What Buyers Really Need in Today’s Market

In this episode, we sit down with Dave to talk through his role in the real estate team, his experience working with buyers, and what it really takes to help people move from enquiry to settlement.

Dave shares how he works closely with buyers throughout their journey, from meeting them at open homes to understanding their goals, building trust and helping them make confident decisions. He also explains how buyer behaviour has shifted, with people taking more time, doing more due diligence and needing more guidance before making a move.

We also dive into the current state of the market, the role of auctions, the importance of strong communication, and why relationships are key when it comes to holding deals together. Dave shares a recent challenging sale, the process behind working with buyers from start to finish, and what the team expects heading into the spring and end-of-year market.
