Frequently Asked Questions

What is a buyer's advocate?

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.

How does Gardenia select Buyer and Vendor Advocates?

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.

How does a Vendor Advocate select the right real estate agent for my property?

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.

Does Gardenia charge clients for their services?

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.

Can I work with both a Buyer’s Advocate and a Vendor Advocate through Gardenia?

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.

Why would I need a Vendor Advocate if I have a Real Estate Agent?

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.

What services can a buyer’s agent provide?

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.

How does Gardenia ensure quality across Australia?

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.

What should I consider when working with a buyers agent?

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.

What is Gardenia’s process for matching clients with the right advocate?

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.

What is a Vendor Advocate?

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.

How does a Buyer’s Advocate differ from a Real Estate Agent?

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.

What sets Gardenia apart from other property advocate services?

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.
