A buyers agent in Bendigo is a licensed agent who acts only for the buyer, never the seller. Citadel Agency has secured investment property in Bendigo for clients, in suburbs including Kangaroo Flat, with research, sourcing, due diligence and negotiation from the first call 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 research across 15,500 suburbs, so your Bendigo decision is made on evidence, not on a sales pitch.

Victoria is led by Premier Ben Carroll (Labor), who succeeded Jacinta Allan on 28 July 2026, and a state election is due on 28 November 2026. These are the changes that matter most to investors.
Investors buying in Greater Bendigo should factor in two-yearly gas and electrical checks and energy efficiency upgrades from March 2027, and should note that ending a tenancy now needs a valid reason. Growth there is steadier than in Geelong or Ballarat, and the council target of 37,000 new homes leans towards established areas rather than greenfield.

Our three strongest results here, by growth. See every purchase on our results page. Values now are from comparative market analyses (CMA). Suburb only, no client details. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.
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
