It is agility that is the key to success in the current property climate. We are finding opportunities everywhere.

Wanting to upgrade from their first home our local clients, a young family, engaged us to help them buy their next home. High on their list was a character home and seeing value long term. Taking advantage of the transitional phase that the property market is in I was able to seize on a golden opportunity that was not only oozing with charm but also provides them with more features than they had even dreamed of. A renovated, gabled Queenslander with two living areas, his and hers work-from-home offices, a beautiful Hamptons style kitchen flowing onto an oversized entertaining deck and a stunning new pool. To top it all off it was in their ideal suburb โ Grange โ a location that they thought was out of their budget. Grange is currently in hot demand, and itโs no wonder as it sits in a desirable green corridor, a mere stoneโs throw from the city and offers high quality educational options for families.
ย
Secured at auction, this beautiful home will be much loved by its new owners, and I am so happy to have been able to help them achieve such a successful result.

Our interstate clients engaged us as they wanted an investment property here in Brisbane that provided the golden combination of yield and capital growth. They wanted a point of difference for their next investment and someone on the ground to find that uniqueness.โฃ
โฃ
Our local knowledge enabled them to achieve this. We searched across many suburbs but when we walked into this home we could see the immediate potential.โฃ
โฃ
After securing the purchase we got the ball rolling to enhance this property through relationships we have across the industry. This property went from needing a little love to becoming a highly sought-after rental property.โฃ
โฃ
We were able to help our clients add instant value through some cosmetic renovation magic. โฃ
โฃ
Next we were able to introduce our clients to the right people to rent out their property within a week of it hitting the market. WIth average yields for houses in Brisbane sitting at 3.3% we are chuffed our client hit 4% on this one.โฃ
โฃ
It was through our wide network of excellent industry contacts and always going the extra mile for our clients that this was all achieved seamlessly from their interstate location.โฃ

After a long time searching through the difficult market of last year, exhausted and fed up, they engaged us to assist. โฃ
โฃ
Once we took the reins we delivered a perfect option within days and secured their home within weeks. They had overlooked this opportunity as they thought it was above their budget - but with our experience and up to date market knowledge - we knew it was achievable with the right strategy. โฃ
โฃ
High on the ridge in Ashgrove with beautiful mountain vistas, multiple entertaining areas and a layout perfect for their teenagers this home was beyond their expectations. With a few additions over time this home in a blue-chip suburb will be even more valuable. โฃ
โฃ
Itโs been a long journey for our clients but they are so thrilled now. Their only regret is that they wished they had made the call to us earlier.โฃ

A wonderful Great Grandma who just moved to Brisbane had some very specific needs. In particular, she wanted a quick result. Time was of the essence. โฃ
Within the first day we had narrowed down our search to two specific buildings.โฃ
Within the first week we had 5 off market properties to show her. While we were driving one day she called us the โmafiaโ of Brisbane property accessing so many unlisted properties.โฃ
Through sheer persistence and relationships with agents by day 10 we had secured her an off-market new home within budget. It was a huge relief to everyone and she is loving her new home.
Happy Anniversary to the amazing Vanessa!
Vanessa started with me one year ago today as my first employee.
I hit the jackpot the day she started - to find someone as committed to clients and the success of The Informed Buyer is a business miracle.
Vanessaโs values and attitude are something I appreciate everyday. She adds a touch of style and magic to everything she does and it doesnโt go unnoticed. ๐ซ
Give her some Insta love @vanessaosullivanbuyersagent
Well hello!
If you donโt know me well, I am Jayne- the proud owner of The Informed Buyer. A small buyerโs agent here in Brisbane delivering big results to our clients one home at a time.
When I am not in the office you wonโt find me anywhere instagram-worthy. But instead I am just happy with the smaller moments of family life. I loveโฆ
- Having my kids run over to me at school pick up ๐
- Watching my dog run around the dog park ๐ถ
- Baking at home and making the house smell like cookies ๐ช ๐ช
- Camping with friends, watching our kids play together as we sit on our camp chairs enjoying a good chat. โบ๏ธ ๐ณ
I think all of my past and present family clients would agree this mum life helps add value to them.
It may not be glamorous but hey it still makes me smile those big cheesy grins. ๐๐
Have a great weekend everyone!
When searching for our clients we go out of our way to listen to their true needs.
We take pride in finding homes not properties.
Every clientโs needs are quite different, itโs always a privilege to work for them and get to know them. ๐งก๐๐

What an unlucky time this local family had in trying to find a home last year. They were feeling so deflated about the whole situation as they had searched for so long.โฃ
A couple months ago, I went along to an open home on a Saturday not expecting what I was about to find. I had just left another home in Wooloowin that wasnโt quite right for them. It was through commitment and my can always squeeze one more โopen houseโ attitude that I found it. As I went downstairs and saw the extra high ceilings and inviting pool I knew it was the one. โฃ
When they saw it they agreed so we secured this beautiful Queenslander prior to auction with all itโs charm. It was in a dream suburb that ticked all the boxes and within budget. Everything this family had been through- all those homes they thought were perfect suddenly a distant memory. โฃ
My work here is done and itโs now over to this very deserving local family to make memories together. ๐๐งก๐
Thanks on the sales side to Phillip @harriganpropertygroup it was a pleasure.

There are properties that the photos look good but when you step inside the home takes your breath away.
It was amazement at first sight ๐๐ just the way it should be.โฃ
Luckily we were able to secure it prior to anyone else falling in love for our gorgeous local family.โฃ

Purchased off market in Clayfield.
This Queenslander home with pool and large backyard was the perfect home for our local family. We are sure this home is full of happiness this school holidays. ๐๐๐งก
And here is what my clients had to sayโฆโฆ..
We we're looking to relocate from Sydney and we're unable to travel, Luckily we found Jayne and Vanessa! They managed the anxiety of purchasing a new home we had never physically seen while giving us great options that matched our needs. When it came time to buy we had complete confidence in their strategy which ultimately payed off with Jayne getting us the perfect house. They looked after us and not only got us in but gave us some great insights into the area which has been a huge help in settling in!

Relocating to Brisbane this family engaged us to search and secure something prior to their arrival and the school year starting. They requested a large block character home and advice on the best family suburbs.โฃ
โฃ
With that brief in mind we quickly pinpointed the best options across a few suburbs. This was the stand out both from a community perspective but also a home that fitted their needs.โฃ

It was a pleasure to help a lovely family find their special home.โฃ
