FAQs
Pre-Consultation
What do I need to know before meeting?
What should I do to get the most out of my complimentary consultation?
Three things:
- Watch our short video after you reserve your consultation. It explains how we work and saves us both time.
- Find a quiet spot for the call, free from distractions.
- Have a rough idea of three numbers: your borrowing power, your available savings or equity, and what you actually want property to do for you.
Armed with those, we can give you straight answers in the very first conversation.
How much do I need to start building a property portfolio?
As a minimum you’d want at least $70,000 in savings or equity and a household income of $70,000 or more. MOGL-approved properties range from $300,000 to $2,000,000, so there’s room to match different budgets and plans.
What is the price range of properties you purchase?
Our purchases typically start from $300,000, with the upper end set by your strategy, borrowing power and portfolio plan. The right range is the one your numbers support. We’ll model it conservatively with you before recommending anything.
Is it advisable to delay the process if financing is not yet secured?
No need to wait. We recommend starting once you have a clear idea of your borrowing power. Pre-approval can happen after we’re underway, and we’ll work alongside your broker to line up the finance while the search takes shape.
How confident do you feel with where the market is going?
We don’t make national predictions, and we don’t need to. Australia isn’t one property market; it’s dozens of markets moving at different speeds.
Record immigration and a genuine housing shortage are real tailwinds, but our job isn’t betting on averages. It’s finding the specific localities where supply, demand and demographics line up, matched to your budget and risk tolerance, then modelled conservatively.
How does it all work?
Simply, in five steps:
- Discovery call: we get to know your situation, your goals, and whether we’re actually the right fit. If we’re not, we’ll say so and point you somewhere better.
- Strategy: we set a clear brief with you (and your broker and accountant): budget, structure, risk appetite, timeline. Conservative numbers by default.
- Search: our data shortlists the markets; our team vets them with real-world experience. We reject an average of 72 properties before recommending one.
- Purchase: negotiation or auction, building and pest, contracts, finance coordination and settlement, managed alongside your conveyancer and broker.
- After settlement: we debrief, connect you with a vetted property manager, and send ongoing performance updates so you always know how the asset is tracking.
And when you’re ready to go again, we go again. Most of our clients build portfolios; they don’t buy once.
Where do you find properties that will give me a good return?
MOGL uses a data-driven approach coupled with human experience to assess locations across the whole of Australia. We weigh dozens of factors: supply, demand, demographics, rental performance. Then someone who’s bought through multiple market cycles vets every shortlisted area. No promises of guaranteed profits; just a disciplined process and a published track record.
Does MOGL guarantee results?
Nobody can guarantee market movements, and be wary of anyone who says they can. What we offer is accountability: the work is visible at every stage, every purchase is published, and a written guarantee sits in the service guide for purchases that underperform.
How long does it take to purchase a property with a buyer’s agent?
Once financing is set and we're actively searching, anywhere from 2 days to about 3 months. There's no minimum or maximum, though; the point is buying the right property, not a fast one.
What are the fees to purchase an investment property with a buyer’s agent?
We offer a few options with a fixed flat fee. This transparency allows you to plan properly, knowing there are no hidden charges or percentages that will affect your journey. For more information on pricing visit our services page.
When is payment required?
For Buyers Advisory you choose one of two payment options when you sign:
- Milestone payments. 25% when you sign, 25% when your research reports are delivered, 25% when the purchase becomes unconditional, and the final 25% seven days before settlement, or at settlement through PEXA.
- Fee-funded. For clients borrowing to cover our fee: 25% when you sign and the remaining 75% at settlement.
Buying two or three properties? The 25% when you sign covers the whole package, and the later payments are made for each property as it reaches that point. Whichever option you choose, the fee is fixed and known before we start.
Service
What happens during our engagement?
Is your guidance truly impartial?
Yes. We take no compensation from developers, sales agents or builders. Our fee comes from you, so the advice answers only to you; there’s no postcode we’re paid to push.
How much time should I expect to invest in the process?
Expect about 30 minutes a week during the search to stay across progress, then around 5 to 10 hours near settlement for legal documents, mortgage paperwork and verification steps. We handle the rest.

With our unrivalled expertise and commitment to your success, you can confidently navigate the property investment landscape and obtain your aspirations.
Is this service exclusively for investors, or is it also suitable for those seeking to purchase a primary residence?
While many of our discerning clients are indeed shrewd investors, a significant portion are individuals looking to acquire their first home. Our expertise lies in identifying and securing properties with exceptional potential for both rapid appreciation and robust cashflow generation.
If your sole objective is to purchase a residence without regard for its future value trajectory, our specialised services may not provide significant additional benefits.
However, if your aspirations include not only acquiring a home that will serve as a comfortable haven, but also one that will appreciate substantially in the near and long term, positioning you to leverage that growth to launch your property investment journey, then you have come to the right place.
Assisting ambitious individuals like yourself in realizing those goals is precisely our area of mastery.
Beyond your service fee, what additional costs should I anticipate?
As an independent firm, we empower you to navigate the investment landscape with clarity. While our expertise guides your journey, certain essential expenses remain your responsibility:
- Building & Pest Report: Gain peace of mind by thoroughly assessing the property's condition.
- Conveyancing: Ensure a seamless legal transfer of ownership.
- Building Insurance: Safeguard your asset against unforeseen structural challenges.
- Landlord's Insurance: Protect your investment and mitigate tenant-related risks.
Depending on your chosen state, additional costs may arise. As a savvy investor, allocate approximately 6% of the purchase price to cover total acquisition costs, exclusive of our service fee. Our team is here to guide you through the nuances, empowering you to make informed decisions at every step.
