JOB OVERVIEW

Job Description

We are an Australian property investment and buyer’s agency business looking for an experienced Property Research VA who has previously worked with an Australian Buyer’s Agent or Property Investment Company.

This is not an entry level role.

If you have not worked in the Australian property industry before, please do not apply.

We are specifically looking for someone who understands how Australian property acquisitions work and can assist with researching investment opportunities, analysing suburbs, and preparing property acquisition reports.

You will be working directly with the principal buyer’s agent to identify high-quality property opportunities and investment strategies.

Accuracy and attention to detail are critical in this role.

Your Responsibilities

You will assist with:

• Suburb and market research across Australian locations
• Identifying subdivision, duplex and granny flat potential
• Analysing zoning and council planning controls
• Reviewing recent comparable sales and rental data
• Preparing property investment research reports
• Assessing development potential and planning restrictions
• Researching off-market and acquisition opportunities
• Supporting the buyer’s agent with property acquisition analysis

This role requires analytical thinking, not just data collection.

Mandatory Experience (Non-Negotiable)

Applicants must meet all of the following criteria:

• Previously worked with an Australian Buyer’s Agent or Property Investment Firm
• Strong understanding of Australian property terminology and processes
• Experience conducting suburb and property investment research
• Ability to prepare structured property research reports
• Familiarity with Australian planning and zoning controls

This role is not suitable for general real estate VAs without Australian experience.

Preferred Tools Experience

Highly regarded if you have experience using Australian property research and planning tools such as:

Property Data Platforms

• CoreLogic / RP Data
• PriceFinder
---------- and Domain research tools
• SQM Research
• Suburb analytics platforms

Planning & Development Research

• NSW Planning Portal
• Local Council LEP and DCP controls
• DA Tracker systems
• Zoning and minimum lot size analysis
• Section 10.7 Planning Certificates

Mapping & Land Information

• SIX Maps / Spatial Viewer
• Nearmap or aerial mapping tools
• Sewer service diagrams (Sydney Water / Dial Before You Dig)
• Flood and bushfire planning overlays

Market & Rental Analysis

• Comparable sales analysis
• Rental yield analysis
• Vacancy rate research
• Suburb growth trends

Reporting & Research Preparation

• Google Sheets / Excel
• Google Docs
• CRM systems used in Australian real estate

What We Are Looking For

We want someone who is:

• Extremely detail-oriented
• Able to analyse property investment opportunities
• Capable of preparing clear and professional research reports
• Comfortable working independently

This role supports real property acquisitions, so research accuracy is extremely important.

Application Instructions

To apply, please include the following:

The name of the Australian company or buyer’s agent you previously worked for

A sample property or suburb research report you prepared

A short explanation answering this question:

How would you check if a property in NSW allows subdivision or duplex development?

Applications without this information will not be reviewed.

Important

This role is not a training position.

We are specifically looking for someone who has already supported a buyer’s agent in Australia and understands the property research process.
