Did You Know a Buyer’s Agent Can Help You Find a Rental Property?

When most people hear “buyer’s agent,” they usually think about buying a property.
But here’s something you might not know: we can also help you secure a rental property—and with the latest changes in Australia’s property rules, this has never been more important.

From April 1, 2025, a new ban on foreign buyers will make it harder for people without permanent residency to purchase a home in Australia. This ban is expected to last at least two years.

If you’re moving to Australia during this time, renting will likely be your first step—and that’s where we can help.

Here’s how we make finding the right rental easy and stress-free.

1. We Find the Right Rental Property, Fast

Instead of spending hours scrolling through rental websites, we do the hard work for you. We match you with properties that suit your needs—whether you’re after a family home, a modern city apartment, or something close to schools, transport, or work. We will then inspect each property on your behalf sending through detailed videos and feedback.

2. We Have Access to Rentals Before They Hit the Market

Thanks to our relationships with agents across Sydney, we often hear about rental properties before they’re publicly advertised. This gives you a head start—essential when properties can be snapped up after just one open inspection.

3. We Help You Stand Out from the Crowd

Good rental properties often attract dozens of applications. We help you prepare a professional, standout application, and where needed, we advocate directly to the agent on your behalf—giving you the best possible chance of securing the home you want.

4. We Guide You Through the Lease Process

Rental agreements can be complicated, especially if you’re unfamiliar with Australian laws and leasing conditions. We take the time to review the lease on your behalf, explaining your rights, responsibilities, and any important details you should know before signing.

5. We Offer Full Relocation and Concierge Support
This service can include:

  • Organising cleaners, gardening, and maintenance
  • Setting up utilities like electricity, internet, and gas
  • Providing moving checklists to keep everything on track

Think of us as your personal property concierge, handling all the moving parts so you can settle into your new home smoothly.

6. Why This Matters for Foreigners in 2025

With the foreign buyer ban now in place, many new arrivals to Australia will need to rent first while they work towards visas, permanent residency, or citizenship.

By working with a trusted buyer’s agent, you’ll have:

  • A local expert helping you secure a rental home faster
  • Access to properties that may not be listed online
  • Support navigating local leasing laws and application processes

It’s the smart, stress-free way to get settled and start your new life in Australia with confidence.
