What does a buyers agent in Tweed Shire 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 Tweed Shire decision is made on evidence, not on a sales pitch.

  3. Do you receive rebates or commissions from anyone other than me?

  5. Can I read the buyer’s agency authority before I commit?

What this means for you

The Tweed sits on the Queensland border next to the Gold Coast, so jobs, airport access and services across the border drive much of its housing demand, along with the new Tweed Valley Hospital. Flood risk and planning controls vary a lot between towns, so we weigh those, supply and holding costs before recommending any Tweed suburb.
