How does buying a property with Daniel work?

Daniel works in partnership with Moove Property and takes a straight-forward and highly personalised approach to property buying. His process is centred around gaining a deep understanding of each client’s goals, requirements, lifestyle, and long term plans, allowing him to develop a tailored property strategy designed specifically for their situation.

From there, the focus shifts to executing that strategy with precision, speed, and confidence through detailed research, thorough due diligence, strategic negotiation, and clear communication throughout the entire buying process.

Step 1 - Book a Discovery Call

The first step is to book in a free 15 minute discovery call with Daniel, just to have a quick chat to see if you are a candidate for our services. We will ask you a few key questions, just to get a basic understanding of you, your situation, and what you are wanting to achieve.

If we don't think that you are suitable, or need to get a few things sorted out before you can purchase, we can guide you and refer you to the professionals you will require in order for you to be ready to progress to our next step.

If we feel we can help, we will book you and your partner or other 'big decision makers' in for the next step - a Strategy meeting.

Step 2 - Book a Strategy Meeting

The Strategy meeting is a much longer, in-depth meeting between Daniel and all of the parties that are purchasing the property (you/ partner/ parents/ children/ etc). At this stage we will sit down, and go through your situation, requirements, short/medium and long term goals, and all of the other fine nuances to form a detailed picture of what property we will acquire for you.

It is here that we will discuss the acquisition process, applicable fees, deadlines, and any other questions you may have.

At this point, if you have decided that we are the right fit for you, we will send out the Agency Agreement to begin the onboarding process!

Step 3 - Onboarding and Brief Clarification

We set you up with your own client portal, where you can see what On, Off and Pre market properties Daniel has shortlisted for you, and which properties he had rejected (and the reasons why).

We then narrow down on exactly what properties we will be considering, depending on your requirements, preferences, and non-negotiables.

Step 4 - Sourcing, Due Diligence and Research

This is where we really get to work.

Daniel will now trawl through his contacts and resources of On market, Off market and Pre market properties to find a shortlist of prospects that fit the clients brief. Each property is individually assessed against the brief, and then run through his comprehensive due diligence checklist to ensure any risk that the property may have is uncovered and assessed.

This is a critical stage of the process, and it is quite often the case that the more difficult briefs will result in Daniel rejecting over 60-80 properties per 1 potential candidate.

Step 5 - Prospect presentation and evaluation

This step can vary heavily on the type of brief we are working with, but the fundamentals are consistent with all clients.

Once we have sourced a property (or number of properties) that match your brief, Daniel will discuss the property with you, any associated risks uncovered, and its market value vs intrinsic value (depending on your brief). If you wish to proceed with securing this property Daniel will negotiate directly with the selling agent on your behalf to secure your perfect property with the best terms and price possible.

Step 6 - Contracts, Conditions, and Clauses

Once we have settled on the best price and terms, and signed the contract on your perfect property, Daniel will then liase directly with all of the required parties to ensure the conditions are met. This usually involves a combination of some (or all) the following parties; Conveyancer, Selling agent, Lender or Mortgage Broker, Building and pest inspectors, Plumbing/Electrical/specialty inspections, Accountants, Financial Planners, Property Managers, etc.

The 'wheels' of a contract of sale can easily fall off, if even one of the conditions is not met ontime, so it is critical that the contract is excecuted by a buyers agent that knows the contract, and its hidden meanings back-to-front.

It is also at this stage where you can leverage Daniels' contacts to get the details of anyone that you will need regarding the property, such as a Property Manager, particular tradesman or property-related service, Removalist, etc

Step 7 - Settlement

Once all of the contract conditions have been satisfied, the contract becomes unconditional. Daniel will continue to liase with all of the involved parties ion the lead up to settlement, to ensure everything proceeds smoothly and without an issue, so you can recieve the keys to the next stage of your life! Congratulations!

Understanding Credit Repair

What is credit repair?

