Why Use an Advocate?

Representation

The Time Poor

It’s a busy life and with the pressures of business, enjoying your family and maintaining your own interests, there’s never enough time. We perform all the time consuming activities associated with property acquisition.

Those That Don’t Like Dealing with Agents

Some people would prefer not to deal with real estate sales agents for whatever the reason. Perhaps they wish to retain anonymity or they don’t like the hard sell. We have contacts up and down the peninsula and we know the tactics.

The Emotional Purchaser

Becoming emotional or lacking the poker face when purchasing property can cost you thousands. If you want to secure that ideal property and save money in the process, using MPBA will ensure the emotion is removed.

Those Lacking Local Knowledge

Knowledge is power. So many factors need to be considered relative to a property such as values and amenity of the area. Localised buyer advocates are like local real estate sales agents – they know their areas. The difference is who they represent.

Interstate & Overseas Buyers

We cater for interstate clients. We also cater for overseas clients provided Foreign Investment Review Board guidelines and eligibility criteria are met. For a detailed explanation of the requirements, visit www.firb.gov.au

Why MPBA?

WE ARE PROFESSIONAL
WE HAVE THAT IMPERATIVE LOCAL KNOWLEDGE
WE HAVE EXPERTISE IN SOURCING PROPERTY
WE HAVE EXCEPTIONAL NEGOTIATION SKILLS
WE HAVE EXTENSIVE CONTACTS INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE INDUSTRY.

In considering the use of a Buyer Advocate / Buyer Agent / Purchasing Consultant, ask yourself the following questions:

Does that business or individual hold an Estate Agents Licence?
Check www.bla.vic.gov.au
Do they hold Professional Indemnity Insurance?
Sight a Certificate of Currency of insurance.
Are they a member of the industry body, The Real Estate Institute of Victoria?
Check www.reiv.com.au
Does your prospective advocate REALLY know the peninsula?

MPBA ticks all the boxes

If an advocacy service can’t satisfy these requirements, the consequences for you could be dire. Don’t risk it.

MPBA was established in 2008 with the specific intention of servicing purely the needs of buyers.

With the ever expanding professionalism of the industry, it is becoming more difficult for most buyers to execute strategies to minimise the amount they pay for property.

MPBA and other properly licensed advocacy services have emerged to level the playing field.
