Frequently Asked Questions

A buyer's agent is a licensed professional who represents the buyer's interests throughout a property purchase — from research and shortlisting through to negotiation and settlement. The agent showing you through most homes represents the seller, not you. A buyer's agent puts a qualified professional on your side of the transaction, so you're not going in unrepresented.

Fees vary depending on the scope of service and the complexity of the search — a full acquisition service is structured differently to a one-off portfolio review, for example. We'll walk you through exactly how our fees work, with no hidden costs, during your discovery call, before you commit to anything.

No. CMD Properties does not hold an Australian Financial Services Licence (AFSL) and does not provide personal financial, taxation, or legal advice. We help you find, evaluate, and secure investment-grade property, and recommend you speak with your own licensed financial adviser, accountant, and solicitor about your personal circumstances before making a decision.

No. While CMD Properties is based on the Gold Coast, we work with clients across Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, Western Australia and South Australia.

Yes — this is a core part of what we do. Our team research and analyses markets across five states, using data modelling and on-the-ground networks to find and negotiate opportunities you'd likely miss searching on your own, wherever they are in Australia.

We work across owner occupy, residential investment property, dual-income properties (two rental incomes from one title), development sites, and commercial property, depending on your goals and stage as an investor. Your discovery call is where we work out which of these — if any — is the right fit for you.

Yes — it's a free, no-obligation 15-minute conversation about your goals, budget and options. There's no pressure and no cost to find out whether working together makes sense.

Just come with a general sense of your goals (for example, cash flow, growth, or a mix of both), your approximate budget or borrowing capacity if you know it, and any questions you have. You don't need finance pre-approval or a fully formed strategy — that's what the call is for.

We respond to all enquiries within 24 hours.

Our involvement doesn't end at settlement. We help coordinate the handover to property management, and offer ongoing portfolio reviews so your investment — and any future purchases — stay aligned with your goals.
