Buyer's Advocacy / Agent

Professional Buyer's Advocacy

We offer expert buyer’s advocacy services to help customers purchase investment properties with confidence. Our team identifies suitable properties, conducts thorough research, negotiates with sellers, and guides investors through the entire process to ensure maximum returns on their investment.

Property Search

Our buyer's advocacy service begins with an extensive property search. We listen carefully to our client's needs and requirements, and use our industry knowledge and network to identify suitable properties that match their criteria. This includes examining online listings, liaising with real estate agents, and conducting site inspections.

Due Diligence

Once we have shortlisted potential properties, we conduct thorough due diligence to ensure our clients are fully informed and aware of any potential risks or issues with the property. This includes researching market trends, comparable sales in the area, property inspections, and reviewing documentation such as the contract of sale, vendor's statement, and planning permits.

Negotiation and Purchase

After completing due diligence, we commence the negotiation and purchase process. Our buyer advocates are skilled negotiators and work diligently to secure the best possible outcome for our clients. We represent our clients throughout the negotiation process, handle all paperwork, and liaise with their solicitors and other professionals involved in the purchase to ensure a smooth transaction.

I had no real prior knowledge on how to enter the property market prior to meeting Trent, he has discussed everything in detail and makes the process seamless. I have worked with Trent closely since April 2022, he has provided me with resources and a strong education towards purchasing my first investment property. Trent works really closely with his clients and ensures everything will benefit the person purchasing without any stress. I would highly recommend having a call to understand your situation and see what could work for you.

I cannot recommend Trent and the Carters team any higher! I went from having absolutely no knowledge about realestate and investment properties to having a great level of understanding with Trent's guidance. Trent has helped through every step of the process from initial discussions to a finished build, holding my hand and putting up with a lot of calls and questions along the way! With Trent's guidance it made me realise how much more attainable property investing is and I honestly just wish I bit the bullet and did this years ago!

For a little less than a year now, Trent has been assisting me with my real estate investments. He has taught me how to invest wisely during this time to get the best return in the shortest amount of time. I was successful in purchasing my second property, a land house development, and I have already witnessed an increase in its value. We are now investigating how to get the third. Throughout this adventure, Trent has been extremely approachable and a great communicator while keeping a high degree of professionalism. I cannot recommend Trent highly enough and look forward to building and expanding my portfolio with his guidance in the future.

In 2022, Trent assisted me to purchase my first investment property. Trent is an excellent advisor and mentor who consistently demonstrates his technical knowledge and practical wisdom in property acquisition and investment. He analyses and explains potential investment opportunities in a sophisticated, yet easy to understand manner (with a detailed financial analysis for those interested in the numbers!) and is always available for administrative support. I have grown significantly in my confidence in approaching property investment under Trent’s tutelage.

I reached out to Trent at Carters Investments early last year for advice and help on buying my first investment property. He’s worked closely with me ever since to help find the right interstate house for me to purchase which is now beginning construction. He’s given good consultation, advice and ideas based on his own successes with property investing. Thanks for your help mate!

Trent was a great help in starting me on my own investment portfolio. He has been very thorough in the information he has provided. Trent has amazing contacts to help with purchasing a property. This made it even easier to get myself started. Would recommend to anyone looking to buy realestate as I already have with friends and family.

Our association with Trent has been extremely productive, he gave us a lot of sound advice and linked us up with builders able to offer us houses either in the later stages of being built or council approved plans, giving us a decent head-start with our investment strategy, houses we would never have found on our own. Trent has a strong network of contacts for building and finance and knows the industry well, minimising costs such as stamp duty and negotiating with builders on our behalf. 5 stars!
