What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Interstate purchasers and out-of-town buyers are the customers whose experiences shape most of the commentary on Tropical Life Buyers Agency, and Troyson Bassani, commonly called Troy, is named in almost every account. He responds quickly to questions, including the many raised by one buyer's spouse, and keeps the dialogue going as a decision nears. His grasp of the local market is raised frequently, and reviewers tie it to the assurance they felt when assessing a suburb, a property's worth and the factors worth weighing before committing.

Pre-purchase inspections appear regularly among the services described, with a thorough report on an apartment and its complex, illustrated by photographs and video, arriving shortly after the visit. A tailored approach is another recurring point, illustrated by a Sydney couple whose weekend was filled with fifteen viewings spanning beachfront, rainforest and settings in between. Honesty, dependability and considered guidance come up repeatedly, as does flexibility when a buyer's own schedule shifted, along with a readiness to consult a broader network for additional input. Longer-term associates also value sound consultation on complicated matters, backed by northern Queensland familiarity and commercial judgement.

We engaged Troy provided comprehensive professional advice and guidance as we were purchasing interstate. Troy expert industry knowledge of the real estate industry of the local Cairns area and was very honest while going through the process. The wife had a hundred questions that Troy was happy to answer and always provided feedback when we needed to know something. He also provided advice on location, property value and what to consider when purchasing an investment property. Thanks to Troy’s advice and support we were able to purchase a property in 4 weeks which suited all or our requirements and needs. Highly recommend Troy for anyone looking for a Buyer's Agent.

If I could give 0 stars I would. After sourcing me a property in the worst street imaginable - I terminated my contract with Troy. It's in the contract that he will refund 50% of the deposit if the contract is terminated which he has failed to do and since completely ghosted me. Wouldn't trust him with anything.

Troy assisted in locating a property quickly and professionally. He provided some good insights regarding both the property and the area.

From the moment I began my house-hunting journey, Troyson stood out as a buyer’s agent. His responsiveness was second to none, always available to answer my queries and provide insightful advice. His knowledge of the Cairns housing market was impressive, providing me with the confidence I needed to make informed decisions. One of the highlights of working with Troyson was the personalized experience he provided. Receiving pictures from viewings made it feel as though I was there in person, which was incredibly helpful given I couldn't attend in person. But where Troyson truly shined was in the negotiation process. His expertise and tactful approach led to a smooth transaction. I encourage anyone thinking of using a buyer's agent in Cairns to check out his YouTube content and to book a meeting.

We used Troy to purchase a property in Cairns from interstate. The experience from start to finish was really smooth and calm. He listened to and really understood our brief, was flexible when we had some delays on our end, gave thoughtful advice and tapped into his network of contacts to get extra advice and info on things when needed. We couldn't have bought the property we did without Troy's expertise, service and advice. Would use Troy again and would recommend anyone else looking to purchase in FNQ to engage with Troy.

Troy provided comprehensive professional advice and guidance for me through the whole process of me purchasing my first home. Troy has high level expert industry knowledge of the real estate industry of the local Cairns area and was very honest in his assessment of the properties I was looking at. He also provided advice on price range, location, property value and what to consider when purchasing a home. Thanks to Troy’s guidance, advice and support I was able to purchase a home which I’m very happy with and that suits my needs.

We used Troy to find our tropical holiday home. As we are Sydney based, and short on time, he organised a brilliant packed weekend where we saw 15 houses. He made sure to offer a mixture of homes from ones directly on the beach, to the rainforest and in between. In the end we chose an elevated house in the trees close to the beach that was the best of both worlds. Highly recommend if you want someone with local knowledge who will make the process as seamless less as possible.
