And I think that's a key part of what an expert buyer's agent should bring to the table is you're looking through the lens of an owner occupier at all times to buy homes that are really desirable.

Scott AgateGUEST
And, you know, having been doing this for over 30 years and sitting in that agent seat for so long for decades myself, I understand the right street appeal, the right aspects, the right floor plans and layouts, how the room sizes and storage and things make an impact on people.

Scott AgateGUEST
natural light, ceiling heights, the level of quality in terms of the fixtures and finishes, positioning within the suburb as well, like proximity to parks, schools, transport, lifestyle, those types of things are really important.

Scott AgateGUEST
So these are all the metrics that we're looking at ensuring that we're getting it right, because we know that the likelihood is when you're in exactly that, the 30%, investor owned market, 70% owner occupiers, that your likelihood is going to be that it's an owner occupier that's going to buy it.

Scott AgateGUEST
