Shane 
 Looking at an investment property is a huge financial commitment and making sure the right property ticks all of the boxes to meet our circumstances, and that the property was investment grade, was crucial. Jake Milne and the team executed this perfectly and our expectations were exceeded.

Jake understood my investment brief well and did a great job in assisting me with finding a property that was within this criteria. Jake's knowledge and education was fantastic in the property negotiation process and he assisted in secureing the property at great value.

"Thanks for everything you've done, from initial consultation to asset selection to organising all of the people involved with settlement. I've recently spoken with some mated who have asked who I used as they are impressed with your Buyers Agent research from Jake."
Michelle
Working with Jake to find an investment property made the whole process fun and painless. The properties presented in the shortlists were all suitable, and we secured our property within 2 weeks of it being presented to us at a reasonable price.
Amelia
I truly must thank you for a wonderful and amazing service you have provided me. I will be enjoying the benefits from now on and my children will after I am gone. The focused approach from Jake and the support from the moment I walked in, has exceeded any expectation.  It’s all about finding the right people and having a team around you. Two of my properties were brought interstate. I had such confidence in Jake after he found my first property; the interstate properties will also pay off with dividends. I am delighted with the investment quality, locations and my returns. Jake’s knowledge and genuine passion for the best outcome for me were proven time and time again. From the start, to the moves I needed to make along the way, I received support at every turn. I’ve enjoyed the chats, laughs, friendship and advice the whole way. Thank you.

Property investment is a daunting process, especially if you don’t do it everyday. Jake not only saved us time and the stress of identifying the right property, but also was a wealth of knowledge and a great guide when we had any questions/concerns about the process. He knew our strategy, budget and executed. Jake genuinely cares, is passionate, and simply loves and knows property … the type of key player we’ll be calling on again to help us on our future property investment journey. Thanks Buddy.
Rob & Christel
Big thank you to Jake for ensuring we were able to secure the right property for our SMSF at the right price point. Jake, our Buyers Agent, really hustled to secure us an off market property at a below market price. Thanks so much for your professional service and your unwavering commitment to help us achieve the best result possible. We look forward to your service on our next purchase and will recommend your services to others.
Craig
The service provided from start to finish was exceptional. I found Jake to be highly professional in all facets of the service provided. Trusting someone to guide you into a big financial commitment is a stressful/nerve racking decision to make. Now that we have made the purchase I feel totally confident that the investment we have made will be great for our wealth generating goals. Jake made the process for us stress free at every step. Thank you Jake!
Sandra & John
Thanks to all of you for all of your calls, emails and online meetings the past few weeks, there has been a lot of information to process, and we did some hard thinking over the weekend.

We’ve come to a decision, and have decided to consolidate our position using the two properties you’ve helped us purchase.

They are fantastic properties, and we’re very grateful for your expertise in helping us secure these places, which will help us maintain a very comfortable living in what we hope will be a long and happy retirement.

It wasn’t an easy decision, and John has done lots of number crunching and scenario building, and we’ve come to the same conclusion that you have all pointed out, that the third property is “icing on the cake” and not having the third property will minimise risk around debt in retirement.

We also hugely appreciate the openness and integrity that the entire team has shown in looking out for our interests, highlighting the pros, cons and risks, so we could make an informed decision.

The Buyers Agent service was money well spent!

Initially we had concerns over cost as it would reduce our total purchasing power from SMSF. After a few minutes I could see the wealth of knowledge brought by Jakes and his colleagues to the task at hand far outweighed the one off cost. Less than a month later we have a 2 bed investment property in a gentrifying ripple suburb less than 8k from Melbourne CBD with way better capital growth figures than I could have found let alone won at auction myself.

Not to finish there, the team then worked to organise surveys, conveyancers and tenants!

Thanks All!

Jake was fantastic in providing a complete end-to-end Buyers Agency service that exceeded our expectations. Right through from initial consultation, to short listing, pre-settlement and post-settlement management. Jake’s experience and advice made things really easy for us given this was our first property purchase. Through Jake’s connections we were able to choose the best property manager for our investment, and immediately meant we went from a 3.4% to a 4.0% yield.

My only recommendation would be that Jake and the team continue to provide this amazing service to all current and future clients!

Kelvin

Well done team – in particular, Jake Milne, for helping us to secure an off market property in Northcote. Your persistence, hard work and professionalism are definitely admirable. It wasn’t an easy journey due to the overheated market, but we got there in the end! Also thank you for keeping an eye out for us to make sure we secure the right property for the right price.

Sandra

Jake Milne was the perfect partner in helping find our property. His customer service was second to none, and you felt like you were always on the top of his list, although I’m sure he had a number of other clients! Jake helped us secure a great property at a very competitive price through some shrewd tactics and negotiation. The fee was well worth the expert advice and services we received from Jake and the whole team. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Kai

I was very happy with Jake’s consistent attention and diligence despite the process taking longer than anticipated.

Dan

I would highly recommend the service. My wife and I both have a keen interest in property investment; however, with no time to adequately research locations and select properties, working with the team was perfect. We were given the flexibility to get involved as much as we desired, which satisfied our appetite for property investment. We always felt we had control of the process; getting insights and proposals from Jake. Fantastic service from Jake! Personable, informative and timely service . He made the experience extremely enjoyable.
