We work exclusively with Australia’s top Buyer and Vendor Advocates, all fully licensed and committed to the highest professional and ethical standards.
Our strict onboarding process ensures only the best join our panel. While this means we have fewer advocates, it guarantees exceptional quality and expertise across the board.
Our process is built on a thorough due diligence checklist, designed for complete transparency and outlined below.
Verify that the buyer agent holds a valid, active license in the relevant jurisdiction.
Make sure the buyer’s agent follows all the legal rules and regulations for real estate transactions, ensuring everything is done correctly and smoothly.
Ensure the buyer’s agent is committed to ongoing professional development and stays up-to-date with industry changes.
Evaluate the buyer agent's experience, including their years in the industry and successful transactions.
Check client reviews and testimonials to assess the buyer’s agent's reputation, and verify if there are any disciplinary actions or complaints. Also, ensure the agent is independent, with no conflicts of interest that could affect their advice or service.
Evaluate the buyer’s agent’s knowledge of local market trends, property values, and neighborhood demographics to ensure they can provide informed advice.
Ensure the buyer’s agent follows ethical guidelines and conducts business with honesty and integrity.
Verify that the buyer’s agent is a member of reputable real estate associations, such as REBAA or REIA

A buyer’s advocate, or buyer’s agent, is a licensed professional who represents property buyers. They assist with property search, evaluation, negotiation, and due diligence, aiming to secure the best possible property at the most favorable price for the buyer.
We meticulously vet advocates through a comprehensive onboarding process that assesses their experience, market knowledge, and client track record. This ensures we only connect clients with professionals who demonstrate high standards and exceptional expertise.
Vendor advocates carefully evaluate local real estate agents, considering their experience, recent sales, and approach to marketing. They choose agents who are best suited to your property type, location, and sale goals to ensure optimal results.
No, Gardenia’s service is free for clients. We match you with trusted buyer or vendor advocates at no additional cost, helping you navigate the buying or selling process with ease and confidence.
Yes, Gardenia’s network includes both buyer and vendor advocates, so you can access support for purchasing and selling property. Our advocates work collaboratively to ensure both processes are aligned with your goals, providing seamless support across the board.
A vendor advocate works on your behalf to ensure the real estate agent’s strategies align with your goals. They provide oversight, manage communication, and keep the agent accountable, helping you achieve the best possible sale outcome with minimal stress.
Buyer’s agents provide a range of services, including property searches, market research, property inspections, due diligence, negotiation, and support through the purchase process. They aim to simplify and add value to your property search and purchase.
We have a rigorous selection and onboarding process to vet all advocates, ensuring they meet our standards. This allows us to maintain a consistent level of quality nationwide, whether you’re buying or selling in a metro area or regional location.
Be clear about your goals, budget, and preferences, and ensure open communication. A good buyer’s agent will listen to your needs, keep you updated, and provide sound advice based on your criteria, ultimately making the process smoother and more rewarding.
We start with a consultation to understand your specific goals, preferences, and property needs. Based on this, we match you with an advocate from our panel who has the right expertise in your area of interest and a track record of success aligned with your objectives.
A vendor advocate is a professional who represents the seller’s interests and guides them through the sale process. They help select the best real estate agent, manage negotiations, and ensure the property is marketed effectively to maximise the sale outcome.
While real estate agents represent the seller’s interests in a transaction, buyer’s advocates exclusively represent the buyer. Their goal is to ensure buyers get the best property for their needs and budget, without any conflict of interest.
Gardenia’s model prioritizes top-tier standards and a nationwide reach, connecting clients with only the most experienced and skilled advocates. Every advocate on our panel undergoes rigorous onboarding to ensure they’re qualified and aligned with our commitment to excellence.
