Property Finder vs Estate Agent — What’s the Difference?

An estate agent is appointed by the property owner and acts in the seller’s best interests, with the aim of achieving the highest possible price. Their portfolio is limited to properties they are instructed to sell.

A property finder, by contrast, works exclusively for the buyer.

Rather than selling from a single list, a property finder has access to a wide network of estate agents, developers, and private sellers. This means a broader choice of suitable properties, sourced specifically to match the buyer’s requirements.

A property finder takes time to understand how you plan to use the property, your budget (including costs), preferred locations, and long-term goals. Only properties that genuinely fit your brief are shortlisted and presented for viewing.

When you decide to proceed, your property finder negotiates with the seller or authorised agent on your behalf, aiming to secure fair pricing and favourable terms — while representing your interests throughout the entire buying process, from search to completion.
