go public. Over 86% of our deals are off-market.

  4. Negotiate & Acquire

    We handle all inspections, due diligence, and negotiations on your behalf. Apex valuations tell us exactly what the property is worth, so we negotiate firmly on price and walk away from anything that doesn't stack up.

  5. Settlement & Ongoing Support

    Settlement is the start, not the finish. We hand you over to a vetted property manager and stay on as your long-term partner, with portfolio strategy sessions, equity and cashflow modelling, and a clear roadmap for your next move. Whenever you're weighing up a refinance, a sale, or your next purchase, you've got a team to call.

The portal behind every purchase.

Your shortlist, contracts, inspections, and settlement, all tracked in one place. A purpose-built portal every client gets from day one.

  1. Shortlist

    Every property we source gets a full brief: photos, comparable sales, yield estimates, risk flags. All in one place.

  2. Journey timeline

    See exactly which step you're up to. No more "where are we at?" emails.

  3. Document vault

    Contracts, B&P reports, pre-approvals, valuations. All organised by property and purchase stage.

  4. Portfolio performance

    Once you've settled, track your portfolio value, equity growth, yield, and cashflow over time.

Assumptions

Interest-only loan at 90% LVR, so the debt stays flat and every dollar of growth becomes equity. This shows capital growth only. It leaves out purchase costs, loan interest and holding costs, all of which are real and all of which reduce the number.

The slider starts at 6%. National dwelling values grew 5.4% a year on average over the 30 years to 2022, and houses specifically grew 5.6% (CoreLogic). That puts 6% a little above the long-run average, so drag it lower for a more conservative view. Past growth is not a forecast.

My husband and I reached out to APE to help us with our first investment property and as a first time investor I felt like I didn't have a full grasp of what this would entail, but the team at APE made it EASY! The process was so straightforward and seamless, thanks to Peter!
Cindy LorVerified Google review
After selling our Queensland investment property, we spoke with four buyers’ agents before connecting with Peter. From the first chat, he stood out as positive, realistic, and very easy to understand, with genuine passion for what he does.
Baggy AdvinculaVerified Google review
Peter helped me purchase an investment property. It was a very easy process from A to Z. He literally did all the heavy lifting and negotiating. I'm very pleased with the service, and the property has grown.
Bao VuVerified Google review
We both couldn't be happier with the professionalism of Peter's work here. Definitely recommend to others and hopefully use this service again in the near future.

Frequently Asked
Questions

A buyers agent searches, assesses and negotiates on the purchaser's behalf. The agent at the open home is not neutral; they have been hired by the owner and their commission rises with the sale price.Learn more about what a buyers agent does.

We handle the entire purchase process for you: building an investment strategy based on your goals and budget, sourcing properties (including off-market deals through our agent network), running due diligence on every shortlisted property, negotiating directly with selling agents, and coordinating through to settlement. Most clients spend 45 minutes on a strategy session, then we do the rest. See our dedicated investment property buyers agent page for the full scope.

Most investors spend 100-400 hours on a single property purchase doing it themselves, and still risk overpaying or buying in the wrong suburb. A buyers agent gives you access to off-market properties, data-backed negotiation against selling agents who do this every day, and market analysis across every state. You get your weekends back and a better result.

We're a boutique agency, so you work directly with me, Peter, the founder, and we keep our client numbers deliberately low so every purchase gets proper attention. Because we're active investors ourselves with a large portfolio, we only put forward properties we'd be happy to own, bought at a genuinely good price. And we don't disappear at settlement. Most of our clients build a portfolio over years rather than buying once, so we stay on as your partner for the next purchase and the one after that. Investment only, no developer commissions.

It starts with a 15-minute call where we understand your goals, budget, and timeline. From there, we build a strategy using Apex (our property intelligence platform), source properties across our nationwide agent network, run full due diligence on every shortlisted property, negotiate the purchase, and support you through to settlement. On average, clients secure a property 1 to 8 weeks after engaging us.

We charge a clear flat fee, not a percentage of the purchase price. This means we're never incentivised to push you toward a more expensive property. Our fee covers the full service from strategy through to settlement. Better negotiation and off-market access can save more than our fee, and we can walk you through recent examples on the call. For the full industry breakdown see our buyers agent fees guide.

Every state, across both capital-city and regional markets. Where we buy for you depends on your budget and strategy, not our postcode. If you're starting locally, see our Sydney buyers agent page, or browse every market we cover on our locations page.
