A buyers agent in Devonport is a licensed agent who acts only for the buyer, never the seller. Citadel Agency is a buyers agency based in Preston, Victoria, that helps investors buy in Devonport and across Australia, with suburb research, on and off market sourcing, due diligence and negotiation through to settlement.
Consumer Affairs Victoria describes a buyer’s agent as a licensed estate agent who, for a fee, acts for a buyer instead of a seller. A selling agent works for the vendor. We work only for you: we find and shortlist properties, look at ones that are never advertised, check each one, and negotiate or bid at auction for you.
Citadel Agency was founded by Omar De Guise and Jadd Chahal. Every purchase is backed by our own suburb research, so your Devonport decision is made on evidence, not on a sales pitch.

Tasmania is led by Premier Jeremy Rockliff (Liberal). These are the changes that matter most to investors.
Devonport is a port and service city, with the Spirit of Tasmania terminal, health, aged care and retail as major employers, and close to one in three homes is rented. Population growth is slow, so we weigh rental demand against supply and holding costs before recommending any Devonport suburb.
Population: ABS, Regional population 2024-25, LGA population data service, Tasmanian Department of Treasury and Finance, TasPOPP 2024 LGA population projections 2023 to 2053 (final report, Table 1), ABS 2021 Census QuickStats, Devonport. Projections are government projections, not forecasts by Citadel Agency.

I have purchased multiple properties over the years however was stuck for over 6months trying to get into the Melbourne and Tassie market. I reached out to the team and in a few weeks they secured me 2 great properties. I will use Citadel for all future purchases going forward. 10/10