Credit repair involves fixing poor credit standing that may have deteriorated for a variety of different reasons. Repairing credit standing may involve simple actions like disputing mistakes with credit agencies, dealing with complex issues like identity theft, or addressing financial habits that have contributed to poor credit ratings.

How does credit repair work?

Our credit repair process starts with a thorough review of your credit report from each credit reporting agency. We identify any incorrect, outdated, or unverifiable information. Then, we proceed with disputing inaccuracies directly with creditors and the credit bureaus. This process involves legal rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act to ensure that your credit report is fair and accurate.

Can credit repair help me even if I have severe credit issues?

Yes, credit repair services can be beneficial for anyone, regardless of the severity of their credit issues. Whether it's late payments, charge-offs, collections, or bankruptcies, we can offer strategies and guidance to help improve your credit score. The key is to address these issues proactively and start the repair process as soon as possible.

About our services

Can you remove any negative item from my credit report?

We work diligently to dispute any inaccuracies on your credit report. However, if the negative items are accurate and verifiable, they cannot be removed until their set duration expires. Our goal is to ensure your credit report reflects only true and accurate information.

How long does the credit repair process take?

The duration of the credit repair process can vary significantly based on your individual situation. Typically, clients start to see improvements in their credit reports within three to six months, but more complex cases may take longer.

Do you offer ongoing monitoring and credit education as part of your services?

Absolutely! We believe that credit repair is not just about fixing past issues but also about preventing future ones. We offer ongoing credit monitoring and educational resources to help you understand how to manage your credit effectively, recognize potential red flags, and maintain your improved credit standing.

Costs and Payments

What are the costs associated with your credit repair services?

We offer different service plans tailored to meet various needs and budgets. Our pricing structure is transparent, and there are no hidden fees. Please contact us for detailed information about the costs associated with our services.

Is there a guarantee for your services?

We provide a satisfaction guarantee on our services. If you’re not satisfied with the progress within the first 90 days of your subscription, we offer a refund policy detailed in our service agreement.

Are there any upfront fees for your credit repair services?

We abide by the regulations that prohibit charging upfront fees for credit repair services. You only pay for our services once they are performed, and detailed invoices are provided so you can see exactly what you are paying for.

Safety and Legality

Is credit repair legal?

Absolutely. Credit repair is legal under federal law. You have the right to dispute any information in your credit report that is inaccurate, misleading, or unverifiable. We adhere strictly to these legal guidelines in all our dealings.

How do you protect my personal information?

We take your privacy seriously. We use industry-standard encryption to protect your data and never share your personal information with unauthorized third parties.

What are the risks of credit repair?

The primary risk associated with credit repair involves not understanding the process or having unrealistic expectations about the outcomes. Credit repair is governed by legal standards, and while many issues can be addressed, some items, if accurate and verified, will remain on your credit report. It’s important to work with a reputable credit repair service that operates within the law and provides clear, honest communication about what can and cannot be achieved.

What if I have already found the property of my dreams?

Frequently Asked Questions

So what is a Buyers Agent?

In real estate, Buyers Agents, also known as Buyers Advocates, are licensed and regulated professionals representing people looking to purchase a property - whether it be for themselves to live in, or an investment.

A typical real estate agent represents the seller (vendor), and presents the property, negotiates and sells the property.

Whereas a Buyers Agent represents the buyer, and researches macro and micro economic factors, inspects prospective properties, performs due diligence on those prospects - then negotiates the price and terms on the buyers behalf with the vendor or selling agent, in order to achieve the best outcome possible for our clients.

How can a Buyers Agent help me purchase a property?

A buyers agent guides you through the entire property purchase process - sourcing suitable properties, assessing value, location and risk, and negotiating strongly on your behalf. By acting solely in your best interests, a buyers agent saves you time, reduces risk, helps you avoid costly mistakes, and gives you confidence that you’re securing the right property at the right price.

