How long does it take to find and buy a house?

July 1, 2019

Is it possible to speed up the house hunting process?

If you’re house-hunting for a new home, the whole process can seem like a long, never-ending experience. And it’s true - finding and buying a home is rarely a quick process.

So, how long does it take to find and buy a house?

For many Victorians, it can be six to 12 months from the initial research stage to actually moving into their dream home. The process includes:

  • Researching suitable places online and in magazines
  • Seeking loan approvals
  • Visiting multiple Open Homes
  • Finding the perfect house
  • Placing an offer
  • Signing and exchanging contracts
  • Picking up the keys

And yes, due to the multiple steps and various factors involved, it’s common to experience delays along the way.

Is there a quicker way to find and buy a house?

Why, yes there is! By significantly cutting down the research stage.

Listing Loop offers home buyers a more efficient approach to property searching. Our off-market property platform replaces wasted hours of scrolling through property websites with real-time property match alerts, bringing the property directly to you.

You can be the first to know about housing matching your criteria before they’re advertised on the open market. It’s like having a VIP all-access pass to top ‘secret’ properties. As a result, Listing Loop can help you find your dream home faster.

But what’s the cost?

That’s the best part - it’s absolutely free for home buyers to register. Listing Loop aims to provide an efficient and customer service centric experience to help you find your next property.

As a buyer, you are our top priority.

How does it work?

Buyers can either be invited to Listing Loop via a real estate agent, or sign yourself up and select an agent to be your designated ‘Agent Assist’. Your Agent Assist is your ‘go-to’ person to answer any questions along the way. It’s completely up to you how much or how little you call upon them for support.

Communications between you and your Agent Assist is facilitated through in-built communication tools. Your Agent can see which properties you view and proactively offer support.

After registering, you’ll be asked to select your unique property preferences within a personalised dashboard. You can login at any time to tweak or update your search criteria.

As soon a relevant properties are upload, you’ll be notified via email. So you don’t have to look for your dream home - it will come to you!
