Independent. Experienced.
As Vendor Advocates, we believe that every property seller deserves expert guidance — without the stress, confusion, or sales pressure. We’re here to protect your interests, maximise your result, and most importantly, make the selling process easier and smarter.
What is a Vendor Advocate?
A Vendor Advocate is your independent advisor through the entire property sale process. Unlike real estate agents who represent buyers and sellers, we work solely for you, the vendor — helping you:
- Choose the best local real estate agent
- Create a tailored, strategic marketing plan
- Avoid unnecessary costs
- Understand the sales process
- Stay in control, informed, and supported
The best part?
Our service is completely free to you, the vendor. No hidden fees. No obligations. Just honest advice and expert support from day one.
Empowering you to sell your property
at the best price possible.
We’re with you from the very beginning to settlement — and beyond.
Initial Consultation
We meet to understand your goals, timeline, and property details.
Agent Selection
We research, interview, and recommend the most suitable local agents — based on performance, not commissions.
Marketing Strategy
We work with your chosen agent to craft a cost-effective, high-impact marketing campaign that gets results.
Campaign Support
We keep the agent accountable, help interpret offers, and provide independent advice to help you make confident decisions.
Settlement Support
We guide you through the final steps, ensuring a smooth settlement and successful sale.
How Are We Free?
Our fee comes out of the commission that your selected real estate agent earns — not from your pocket. There are:
- No upfront costs
- No additional charges
- No conflicts of interest
You get expert support and complete transparency — at no cost to you.