Who do we help?

We help first-home buyers, upsizers/downsizers, and investors looking to buy well and avoid costly mistakes.

We can also help interstate or international purchasers who are after someone with 'boots on the ground' to represent their best interests in a transaction, and leverage our local knowledge and contacts.

Do you work for the seller or developer?

Neither. We are fully independent, and work exclusively for the buyer (you).

How are we paid?

We charge a transparent fee depending on the package you require. The package fee is split into 2 parts - the 'engagement fee' and the 'success fee'.

Engagement fee - This small portion of the package fee is paid upfront to get you set up with your client portal, to get very clear on your brief and requirementas, and begin sourcing prospective properties through our various networks.

Success fee - Once we have secured the perfect property for you and your brief, and the contract becomes unconditional, we will ask for the balance of the package fee. Dont worry though, we will continue to navigate your through the conveyance and settlement, ensuring everything proceeds in your best interests, and your receive the keys on settlement day!

Unlike some buyers agents, there are no incentives or 'kickbacks' from any third party, such as developers, builders, selling agents, property managers, etc. This ensures that everything we do is solely in your best interests, no one else's.

What areas do I service?

Daniel services all of Queensland, with South East Queensland being his primary area of expertise. Rather than spreading himself across multiple states, his focus is on developing deep local knowledge, strong industry relationships, and a detailed understanding of the Queensland market to provide the highest level of service and advice to his clients.

By specialising in one state, Daniel is able to offer more strategic guidance, stronger on-the-ground insights, and a more hands-on buying experience, helping clients make smarter property decisions with confidence, whether they are purchasing a home, investment property, or relocating to Queensland.

How long does the process take?

It depends on your brief and the market, but many clients secure a property in a matter of weeks.

What are 'Pre', 'On' and 'Off Market' properties?

Pre Market properties - These properties are ready to sell, and are anywhere from a few days to a week or 2 from coming onto the market. They typically aren't available to the public yet, meaning there can be less competition to purchase.

On Market properties - These properties are 'on the market' - meaning they are now available to the public to inspect and purchase.

Off Market properties- Off-market properties are not publicly advertised at all. They are typically accessed through agent networks and buyer representatives. While they can present strong opportunities, the outcome depends on the seller’s motivation, the buyer’s requirements, and the specific attributes of the property.

What makes Daniel Hargreaves different to other Buyers Agents?

Daniel Hargreaves brings nearly 20 years of hands-on experience in residential construction and property, giving clients a level of insight that goes far beyond simply assessing a property’s presentation or price guide. As a former licensed builder and business owner, he understands how homes are built, where costly issues can hide, and the nuances between different construction types, renovations, layouts, and site conditions.

Daniel takes a risk-first approach to property buying, focusing heavily on due diligence, honest advice, and long-term suitability. That means identifying potential concerns early, providing straightforward guidance, and helping clients avoid costly mistakes, even if that means advising against a property.

Through his partnership with Moove Property, Daniel combines his construction and market expertise with industry-leading systems, buyer support, and negotiation strategies to deliver a more streamlined and informed buying experience. Most importantly, he works solely in his clients’ best interests, with no commissions from selling agents, no developer incentives, and no pressure to buy the wrong property.

Can't I just buy a property myself?

Absolutely, many people do. The question is whether you have the time, experience, and market insight to consistently buy well and avoid costly mistakes.

Buying a property involves far more than finding something you like. It requires accurate price assessment, understanding local market conditions, identifying risk factors, negotiating effectively, and completing thorough due diligence. Over the years, Daniel has seen many buyers purchase properties with poor renovations, structural issues, expensive unforeseen repairs, hidden defects, or homes that are simply mismatched to their needs and long term goals.

A buyers agent helps level the playing field. Daniel works to reduce risk, save clients time, and guide them through the process to ensure they are buying the right property at the right price, not simply the one that was easiest to secure.
