Why Buy or Invest in Wollongong?
Wollongong is a beautiful seaside city popular among families, professionals, and students that enjoy a relaxed lifestyle, without sacrificing city proximity. This coastal city is perfectly nestled between a continuous coastline of surfing beaches on the east, and the green expanse of the Illawarra Escarpment on the west.
As the third largest city in New South Wales and the tenth in Australia, Wollongong blends the warmth of a small town, with the fun and excitement of city living. If you’re chasing a laid-back, beachside vibe, with a splash of city excitement, it doesn’t get much better that Wollongong. When you explore the city, you’ll stumble upon charming cafes and restaurants and fantastic shopping options on every corner.
Thanks to thriving industries like steelworks, ports, coal mining, and fisheries, Wollongong is also brimming with economic and employment opportunities. What’s more, Sydney CBD is just a 90-minute drive, opening even more prospects for residents. As more workers shift towards hybrid or entirely remote working set-ups, Wollongong continues to grow in popularity for those looking to work in Sydney but live in a more comfortable and affordable location.

Through years of working in Wollongong, our agents have developed an extensive understanding of how this market operates and built invaluable relationships to service our clients.

A buyer’s agent is very different from a real estate agent. Our comprehensive services include every step of the home-buying process. We can take care of everything from the property search, inspections and due diligence, auction bidding, mortgage negotiations, and closing the deal.
Why Should I Use a Buyer's Agent to Purchase a Home in Wollongong?

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to hire a buyer’s agent in Wollongong?
As you might expect, the cost of hiring a buyer’s agent in Wollongong will vary widely, depending on several factors. Every buyer’s agent has their own pricing methods, but the price they charge will be influenced by market conditions and the level of service they provide.
One thing we’ve learned from our experience working on the property market, it’s that a higher price does not always indicate a better service. We advise that you do not solely use price when choosing a buyer’s agent in Wollongong but instead read their reviews and speak to people who have worked with them.
At Aus Property Professionals, we believe in collaboration and flexibility. We are committed to helping our clients and refuse to charge people for services they simply don’t need. That’s why rather than setting the price solely based on the purchasing price, we operate on a fixed fee rate tailored to the service you want and need from us.
In our first meetings with you, we will take the time to understand your unique requirements, property ambitions, and what you hope to get from us. It is this information and these conversations that determine the price. We take great pride in offering affordable, high-quality solutions to prospective buyers in Wollongong and beyond.
Can a buyer’s agent in Wollongong represent me at an auction for a property?
Absolutely. Auctions are incredibly complex, and representing yourself can be an emotional experience with intense levels of stress.

Are your buyer’s agents in Wollongong fully qualified?

Here at Aus Property Professionals, we take certification and qualifications very seriously. To ensure that our clients receive the best possible service, we insist that all our buyer’s agents hold memberships with one of these reputable organisations. But that’s not all – our Wollongong buyer’s agents also bring decades of industry experience to the table and come with an extensive network of reliable sellers and established real estate agents in the area. Our team are not just certified, they’re seasoned professionals.
Can a buyer’s agent help me to secure a mortgage?
