🎧 NEW PODCAST EPISODE: The Truth About Buyers Agent Business Models — And Why Ours Is Harder, Less “Efficient”… But Far More Ethical 🏡🔥 With Rocco Marrapodi + Amanda Calabria, Property Educator at Buyers Agency Australia In this episode, Rocco, Amanda and I pull back the curtain on something most buyers never get to see: 👉 How different buyers’ agents actually run their business models — and why it dramatically affects the quality of the property YOU end up with. We dig into the uncomfortable truth: Some business models are built for efficiency. Some are built for volume. Some are built for developer relationships and guaranteed stock. And some… like ours… are built for clients first. That means: ✔️ we chase scarce, high-quality assets ✔️ we say no far more often than we say yes ✔️ we refuse to touch developer stock ✔️ we never rely on guaranteed supply ✔️ and yes — our model is harder, slower and less “scalable” But it’s also why: 💥 our clients get better properties 💥 our portfolios outperform 💥 and our advice stays 100% independent Scarcity is valuable — but it also means you can’t mass-produce it. And that’s exactly why many BAs choose the opposite path. This episode is an honest look at the industry — and why we’ve chosen the road that’s less convenient… but far more ethical. 🔥 Listen to the full episode now. ⚠️ Disclaimer: Everything discussed is general in nature and not intended as financial advice.
