Outpost vs a buyer's agent

A buyer's agent finds and negotiates property for you on the ground; Outpost gives you independent research and preparation before and around that. They solve different problems, and many buyers use both.

A Outpost é ideal para

Buyers who want fast, unbiased numbers and risk checks before committing — and who don't want to pay a percentage of the price.

A alternativa é ideal para

Buyers who want hands-on sourcing, viewings and negotiation in a single local market and are happy to pay for it.

Usar ambos

They pair well: use Outpost to vet price, costs and risk on a property, then engage an independent buyer's agent (you can find one in our directory) to negotiate it. Outpost takes no cut of that engagement.

Perguntas frequentes

Is Outpost a buyer's agent?

No. Outpost is research and preparation — dossiers, cost and tax intelligence, risk checks. We don't view properties or negotiate; we can introduce you to an independent buyer's agent who does, and you pay them directly.

Do I need both?

Not necessarily. Many buyers use Outpost alone to vet a property and then instruct a local lawyer for the purchase. A buyer's agent adds value when you want someone sourcing and negotiating on the ground.
