Building Newcastle’s Top Buyers Agency
We help time poor Aussies buy property

Is now the right time to buy? 🤔

04/11/2026

10 rules for buying property. Most buyers learn them the hard way.

1. The price guide is marketing. Recent sales tell you the true price.
2. Fall in love after the building report. Not before.
3. The highest offer doesn’t always win. The cleanest or fastest one often does.
4. Your first offer tells the agent your ceiling.
5. Cheap is cheap for a reason.
6. You can’t change the location. The land goes up. The building goes down.
7. Buy what’s scarce.
8. Most of the market is owner-occupiers. Buy for them.
9. The selling agent works for the seller. Never tell them your budget.
10. Buy well and never sell.

Which one did you learn the hard way? Tell me below 👇

Don’t overlook tenanted properties

As interest rates rise, more pressure is put on homeowners. More so, premium properties with lower yields and higher mortgages will feel the pinch

We’re beginning to see more tenanted properties hit the market. The rush to get these properties on implies that the vendors need money, soon

Tenanted properties historically sell for less since they don’t present as well, and have leases in place that deter buyers

If you can stomach the lease end date, this is a great opportunity to upsize with more supply, and less competition

Happy trick or treating 👻🎃

What I would buy with $1.3mil to spend in Newcastle

105 Crescent Road, Waratah

This is the first property I ever fell in love with - does it hold up today?

This is what $6 million buys you in Newcastle.

94 Memorial Drive, Bar Beach.

4 bed. 3 bath. 2 car. And a view of the ocean you don’t get often anywhere in the country.

Only 10 homes in Newcastle have sold for over $5 million this year. This is one of them.

The last owners bought it in 1997 for $680,000.

So what does it cost to own?

20% deposit: $1.2 million
Stamp duty: around $350k
Loan: $4.8 million

At about 6.5%, that’s roughly $30,000 a month.
$7,000 a week.
About $1,000 a day. For 30 years.

Rare doesn’t come cheap. And on Memorial Drive, it almost never comes up at all.
