In the current landscape of house-hunting in Adelaide, Jade Robran explains why having a buyer’s agent in your corner can be a life-changing investment

With a deep understanding of the market, trusted relationships with clients, and hands-on experience as a buyer, renovator, and seller – buyer’s agent, Jade Robran, is Adelaide’s property mogul with a desire to make a lasting impact on her client’s lives.

For those unfamiliar, can you briefly explain what a buyer’s agent does?
We work only for you, the buyer –finding the right home, negotiating the best price, and steering you clear of costly mistakes. One of the biggest perks is access to off-market and pre-market opportunities – properties you’d never see online. From suburb research to inspections, building and pest reports, and contract guidance – we handle the legwork so you can focus on the fun part: picturing your life in your new home.

The concept has taken off in other states, and why is now the right time for Adelaide buyers to embrace it?
Adelaide’s market is the hottest it’s ever been – stock is low, demand is high, and more properties are being sold off-market or in rapid campaigns.

What advantages does a buyer’s agent give you in Adelaide’s competitive property market?
In Adelaide’s fast-moving market, a buyer’s agent is your calm in the chaos. They open doors to homes you’d never find yourself, protect you from overpaying, and fight for your best outcome when emotions run high.

Why should buyers see it as an investment rather than an extra cost?
Because the right buyer’s agent can save you far more than their fee. They stop you from overpaying in bidding wars and uncover off-market deals where nine times out of 10 the vendor sets a lower price. They also help you buy a property that grows in value long-term, meaning more equity, more security, and fewer costly mistakes.

Can you share a recent success story where you’ve helped a client secure their dream home that they might not have achieved on their own?
Recently, I worked with a young family who had been searching for more than six months and kept missing out at auctions. Through my network, I was able to get them through an off-market character home in Malvern before it was advertised. They told me afterwards they could never have accessed or navigated that opportunity on their own, and that having someone take care of the whole process was an absolute game changer.

How does your network and insider knowledge of the Adelaide market give your clients an edge?
My network and insider knowledge give clients access to opportunities most people never see. Selling agents often reach out to me first with off-market or pre-market properties because they know I have qualified buyers ready to go. That means my clients get through the door before the crowds. On top of that, I know which suburbs are quietly on the rise and where future developments might impact value. This inside track helps my clients avoid costly mistakes, negotiate with confidence, and secure homes or investments.
