What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Thorough market knowledge and patient guidance stand out as the qualities buyers return to most often when describing their dealings with this Hobart buyers agency. David, frequently alongside Ben, is named repeatedly for the depth of his experience across the Tasmanian market and for taking the time to understand each client's requirements before any property is inspected. Several buyers describe being kept informed at every stage, with questions answered promptly by phone, text or email, and documentation that arrives detailed and clearly explained. Purchases are reported as smooth and quick, including first homes, investment properties and an off-market house secured without the usual stress, with negotiation producing prices below expectations.

Interstate and overseas buyers mention the reassurance of having a trusted local representative who sources research, arranges inspections, coordinates property management and handles settlement logistics remotely. The friendliness of the team is noted as much as its expertise, with clients describing dealings as straightforward and enjoyable. Repeat engagements and referrals feature across the feedback, and the recurring thread is confidence that the agency will find the right property and manage the process from strategy meeting through to contract signing.

We’ve used Timar Buyers Agency twice - once for an investment property that’s already seen strong growth, and again to secure our dream block of land. Their local knowledge, due diligence and expertise were invaluable, and without them, we likely would have overpaid on the investment property and missed out entirely on the block of land. If we're in a position to purchase again in Tasmania, we will engage their services. Highly recommend!

Timar Buyers Agency is top notch. David & Ben worked with us to find the perfect investment to add to our portfolio. Their communication and appetite for detail was impressive and the wealth of knowledge they possessed was evident within the first catch up. David and Ben are patient and generous with their time. Both are genuinely great blokes. We found the perfect property with Timar and we had a lot of fun along the way. Will be using them again and highly recommend this agency.

We were so fortunate to engage the services of Timar Buyers Agency, particularly of David. We were living in NSW at the time and we needed an agent familiar with the area we were wanting to purchase in. David made the whole process extremely easy and saved us lots of time and money to find us our dream house in Shearwater. He has a dedicated team behind him that acts quickly to perform the concise research, which allowed us to make an informed decision promptly. David kept us advised during the whole process, and made time to video call us whilst we were overseas. David has the contacts with agents and legal representatives, which ticks all the boxes for purchasing. We would highly recommend David and Timar Buyers Agency

David and Ben were amazing from start to finish. From my very first conversation with David, I knew I would be fully supported throughout the entire process. They both took the time to ensure I understood every step and genuinely guided me through the whole journey. They were incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and clearly very experienced within the property market. Their insight and understanding of the market gave me a lot of confidence throughout the buying process. Having a somewhat unique situation, they went above and beyond to make sure I was looked after and felt supported at every stage. I’m beyond grateful and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better buyers agency. I would absolutely use Timar Buyers Agency again in the future and highly recommend them to anyone looking for genuine support and guidance when purchasing a property. Thank you both so much.

David and the team were first rate in their care and dedication to helping us buy an investment property. Being from interstate, we had little knowledge of the area - David was thorough in his documentation, explanations and gave his time freely to help. Highly recommend!

I recently had the pleasure of working with David and Ben at Timar buyer agency to secure an investment property in Hobart, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. David’s expertise was instrumental in guiding me through the complexities of the buying in such a competitive market. He was always available to answer my questions, whether via phone, text, or email. He also kept me informed at every step, which made the experience much less stressful. What truly set them apart was the personalised service. They took the time to understand my preferences and needs, which resulted in a tailored home search that aligned perfectly with what I was looking for. I highly recommend both David and Ben at Timar Buyers agency.

David and Ben from Timar Buyer’s Agency have delivered on their promise and found the right property for us. The entire process was easy and totally stress free from the strategy meeting to signing the contract. Beyond that, David managed to negotiate a price that was well below the expected figure. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome.
