In this episode, Scott and Melinda are joined by behavioral finance expert and economic futurist, Evan Lucas, to unpack what’s really driving buyer behaviour in Brisbane’s current property market.

In this episode of the Brisbane Property Podcast, Melinda and Scott Jennison break down one of the most misunderstood aspects of property buying in Brisbane: understanding who actually represents you during a real estate transaction.

Many buyers still believe that the friendly selling agent at an open home has their best interests at heart but that’s far from the reality. This episode unpacks the clear differences between sales agents and independent buyer’s agents, revealing how their motivations, responsibilities, and legal obligations diverge.

Learn about the common tactics used in the industry that can mislead or pressure buyers, and why independent advice is so critical in Brisbane’s competitive property market.

Whether you’re a first-time buyer, seasoned investor, or simply curious about the role of a buyer’s agent, this episode will help you navigate the process with more clarity and confidence.

Tune in to understand the difference between help that’s offered and help that’s actually on your side.
