Modbury Buyer’s Agent

An Agent On Your Side Of The Table

Modbury gives a buyer a choice between houses on their own land and a smaller number of townhouses and units, all close to the Plaza, the hospital and the busway into the city. At the 2021 Census, 63% of homes were owner-occupied and 31% were rented, so you may be bidding against investors as well as families.

Axiom Realty’s buyer’s agents assess each property for you against comparable sales and likely rent, handle the negotiation and stay with you to settlement. We have sold houses and land in Modbury and lease homes in neighbouring suburbs, so we follow both local prices and rents.

About Our Buyer’s Agency

Results, Delivered.

Buying in Modbury

Location, housing and due diligence

Modbury is the City of Tea Tree Gully’s main business district, with the council’s civic centre and library in the suburb. Westfield Tea Tree Plaza sits beside the Tea Tree Plaza Interchange, the O-Bahn’s terminus on Smart Road, and Modbury Hospital and Modbury High School are here as well.

Separate houses were three in four of the suburb’s homes at the 2021 Census, and vacant land comes up too; we have sold several lots in Modbury. If you are buying for the land, check the zone and minimum site size for the address on PlanSA before you count on dividing it.

For a house, ask your building inspector to cover the roof, wet areas, stormwater and any cracking. For a townhouse, get the strata or community corporation’s levies and recent minutes, so you know about planned works before you sign.

Our Buyer’s Agency Process in Modbury

Search, assessment, negotiation and settlement

You tell us what you need, from the number of bedrooms to the budget, and whether the purchase is a home or an investment. We then scan the market, view the shortlist in person and test each property against comparable sales in Modbury and the suburbs around it, along with what it would rent for.

Then we negotiate the price and conditions for you, or bid at auction on your behalf. Once your offer is accepted, we go through the contract with you and help you all the way to settlement. When the price is wrong or the property has a problem, we tell you to walk away.

Investors look at yield and vacancy first. Hospitals, aged care and supermarkets were the largest industries of employment for Modbury residents at the 2021 Census, and tenants in those jobs tend to want parking and an easy trip to work. Because we lease homes in Modbury Heights and Modbury North, the rent we estimate for you comes from current leasing work.

Interstate and Overseas Buyers in Modbury

Remote purchases and the suburbs around Modbury

Living interstate or overseas is no barrier. We walk through Modbury properties for you and send a recorded tour or written notes on the house and the street, then negotiate or bid while you follow along from home.

After settlement, the home can go straight to Axiom’s property management team, who can lease and manage it from day one. Read about our interstate property management, or see property management in Modbury and selling in Modbury.

Common Modbury Buyer’s Agent FAQs

Have a Question?

Possibly, but check before you pay for the potential. The Planning and Design Code sets the rules through the zone, the minimum site area and the frontage, which PlanSA lists for each address. We price the land on what can be built there, which protects you from paying for a second home that may never be approved.

For many tenants and some owner-occupiers, yes. About one in ten employed residents caught a bus to work at the 2021 Census, and the busway’s Tea Tree Plaza terminus is inside Modbury. We note the walk to the interchange or the nearest bus stop when we assess a property.

It depends on your plans. Houses were three-quarters of Modbury’s homes at the 2021 Census and suit buyers who want land, while townhouses suit people who want less upkeep. For an investment, we compare the rent, the strata costs and the likely vacancy of each before you choose.

Yes. Our agents inspect on your behalf and report back, handle the negotiation or the auction, and guide the purchase to settlement. If you are investing, our property managers can then find a tenant.

Our fees depend on the level of service you need. We discuss them up front at the first consultation and set them out in writing, with no hidden costs.
