Offshore teams for Australian buyer's agents
We build offshore teams for Australian buyer's agencies: full-time graduate buyer's agents and virtual assistants in Sri Lanka and the Philippines who handle property research, due diligence admin and client coordination. Your licensed agents keep the inspections, negotiating and advice. Roles are filled in 3–4 weeks from $5,999 + GST.
What an offshore team takes on
The research and admin, so your agents can buy
An offshore graduate or VA prepares the research, reports and paperwork; your agents inspect, negotiate and advise clients. Agencies usually start with one graduate buyer's agent and add a VA as client numbers grow.
Suburb & property research
Comparable sales, rental yields, suburb data and shortlists from your data tools.
Due diligence admin
Ordering and chasing building and pest reports, strata records and contract reviews.
Client reports
Property briefs and weekly update reports in your agency's format.
CRM & pipeline
Keeping client records, notes and tasks up to date in your CRM.
Inspection scheduling
Booking inspections and coordinating with selling agents' offices.
Marketing support
Social posts, newsletters and listing round-ups for your brand.

Keep data on kit you control
Choose hardware coordination (you own the equipment) or fully managed IT (leased laptop with setup and security handled), and give staff access only to the systems and files they need.

Buyer's agents FAQ
Common questions
Can an offshore graduate act as a buyer's agent?
No. They do research, reporting and admin. Licensed activity such as negotiating, bidding and advising clients stays with your licensed agents in Australia.
Which role should an agency hire first?
Usually a graduate buyer's agent for research and due diligence admin, then a VA once client numbers grow.
How do we protect client data?
Choose hardware coordination or fully managed IT, and give staff access only to the client files and data subscriptions they need.
Can they work during Australian business hours?
Yes. Philippine staff are 2 hours behind AEST on a standard day; Sri Lankan staff usually start early to overlap your morning.
Sri Lanka or the Philippines for an agency?
Both work and our fees are the same. The Philippines suits phone and client coordination; Sri Lanka suits research and report writing. We recommend one in your consultation.
