Question 1

What does a buyers advocate do?

Accepted Answer

A buyers advocate works exclusively for you, the buyer—not the seller. We search for properties (including off-market opportunities), conduct due diligence, negotiate on your behalf, and guide you through to settlement. Unlike selling agents who represent the vendor's interests, we ensure you get the best possible outcome.

Question 2

How much does a buyers advocate cost in Brisbane?

Accepted Answer

Fees vary based on the service package. Most buyers advocates charge either a fixed fee or a percentage of the purchase price (typically 1-2%). At Joanna Boyd Buyers Advocate, we offer transparent pricing with packages starting from $5,500 for negotiation-only services. Book a free consultation to discuss your specific needs.

Question 3

Is using a buyers advocate worth it?

Accepted Answer

For most buyers, yes. Our clients typically save 3-7% on purchase price through expert negotiation—far exceeding our fees. Beyond savings, we save you time, reduce stress, and provide access to off-market properties you'd never find on your own. Our 98% success rate speaks to the value we deliver.

Question 4

What suburbs in Brisbane does Joanna Boyd cover?

Accepted Answer

We specialise in Brisbane's inner-city and prestige suburbs including New Farm, Paddington, Teneriffe, Ascot, Hamilton, Bulimba, Hawthorne, and surrounding areas. We also assist clients across the Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, and regional Queensland for the right properties.
