Longview

Longview has not published its fees on PropertyGo. Ask Longview for a quote for your brief: it is free and there is no obligation.

You do. A buyer's agent is engaged and paid by the buyer, which keeps their advice independent of the sale. The selling agent is paid by the vendor and acts for the vendor. When you brief Longview, they work for you alone.

From this page. On a computer, the contact card beside the profile has their number where they list one, a way to arrange a call (Book a call opens their own booking page where they have one, and Request a call lets you pick a day for them to call you) and Send a message. On a phone, the bar at the bottom of the screen has their number (or the call option) and a message button, and the other ways are under their name. A call request and a message are both free, with no obligation.

Most buyer's agents follow the same path: an initial consultation on your brief and budget, then searching and shortlisting, inspecting and appraising properties, negotiating or bidding at auction, and coordinating the contract through to settlement. Ask Longview which of those steps their service covers and which you are expected to handle yourself.

Longview lists investment and owner-occupier. Ask whether they have bought that type in your target suburbs recently.
