Fees 


Our Buyers Agent Discounted Fees are Flexible and CompetitiveOur competitive Buyers Advocate fees are structured to save you money. We offer:

  • Discounts for prompt payment
  • A fee cap to make sure that the service fee remains great value – regardless of the price you pay for your property
  • The option of an agreed fixed price


At SNAP, our Buyers Advocate fees are as simple as ABC.

Type Description Fee
A. Initial Consultation An initial consultation and needs assessment is provided free of charge. We can meet with you at work, at home, or any place in between. FREE
B. Up Front Engagement If you decide to secure our services, an up front engagement fee is payable at the time of signing our services agreement.

$1000
(inc. GST)

C. Service Fees

Our competitive service fee is linked to the price of the property
(or can be replaced by a fixed price fee if you prefer).

Simply choose one of the following service options:

SEARCH – The ‘Search’ service includes a detailed analysis of your property goals and purchase criteria, followed by a comprehensive property search in your target area(s). Short-listed properties will be presented to you and made available for inspection to enable the selection of a candidate for negotiation. 1.1% of the property purchase price (payable at exchange of contracts)
(inc. GST)
NEGOTIATE – The ‘Negotiate’ service includes a thorough assessment of your selected property – comparing it to other similar properties for sale / recently sold. Armed with this information we agree a target price range and your SNAP Buyers Advocate then proceeds to negotiate the optimum purchase price and conditions. 1.1% of the property purchase price (payable at exchange of contracts)
(inc. GST)
PURCHASE – The ‘Purchase’ service includes the selection and efficient coordination of professional property purchase specialists including accountant, mortgage broker, solicitor / conveyancer, insurance broker, pest inspector, building inspector, valuer and (for investors) the quantity surveyor and property manager(s).
Also included is assistance in planning for key pre and post-purchase property costs (enabling you to arrive at a total cost of ownership).
1.1% of the property purchase price (payable when the contract for the property purchase is unconditional)
(inc. GST)
OR

SNAP (Search Negotiate And Purchase) – Our premium (and most popular) package – includes all three Buyers Advocate services above, but at a discounted price. The SNAP service provides complete (end-to-end) management of the process of securing your property and includes all elements of the ‘Search’, ‘Negotiate’ and ‘Purchase’ services – linking them seamlessly together to make buying your property a SNAP.

2.2% of the property purchase price (payable when the contract for the property purchase is unconditional)
(inc. GST)

All fees are INCLUSIVE of GST


Discounts

As a thank you for paying your fees promptly – all Buyers Advocate fees paid within 14 days of their due date will automatically be discounted by 15% of the fee amount.

Example

For a property purchase of $400,000 the fees are as follows:

Engagement Fee: $1000 less 15% discount = $850
PLUS

Services Fee: $400,000 x 2.2% = $8,800 less 15% discount = $7480
EQUALS
TOTAL FEES: $850 + $7,480 = $8,330


Caps

Our Buyers Advocate Service fees are capped for properties in excess of $800,000 (eg. $1million property service fee is the same as $800,000 service fee). No matter what – you won’t pay more than this capped amount for your service fee.

 

Specialised Services

At SNAP - we understand that every purchase and every client is unique. With this in mind, we are open to negotiation on sub-components of our Search, Negotiate & Purchase offerings. Together - we can tailor a service that suits your specific needs.
