O'Connell Buyers Advocate

Lachie's work ethic is hard to beat. He consistently kept me updated on market movements and new listings, often responding to calls and messages after hours and on weekends. He is an excellent communicator and demonstrated first-class local knowledge; he truly knows his stuff in this area. His commitment meant I never missed an opportunity in the competitive Ballarat market. His advice was consistently genuine and not pushy, giving me the confidence to make informed decisions.

Working with Lachie was a wonderful and uplifting experience. We worked together in collaboration so that I could help purchase a property for his client in Adelaide SA. Lachie is kind and easy to communicate with. He is responsive and knowledgeable in property acquisition and a deep range of property experience to benefit his clients. I would highly recommend working with Lachie and his team. Michelle Lewis

Lachie was easy to deal with and his professional, no-fuss approach ensured a smooth process for his client.

Lachie is very professional, thorough, and has excellent local market knowledge. His knowledge of Ballarat combined with his attention to detail and transparent advice, gave me complete confidence throughout the process. Highly recommended!

Lachie was able to provide me with essential information such as cash flow examples, which explained all monetary stages that gave me a clear understanding of what I needed to know before purchasing any investment property. We then came up with a 6 month plan. Lachie showed true professionalism and was very reliable and easy to deal with. I look forward to dealing with him again soon.

I have worked with Lachie on numerous occasions, he has always been very good with communication and liaising between myself and his client to achieve the best results for both sides. His understanding of the market is a real asset and I look forward to further work with him in the future

Lachlan hugely assisted my husband and I to buy an investment property in Townsville. As we live in Torquay VIC, we were hugely naive about the market up in Townsville and relied on Lachlan to guide us the whole way through. From the very beginning, he was nothing but reliable, responsive and trust worthy. When getting the deal done, Lachlan always had our best interests at heart and advocated to get the best outcomes possible for us. We are already thrilled with our investment as it is continually going up in value- thank goodness we listened to Lachlan and trusted his expertise! We couldn’t have asked for a better buyers advocate and would highly recommend him to all our friends and family. Thanks so much Lachlan!

Lachlan assisted my partner and I to purchase our first investment property together, in Townsville. With no prior knowledge of Townsville, we were sceptical about the process of purchasing a house without seeing it ourselves. However, Lachie was excellent in instilling confidence in us. We instantly felt as though we were in the right hands, with ongoing support and options from start to finish, while feeling no pressure or time frames on our decisions. There was no stress involved as we purchased the house we were looking for at an ideal price, something we would not have otherwise been able to do while working busy jobs. His expertise in the field and contacts made the process so smooth in such a competitive market, putting us in touch with all the best services to make our investment property a breeze in the future. We couldn’t recommend Lachie more with his personable yet proficient service as we felt valued and heard through the entire purchase! Thanks again!

I had the pleasure of working Lachlan from O'Connell Buyers Advocate for a mutual client, and I couldn’t be more impressed with Lachlan’s professionalism and dedication. He truly went above and beyond to ensure our client was well informed about making the choices for their property. Lachlan helps buyers navigating the market with his expertise and provides invaluable insights along the way. His communication and collaboration makes the process seamless, ensuring everything aligns smoothly from the property search to finance approval. I highly recommend Lachlan from O'Connell Buyers Advocate to anyone looking for a buyer’s advocate who is knowledgeable, reliable, and focused on achieving the best results for their clients.

Jo and I are immensely grateful for the help Lachie gave us in the purchase of our first home, a wonderful flat in Hawthorn East. Both of us work and Lachie was able to visit potential places and give us his opinion of them in respect of the criteria we had worked out with him. When he visited places with us, his industry and carpentry knowledge was invaluable. He pointed out issues we would not have noticed and advised us on small renovations that might make the place fit our needs better. He came up with a number of possible properties and his professional knowledge, presence and attitude was invaluable during the negotiation processes. Lachie has also been helping us with ideas and his tradie connections for the small changes we need to make to our new home. We have no hesitation in recommending Lachie as a buyer advocate for anyone wishing to purchase their next home.
