  • What Our Clients Say

  • “We had an outstanding experience with whitsundays property buyers as our buyer's agent. They were incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and truly understood our needs. Communication was excellent every step of the way, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide in finding our property and highly recommend Drew and Lara to anyone looking to buy with confidence”

  • Drew and Lara have just helped me buy my first home, and I can’t imagine having to do it on my own. Their service is worth every cent! Highly recommend!

  • “We were referred to Drew and Lara from Whitsundays Property Buyers, and as first-time clients of a buyer’s agent, we didn’t quite know what to expect. Now, we can confidently say it was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. Buying a property is stressful enough, but buying one sight unseen in an unfamiliar area is a whole new level of challenging—until Drew and Lara stepped in.

    From the start, they went above and beyond, bringing a wealth of knowledge and dedication that made all the difference. They secured us an incredible price, better than we had even hoped for, and ensured that every term was in our favor, not the seller’s. Even after the purchase, they continued to offer support, making sure we felt confident and cared for throughout the entire process.

    If you want a team that’s fully in your corner and dedicated to exceptional results, Drew and Lara from Whitsundays Property Buyers are the ones to trust. Highly recommended”

  • “Drew and Lara are absolutely lovely to work with. They went above and beyond to help us secure the right property for us. From the very first enquiry email to settlement to getting us a property manager to help rent our property. Made the whole process very easy”

  • “My husband & I were NSW buyers trying to secure our next family home in QLD. One enquiry later we crossed paths with the amazing Lara. Lara was our eyes between boarders as we were unable to fly due to Covid lockdowns. Her communication, professionalism and honesty to meet our search brief was one of a kind. I would highly recommend Lara to anyone searching for their next property in the Queensland Landscape”

  • "Lara was a pleasure to work with, she balanced our needs as purchasers with the needs of the home owners . She has a genuine approach & her communication was clear & timely which helped with a smooth sale. I would not hesitate to recommend Lara to friends & family”

  • “Drew listened to all our concerns without trying to push us into a sale. He was very good communicating with us and never left us wondering where we were in the process or what was happening. We felt safe dealing with him as he is very trustworthy”
