I Work for You — Not the Seller

I'm Thad. I started Property Lookout after watching people I know miss out on properties — not because they couldn't afford them, but because they were up against experienced selling agents with no one on their side. That felt wrong, so I got my licence and started doing something about it.

If you're buying in Aranda, I know what properties here are actually worth, where the value traps are, and how to negotiate effectively. I take on a small number of clients at a time so every search gets real attention.

Buyers only — never sellers. No conflicts of interest.

Small client base — you're not just a number.

Licensed, local, and across all ACT suburbs.

Local Knowledge

Buying in Aranda: What You Need to Know

The ACT property market has some important differences to other states. Here's what every buyer in Aranda should understand before making an offer.

Seller-Provided Reports

In the ACT, the seller must provide a building and pest inspection report as part of the contract. You review it before committing. This is unique to Canberra — most other states leave inspection to the buyer.

No Cooling-Off Period

Unlike most states, there is no cooling-off period in the ACT — even on private treaty sales. Buyers sign a Section 17 certificate to waive it. Finance pre-approval before you make any offer is essential.

Leasehold Land Titles

All land in the ACT is Crown leasehold, typically a 99-year lease. This is different from freehold ownership in other states but works similarly in practice.

Off-Market Opportunities

A meaningful share of properties in Aranda trade without ever being publicly listed. As your buyers agent, I have relationships with selling agents across the suburb that give you early access.
