Here's how we can help
Living elsewhere and wanting to find a company that will be just as passionate as you to find your new Gold Coast abode or investment?

Being personally invested in this market, we know that it is one of the biggest life decisions you are ever going to make and best to make it with an experienced property local. We are property people just like you and know how the game works.
With demand in the Southern Gold Coast area now higher than ever, it can be incredibly challenging for potential buyers to secure deals in this market. 40% of properties sold here are off-market and don’t even make an appearance on Domain or Realestate.com.au. Being well connected in our market gives us an opportunity to secure and pass these deals on to you (as the investor), first options to buy listings that most don’t even get to see.

We are experienced auction attendees and bid solely for your best interest on the day. This gives you peace of mind that buying your home amongst so many others is done with integrity and professionalism.
Sometimes not knowing what you really want is half the problem? We get you thinking about what is really important to you, your family, your lifestyle, your career and then tie that to an appropriate investment scope. When you have a purchase strategy, it becomes super clear what the goal looks like and what is needed to get there. We are not into time wasting, so only present what is quality to your investment requirements. We will show you how you can create value for you and your family through using the right strategy to buy the right property investments.

Why have a buyers agent in your life?
Being represented on the purchasing scale, solidifies to the vendor that you, firstly you have serious intent on buying an asset (you’re not just browsing), secondly it takes away the time and stress invested in the actual search- this can be such a tiresome process where you feel like you can be running around in circles to only end up where you began and thirdly having an industry professional advising you on an investment means that you are going to make an informed decision that will set you up for the long term.
There are so many factors that can really let you down on an unqualified property purchase ie. not knowing future developments that could directly affect you, non-compliance with building regulations,
dodgy renovations that can lead you into an expensive refurbishment cost, high body corps, buying off the plans with inexperienced developers, misjudgement with location and street associations- the list goes on.
With our thorough client consultations, we get to know you and what is really important to you when buying an asset.
When Forming Futures represents you during the search, negotiate and secure process it removes any natural error that can occur during your purchasing process. This enables you to free up your time with your day to day and gives you the opportunity to attain the right property in a quicker time frame.
Latest Project
Laurieton House, Palm Beach
This 1970’s build was in a dream location, backing onto the infamous Jefferson Lane just meters away from stepping foot on the beach. We knew this was a purchase that was all about location, location. An offer was made- sight unseen the evening it was listed online. The following day, the open home had 30 people inspecting, followed by 12 offers. With the art of presentence and not giving up we signed the contract for $480,000 only days later. Within under 10 months we created a 41% (+$200,000) uplift in capital value by investing only $20,000 into an interior upgrade. We knew exactly what the market demanded and had the right team behind us to make it happen.
This is the type of investments we achieve for our clients. We know what is in high demand and how to secure good opportunities which enables us to outperform our clients expectations.
