No. More than half of what we buy is off-market, but the other half is on market or has sold at auction. The market status has little to do with the quality of buying.
There are properties where the vendors definitely intend to bring them online to maximise their sale price.
The point of working with a buyers agent is to see as much of the market as possible, then filter the best options from there. Just because a property is on market doesn’t mean it isn’t the best buy for you. You need solid due diligence to be confident, and a strategy to get it for the best price.
A quick call to help us understand what has been holding you back from making the purchase, and to break down whether we can truly help.
