At LocalAgentFinder, you can compare commission rates, sales history, performance data, marketing strategies and homeowner reviews to help you choose an agent based on their overall profile, rather than just how much their fees are.
We provide our service free to homeowners. How do we do it? We make money by charging your chosen real estate agent a referral fee once they have sold or rented your home. They agree to this fee when they sign up with LocalAgentFinder.
We provide you with agents based on your property requirements and preferences, and we charge all agents the same fee.

At more than 2.5 million square kilometres, WA is Australia's largest state. The property market varies significantly between areas. While Perth holds approximately 75% of the WA population, areas such as Port Hedland, Broome, Geraldton, Kalgoorlie, Mandurah, Bunbury and Albany all have significant populations as well.
WA's economy, population and property market are all closely linked to the mining industry. With the mining boom now over, there has been a gradual slowdown in population growth and a downward trend in property prices as a result.
When deciding on your agent, price is just one factor to consider when you compare agents in your area. Every region across WA is unique, with local economies being influenced by different factors. So along with an agent who charges reasonable fees, you need to be looking for one with knowledge of the local economy as well.
the agent must show a strong history of successful property sales, particularly in the last 12 months.
as well as the agent, you need to look at the agency they belong to, and whether the agency has a good track record of sales in your area.
it's imperative they have a thorough understanding of the local market. This includes average house prices, current demand, buyer demographics, and average turnaround times.
this can differ between agents, so you need to choose an agent who has a strategy in tune with your own way of thinking about your property
if the agent has sold properties similar to yours, they will have a much better idea of how to market and sell your property successfully.
if the agent isn't quietly confident in what they do, they're not likely to inspire confidence in potential buyers either.
there's no better recommendation than a satisfied customer, so they need to have genuine testimonials from previous clients (such as those available on LocalAgentFinder).
real estate is about people, so they need to be a people person, able to engage with and relate to potential buyers on their own level.
