Common questions
Still not sure? Here's what busy professionals ask
Who is this for?
Busy professionals who have the income and some savings or equity, but not the time to research markets, sit through inspections and negotiate. Most of our clients are buying their first or next investment property.
What does a buyer's agent actually do?
We work only for you, the buyer. We agree your brief, research the markets, shortlist properties, run the due diligence and negotiate the price and terms. You approve the brief at the start and sign at the end.
Where do you buy?
Selected markets across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland and Western Australia, chosen on the numbers for your brief rather than where we happen to live.
Are you paid by sellers or developers?
No. Acquira charges a flat fee and takes nothing from vendors, developers or selling agents, so the only person we work for is you.
How do you choose the market?
On the numbers for your brief: budget, borrowing capacity, goals and how long you plan to hold. We rule markets out as carefully as we rule them in, and we explain why.
Do I need to attend inspections?
No. We research, inspect and negotiate for you. You approve the brief at the start and sign at the end.
How much of my time will this take?
Very little. After we agree the brief, we do the research, inspections and negotiation. You make the final calls and sign.
How much do I need to get started?
It depends on the purchase price, your lender and your borrowing capacity. Deposit, stamp duty and buying costs all add up, so we work through your actual numbers on the call. Your mortgage broker confirms what you can borrow.
What happens on the call?
30 minutes on where you are now, what we'd look for and whether we're a fit. You leave with a clear next step, whether or not you work with us.
Is the call a sales pitch?
No. It's 30 minutes on your situation and what would suit it. If we're not the right fit, we'll tell you on the call.
I'm not in Melbourne. Can you still help?
Yes. The call is by phone or video, and we buy in selected markets across several states, so where you live doesn't limit where you buy.
Should I wait because of the negative gearing changes?
Tax rules change. Long-term results come from fundamentals like supply, rental demand and the right property in the right market. We look at what the changes mean for you on the call. This is general information, not tax advice, so check with your accountant.
How do I know you're legit?
Acquira is a licensed buyer's agency (Acquira Capital Pty Ltd, ABN 62 695 236 410), rated 5.0 on Google by real clients, and we take nothing from sellers or developers. You'll speak to Puri directly.
Do I need pre-approval before we talk?
No. If you don't have it yet, we'll explain what's needed and work with your broker, or point you to one, so finance is ready before we start searching.
Can I buy through my SMSF or a trust?
Yes. We've bought for clients through their SMSF. We work with your accountant or adviser so the right entity is set up before you buy.
Is this financial advice?
No. We help you find and buy the right property. For financial, credit or tax advice, speak to a licensed adviser, mortgage broker or accountant. We're happy to work alongside them.

Why I started Acquira
From Engineer to 5 investment properties in 3 years

01
The engineer
I started with an engineering salary and a plan for more freedom. As an engineer, every decision has to be backed by data, checked properly and signed off only once the risks are understood.

02
5 investment properties in 3 years
I saved my first deposit from my salary. Finance was new to me and the advice conflicted, so I bought the engineer's way: numbers first, risks checked, nothing on emotion. Rental income helped me hold, and equity from growth funded the next purchase. 5 properties in 3 years, and a multi-million-dollar portfolio by 29.

03
Now I can teach you too
I started Acquira so you don't have to learn it the slow way. On our call I'll show you how I'd approach your next purchase, and if it makes sense, we do the research, inspections and negotiation for you.
