Editorial context
Working with a provider in Sydney – what matters
When appointing a buyer’s agent in Sydney, first establish which tasks the engagement covers. Property sourcing, assessment of individual homes, negotiation and assistance through settlement may form different service packages. The selected reviews of this provider describe several of these activities, but they do not establish that every activity is included in every engagement. A written scope of services makes comparison with other providers easier.
An agreed budget, preferred suburbs and clear property requirements provide a useful basis for the search. As the customer accounts mention searches across different areas and a purchase on the Lower North Shore, ask specifically about experience in your target market. Clarify how properties you find yourself will be assessed and how conclusions about price and suitability are reached. One reported off-market purchase does not establish guaranteed access to similar opportunities.
The reviews link buying assistance with financing support. Prospective clients should therefore discuss responsibilities, the lenders considered, fees and any referral or commission arrangements. It is also worth confirming what support is agreed before and after the purchase, and who will be the main contact at each stage.
The overall Google rating offers a reference point but does not replace checking qualifications, contractual terms and suitability for your plans. The supplied review selection does not represent every customer experience. Legal and technical checks should be arranged separately with appropriately qualified professionals.

Ash from Strategic Investor Group has been absolutely outstanding throughout my entire home buying journey. He worked with me for over a year until I finally made my purchase, and throughout the whole process he was patient, supportive, and always kept in constant contact. No matter how many times my circumstances changed, Ash was always happy to speak with different lenders, explain my options clearly, and guide me in the right direction. He truly went above and beyond to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible. What really stood out was how easy and streamlined he made everything. Anytime I had questions or concerns, Ash was always there to help and provide reassurance. If anyone is looking for a broker, honestly stop looking — Ash is the person you want on your side. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough. Thank you again Ash for all your hard work and support!
We worked with Ash to review our home loans and find better options. He was professional, efficient and followed up with us without being pushy. We appreciated his out of box thinking and the advice he provided, which went beyond what we expected when we first reached out. Highly recommended.
Katherine brought real expertise and genuine commitment to my property search in Sydney. She helped me sharpen my brief, sourced a strong range of options across different areas and price points, and ultimately identified an off-market property that I wouldn’t have found independently. What stood out was her ability to manage a complex settlement process with composure, navigating shifting circumstances on both sides without losing momentum or letting the deal unravel. That kind of steady, solutions-focused approach under pressure is rare and genuinely valuable. If you’re buying property in Sydney and want someone who combines market knowledge with sound judgment and strong negotiation, I’d recommend Katherine and Strategic Agents without hesitation.
Massive thank you to the integrated team at Strategic Finance & Buyers Agents for helping us navigate our first home purchase on the Lower North Shore! Couldn't rate them high enough and looking forward to continuing to work with them all more. From day one, our Buyers Agent team - Kiril, Patrice and Cam - helped us distil our broad thinking into a clear set of priorities and a strategy that allowed us to move quickly and confidently to take advantage in a softening market. What really stood out was how collaborative and flexible the process was. They brought us a wide range of opportunities while also thoughtfully analysing properties we found ourselves, making it feel like a genuine partnership throughout. We were able to cycle through a long list of properties rapidly and narrow down to a few key options to pursue in detail. The team was always available and we loved both the in-per
We honestly cannot recommend Ash Hermiz enough. We’ve worked with Ash for about two years, and throughout the entire journey, from the early planning stages to purchasing our home and everything since, he has been an incredible support. What stood out most was how genuinely invested he was in helping us make the right decisions. He was always available to answer questions, explain things clearly, and guide us through what can be a pretty overwhelming process. He was also incredibly flexible with his time, often making himself available outside of normal business hours to help us when we needed it. It’s something he never had to do, but it made a huge difference to us and speaks volumes about the level of service he provides. Even after settlement, Ash has continued to check in, review our loan, and help us find opportunities to improve our position, particularly during the uncertainty

Services in this field explained
A valuation estimates the price a property can achieve on the market, based on location, condition, size, fittings and comparable sales.
What does a valuation cost? Many agents offer an initial estimate free of charge. A formal market value report by a certified surveyor is paid; the fee depends on the property and effort.
When you sell, an agent handles valuation, exposé, viewings, negotiation and the notary appointment.
Who pays the agent's commission? When flats and single-family houses are sold to consumers, the commission is generally split between seller and buyer (§ 656c German Civil Code).
When letting, an agent takes care of listing, viewings, tenant selection and the tenancy agreement.
Who pays the agent when letting? Since 2015 the “orderer pays” principle applies to residential lettings: usually the landlord pays when they hired the agent.
