Forever Home · Gold Coast & Northern Rivers
Houses, apartments, townhouses, acreage or a development site — buying anywhere from Coolangatta to Coomera, or across the border into Tweed Heads and the Northern Rivers? I'm your independent buyer's agent on the ground: one flat fee, no developer or selling-agent commissions, and a Class 1 Real Estate Agent & Auctioneer's licence since 2015.
Buying from afar
Relocating for lifestyle, work, or family, and can't be here every weekend to inspect? I walk every serious property myself, before it ever reaches your shortlist.
You get a local advocate who knows the streets, the schools, the traffic patterns and the difference between a good buy and a good listing photo — without booking a single flight.
FIRB guidance where relevant, remote-friendly process end to end, and communication scheduled around your time zone — so distance never costs you the right home.
Every property on your shortlist gets a proper video walkthrough — street, street noise, light, layout — so the trip you do make is to sign, not to guess.

Walkable, beachside, strong owner-occupier demand.
Village lifestyle, cafes, surf — consistently sought after.
Border lifestyle, beaches on both sides of the state line.
Family-friendly, schools, canal and parkland living.
How we're paid
About
I've held my real estate licence since 2015 as a Class 1 Real Estate Agent and Auctioneer, across residential and commercial property. I know how selling agents run a campaign and how auctions really play out — because I've run them myself.
For forever-home buyers, that means someone in your corner who can read a listing, a campaign and a room the way the other side does — and who isn't getting paid a cent by anyone but you.
If you're relocating to the Gold Coast from interstate or overseas, I do the legwork you can't: inspecting, filming, shortlisting and negotiating on the ground, so the only trip you need to make is the one to move in.
How it works
A free call to understand your must-haves, timeline, and whether the "live-in-then-convert" strategy fits your plans.
Every genuine contender is inspected and filmed in person before it reaches you.
Private treaty negotiation or on-the-day auction bidding by a licensed auctioneer.
Coordinated with your conveyancer and broker, wherever you're settling in from.
FAQ
No — we represent buyers across houses, apartments, townhouses, acreage and development sites, and across every Gold Coast suburb from Coolangatta to Coomera, plus Tweed Heads and the Northern Rivers. Whatever the property type or the postcode, the same flat-fee, no-commission approach applies.
No. I inspect and film every serious property in person, so you're only travelling for the properties genuinely worth seeing yourself, and for settlement.
I'm a licensed buyer's agent and auctioneer, not a concierge service — I negotiate and bid on your behalf, and I'm paid one flat fee by you alone, never a commission from anyone else in the transaction.
Many clients plan for exactly that. Living in it genuinely first, then renting it out later, can preserve the CGT exemption for up to six years under current ATO rules — we build that possibility into the search from day one where it fits your plans.
