The right buyer's agent.
Matched, not searched
Tell us your goals. We'll hand-match you to a small shortlist of independently vetted buyer's agents, then step out of the way.
How it works
Three steps. Two to four agents. One that fits
We don't list everyone. We ask a handful of focused questions, frame your investment approach, and shortlist the agents who actually fit it.
Brief
A short, guided questionnaire covering location, budget, strategy and timeline. Five minutes, no obligation.
Shortlist
We frame your approach as an archetype, then hand-match two to four vetted buyer's agents to it.
Introduction
You choose which agents hear from you. Nothing is sent until you say so, and they reach out within one business day.
Why use a buyer's agent
The right agent isn't a cost. It's an edge
Off-market access
See properties before they hit the portals. The right agent's network is months ahead of what you'd find on your own.
Sharper negotiation
A specialist sitting opposite the selling agent, not a busy generalist. The savings on a single purchase typically cover the engagement.
Local knowledge, not just listings
Suburb-level read on price, supply and the right pockets, whether you're choosing the next portfolio acquisition or the street you'll raise your kids on.
Time back
Months of evenings on real estate apps and Saturday inspections, gone. The work done in parallel by someone whose job it is.
Buyer's agents in Sydney typically charge a flat fee of $10k to $25k, or a percentage of the purchase price. On a single purchase the saving from off-market access and sharper negotiation usually covers it. Each agent on Foleo lists their fee model, and Foleo's referral fee never changes what you pay.
How fees workHow we vet
Independence isn't a marketing line. It's a process
Every agent's licence record is public. The Verify link on each profile takes you to it.
NSW licence current and clean
Checked against the NSW Fair Trading public register, monthly.
Licensee in charge named on the licence
The person you will talk to is the person the register holds responsible.
ABN and company active
Checked against ABN Lookup, monthly.
REBAA membership
Checked against the REBAA member directory, monthly.
Professional indemnity certificate on file
Supplied by the agency and renewed annually.
Track record and references
Supplied by the agency and marked as such until verified.
No paid placement
Position on Foleo is earned. We don't sell ranking, sponsored slots or featured profiles, and never will.
Who's behind Foleo
A small bench, chosen the way we'd choose for ourselves
[Copy to come from Rob: one sentence on who he is, one on why he built Foleo, one on what curated means in practice.]
Vetted agencies across Sydney. Every one re-verified annually.
Foleo is operated by CTH Ventures Pty Ltd

The credibility layer for your practice
Foleo is not a directory and we don't sell placements. Ranking is driven by data and positioning, never by paid promotion. Apply to be considered for the verified bench.
