Buyers<br />

Types of Buyers<br />

1. The LOCAL Buyer – This buyer is already living in the suburb, their<br />

life is based around this area, and they will remain in the area<br />

2. The OUT OF AREA Buyer – This buyer is from another state, city<br />

and/or country<br />

3. The PASSIVE Buyer – This buyer is not even looking, they are<br />

potentially a working family, time poor and have found the property<br />

in the paper/online. It ticks all of their boxes, they don’t over-analyse<br />

and are buying on emotion.<br />

4. The ACTIVE Buyer – These buyers heavily analyse every property<br />

and procrastinate before they make their final decision. These are<br />

the most common buyer.<br />

Facts<br />

about<br />

buyers<br />

³ ³ Most are motivated on feelings and emotions, so when presenting a home,<br />

it’s very important to create the right atmosphere<br />

³ ³ They usually choose an area, have a price budget and an array of other<br />

requirements. If a property doesn’t meet these main criteria they will move<br />

on and rarely revisit a property. If they do revisit the property it will not be<br />

with the same level of enthusiasm, generally resulting in a lower offer.<br />

First impressions count - hook buyers the first time.<br />

³ ³ Some search for months or years for the perfect property. Like everyone<br />

they have other things going on in their lives and finding a property may<br />

not be a priority until the right one presents itself. If the right property does<br />

come onto the market they will act fast. Sellers need to be prepared to<br />

receive an early offer as its usually from someone who is genuine, and it’s<br />

been proven over time that in most cases an early offer can be the best offer.
