The role

What does a buyers agent in Mandurah do?

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 Mandurah decision is made on evidence, not on a sales pitch.

Five questions to ask any buyers agent
  1. Are you licensed, and what is your licence number?
  2. Do you ever act for sellers?
  3. Do you receive rebates or commissions from anyone other than me?
  4. What happens if we do not find a property?
  5. Can I read the buyer’s agency authority before I commit?
