A buyers agent in Parramatta 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 Parramatta 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 Parramatta decision is made on evidence, not on a sales pitch.

NSW is led by Premier Chris Minns (Labor). These are the changes that matter most to investors.
Parramatta is Sydney's second biggest business centre, and new metro and light rail lines are adding transport capacity, with a NSW target of 19,500 new homes by 2029. Almost half of all homes are rented and many new apartments are planned, so we weigh that supply against holding costs before recommending any Parramatta suburb.

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
