Red Hill home purchased by Home Scouts for regional clients
Buyer Brief
Brad and Alicia had spend almost a year trying to find their perfect Brisbane home, while working remotely in Emerald, Queensland. As a busy doctor, Brad didn’t have the time to be searching for homes or chasing real estate agents.
Not being local to the area, they were also unsure about the best property and location to buy in.
They were after a home which was centrally located, in good condition, and under $1.3 million.
Brad and Alicia engaged Bronwen from Home Scouts for our full buyers agency service to manage the search and acquisition of their property, after being referred by their mortgage broker.
Our Approach
As a first step, we worked closely with our clients to define their brief and also key areas to consider based on their requirements.
They needed access and proximity to the CBD, as well as easy access to the airport for Brad’s regular travel requirements. We determined a shortlist of areas within their budget and then undertook searches across their target suburbs to find the property that best met their requirements.
The market in 2022 in Brisbane was competitive, and we identified the perfect property which was passed in at auction previously. We negotiated on our client’s behalf to secure the property under their budget. The property was tenanted so we also negotiated a settlement date which enabled them to minimise their stamp duty liability and save them an additional $7,000.
Result

Location
Red Hill, located approximately 3km from Brisbane CBD, offers residents a central location with the charm of heritage homes, sprawling parks, and leafy streets. Known for its quirky cafes and local landmarks, the suburb boasts some of the best views in Brisbane. With its rustic appeal, protected heritage status, and walkability, Red Hill has become a sought-after location for working couples and families. Steady growth in its property market reflects its enduring popularity as a desirable place to live and invest.
After many months of struggling to get anywhere with our search for a new home, so glad Home Scouts was recommended to us.
We live remotely so it was invaluable to have Bronwen on the ground in Brisbane to help. She saved us of hours trawling through the websites and shortlisted us properties that fit our needs and were within our budget. She was able to walk us through homes (virtually) and took care of everything from organising inspections to making offers and getting the gardens done before handover.
Would happily recommend Home Scouts to anyone!
