The Suburbanite Difference

INDEPENDENT ADVICE

Unlike other firms, Suburbanite, never work for developers, and do not sell developer stock. So, you can be sure that the advice is independent and we’re always looking after your best interests. Our policy is that we do not give or receive kickbacks at any time. This differs from some firms who source investment properties through developers – in other words, they are paid by the developer to sell the property.

TAILORED STRATEGIES

Suburbanite understand every investor is different. Some firms develop just one strategy,

then sell that to all their investors, but we do not believe in a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach to investing. We feel that every investor will have different goals and will require different strategies. What worked for one person may not work for you. So, we tailor every strategy to suit each individual investor’s needs.

HIGHLY QUALIFIED EXPERTS

All of Suburbanite’s advisers are qualified property valuers with extensive industry experience. Many property investment advisers are self-proclaimed ‘experts’ that have owned a few investment properties, and now they advise people on their greatest asset. At Suburbanite, our team are among the most experienced property investment advisers in the country.

Who we work with

We work with people who want a wealth creation strategy through property. Mum and Dad investors throughout the country, first-time investors, SMSF, time-poor executives, expats and savvy investors wanting to take their portfolio to the next level. We also help first home buyers trying to get on the property ladder through strategy such as rent vesting and busy business owners that want to use property as a vehicle to reduce tax whilst building wealth for their future.

Glenn helped us purchase a property as a buyers agent about three months ago. He was recommended by our broker. We feel we cannot thank him enough for the service he has provided to us. Purchasing a property is a very stressful and painful process and Glenn makes it easier for us. Not only he negotiated the price as a buyers agent, he also provided valuable advice and guidance during the whole purchase process. We think that he is a very kind, genuine, informative and thorough professional for what he does. He also made us feel that he was the …

We engaged Glenn to help us deal with the complex side of buying a house such as researching the property, dealing with negotiations, providing professional advice in terms of how to manage the process and connecting us with the right people for finance and legal support. Glenn helped us successfully procure our forever home in a very challenging market. We can’t thank you enough for the support and guidance you provided.

Glenn Newbery exemplifies the highest levels of professionalism, knowledge, communication and ease to deal with. From the initial consultation right through to multiple purchases and constant portfolio monitoring Glenn has made the whole investing experience easy and enjoyable. It is only because of Glenn that we have multiple investment properties within our portfolio which over the years, has not only been well balanced, it has also shown exceptional growth. I highly recommend Glenn to all investing beginners right through to avid investors. His wealth of knowledge and commitment is second to none.

Glenn assisted me in expanding my property portfolio by developing a tailored strategy and mapping out a 10 year plan to achieve my goals. He provided invaluable support in my purchase of 3 properties in 9 months to complement my existing portfolio in line with this strategy. He is genuine, down to earth and when he talks about his real life experience, his passion for property is clear. I would highly recommend Glenn to both seasoned investors and especially those who don’t know where to start!
