Buy off-market properties for sale in Brisbane

February 13, 2021

Your personal guide to buying off-market properties for sale in Brisbane.

Brisbane, Australia’s 3rd most populated city, is a beautiful haven of flourishing music and art culture, up and coming food scenes and if that wasn’t enough, on average over 250 days of sunshine a year!

Not only that, but real estate in Brisbane is tipped to rise 20 percent over the next three years so now is a great time to grab a great deal and watch your investments grow.

One way to take advantage of the current market is to source off-market properties for sale in Brisbane. There are many benefits of buying off-market properties for sale in Brisbane that can give you a leg up on the fierce buyer competition.

What are off-market properties for sale in Brisbane?

Off-market properties are properties that are for sale (yes, they’re definitely for sale!) but you won’t see it advertised through the traditional, mainstream open channels. Sometimes, you may not even see the property have a for-sale sign out the front. This is why they are sometimes known as ‘Silent Listings’ or ‘Secret Listings’, but they are still very much for sale.

Why would someone sell a property off-market in Brisbane?

There’s a number of reasons why a vendor would sell a property off-market in Brisbane. The first is that selling properties in Brisbane can be exceptionally expensive. Advertising campaigns can cost in excess of $10,000+ and there’s no guarantee that the property will sell – even with the best real estate agent in Brisbane working for them.

The second is that they may need a quick sale. There are many situations where someone is motivated to sell their property in Brisbane quickly (divorce, deceased estate, windfall, etc) and off-market selling is a great way for their local real estate agent to accomplish this for them.

Finally, some people would like to sell their house in Brisbane secretly, such as celebrities, politicians and sports stars, without the whole world knowing that they are selling.

What are the benefits of buying properties off-market in Brisbane?

Buying off-market properties in Brisbane can be a very lucrative deal for the savvy buyer. As some vendors are asking their leading Brisbane real estate agent to search for a quick sale, or for a more private sale, buyers can enter negotiations with a strong backing and with less competition. This can lead to buyers getting a fantastic price for their brand new, off-market property in Brisbane.
