Professional Services Program

Pair your professional advice with the experts in strategic property investment. Our Professional Services Program is all about complementing independent financial, tax and mortgage advice with sound property advice for a holistic approach to property investment.


Who is it for?

If you’re a mortgage broker, accountant, or financial planner chances are you have an interest in property investment. While professionals like you can help fund, or advise on a client’s financial or tax plan, who’s looking after the actual asset purchase?

Sound Property is the Buyer’s Agency of choice for industry professionals when it comes to investment property. We operate a fee-for-service model which means you can feel confident we’ve always got your client’s best interest at heart.

What we invest in:

  • Capital cities and major regional hubs in NSW, 
VIC and QLD
  • Houses and townhouses in established suburbs
  • Proven suburbs with 7%+ p.a long-term growth (past 20 years)
  • Low vacancy rates <2%
  • Infill development sites within 15km of the CBD

What we don’t invest in:

  • Off-the-plan units/apartments 
(unless specifically asked)
  • House and Land packages in greenfield estates
  • Regional markets
  • ‘Cheap’ properties sub $400,000
  • The latest ‘Hotspots’ which can become tomorrow’s ‘Notsopts’

We will continue to recommend and sing praises of Andrew Cull and his team at Sound Property Group, as they tailor their service to meet the client’s needs. We and our clients are truly grateful for their expertise and guidance on all property matters.

Nathan
Accountant and business owner

I have worked with Andrew Cull across a number of mutual client investment property acquisitions (acting as the mortgage broker). I have found Andrew to offer in depth strategy guidance, client education, strong negotiation, and importantly - first class communication. I will continue to recommend Andrew and Sound Property to clients who are seeking an excellent buyers agent with a focus on a tailored investment strategy that takes into account the buyers risk profile and long term goals.
