Downsizers From Brisbane Home Purchases - Home Scouts

Mudjimba home purchased by Home Scouts for downsizer clients

Buyer Brief

Our clients were downsizing from their Brisbane family home of over 35 years. Their goal was to move to the Sunshine Coast. as part of their transition to retirement. 

They wanted to have a low maintenance 3 bedroom 2 bathroom home – close to the beach, in good condition, and with room for their caravan.  

Their previous family home was their sole property purchasing experience – and they were finding that the real estate market and dynamics had changed significantly in the decades since they last purchased a home. They had been looking for over 8 months, but were very apprehensive about the best way to approach their search and purchase and make the choice of the right property as well as not overpaying. 

They engaged Home Scouts for the Negotiation Only service, following a referral from a previous client.  


Our Approach

We worked with our clients to define their ideal Sunshine Coast location and property type within their budget.  

We also helped them shortlist the right properties, which they inspected themselves. 

We then undertook detailed due diligence (including pricing analysis) on the shortlisted property preferred by our clients and negotiated the price and terms on their behalf. 

The agent had initially referenced a price point for the property which was well above where our market research and price assessment sat for this property. Our negotiating resulted in a saving to our clients of approximately $70K from the price guide originally quoted by the agent. 

Post-contract, a number of Building and Pest issues were identified, many of which we arranged to be rectified at the vendor’s expense.
