OHPG’s ability to source properties that are not publicly listed and close deals before going to auction have been invaluable to us in saving time and money (i.e. for our last property, they were able to facilitate the purchase in three days flat and $100k below the expected price). However, the thing that sets them apart from other companies is undoubtedly their integrity – having now purchased two properties with their services, we are confident in recommending them as buyer’s agents that always act in the best interests of their clients, while being fully open on the pros and cons of each purchase option.

We have been looking for a family home for about four months. After several failed attempts, we decided to engage OH Property. When we first inspected the place, we were amazed how it checked all the boxes. Henny then worked her magic and we exchanged that same night! We did not lose a single night of sleep, although Henny did as she was working while on holiday from Europe! Thank you Henny and team, it would not have been possible to purchase our family home without your help. We are never buying again without you guys.

After spending well over a year searching for a new home in a really tough market and with no luck, we looked to Henny & Oliver for help. Our preferences and budget had us looking in a very competitive bracket, about which their knowledge and experience was extremely valuable. They had great contacts and their dedication and professionalism was second to none. They are so thorough in their search and went above and beyond to secure us a great home, in a great location, perfect for our little family! We could not be happier and really appreciate every they did for us (including the pep talks along the way)!

Thank you for helping us buy our first home! After many months of searching with no success in this confusing and heated Sydney market, we enlisted Henny and the team’s help to increase our chances. Henny is incredibly driven and passionate about finding the best house for us that’s within our budget. Time after time, she has proven herself to only act in our best interests. Also, the team is amazingly detailed in the search and the due diligence process, countless times they have pointed out things about a house that our untrained eyes have missed. Something that we’ve definitely relied on is Henny’s relationships with the real estate agents. The trust she’s built over the years with the agents have certainly help us in several occasions along the way. I would highly recommend these guys! Looking back, we now know there were so many things that we were doing wrong and we probably would not have been able to purchase anything yet without their help.

After a couple of near misses, our confidence and hopes for securing a nice home within our budget were waning. We decided to contact OH Property Group after hearing about them through North Shore Mums. Like many of their other clients, we wish we had called them sooner! This was our first home purchase and our knowledge didn’t extend far past watching TV real estate shows. We needed an advocate, someone who would be straight up with us giving us a dose of reality, someone who would tell us which properties not to waste our time on and which ones we would be crazy to pass up. …

We found Henny and Oliver’s service to be very professional while also very personal. They took time get to know us, our family and our needs. They were on the journey with us. We likened our home search with Henny and Oliver to having a personal trainer for real estate. We had a shared target and they helped us to stay focused on that target. They worked tirelessly inspecting homes so that with our very limited time (and two impatient small kids) we only had to visit ones they felt had real potential.

We had had a particular area in mind when we engaged OH Property Group. While agreeing to search that area they were also very realistic about it, particularly in today’s fast-moving market. From the outset they suggested we think about a suburb nearby that we hadn’t considered. Eventually we checked it out and are so glad we did. We are now in a lovely community that is very “us” and are glad we didn’t buy in our original preferred suburbs. We have no doubt that our spacious and comfortable home is a great investment, it ticks all the boxes of the wishlist we gave Henny and Oliver. We would definitely recommend OH Property Group.

We had been searching for a our “forever house” for seven months, to no avail and were becoming more and more discouraged by the aggressive market conditions (eg. foreign buyers with endless pockets of cash) and lack of supply. Finally, after hearing rave reviews about OH Property Group from several other families, we decided to make the investment in using a buyer’s agents. From the beginning, we felt like someone had our backs in this crazy market: there was a clear strategy and tactical plan for searching and acquiring a property. Also, we felt much more confident having Oliver and Henny negotiate a pre-auction offer, as they knew the market, the selling agents and had done due diligence on every aspect of the property we were interested in. …

That’s another thing – Oliver and Henny are like real estate CSI agents – they look at every aspect surrounding the property you are interested in order to make an extremely informed decision about whether or not to buy and then how much to offer, and whether or not to buy before or at Auction. They really look at the property inside and out to make sure you are not buying a can of worms.

Another aspect that really struck me while working with Henny and Oliver was that we thought we were their only client while they were working with us… That may sound unrealistic, but the amount of attention to our search was impeccable and the finer details were never overlooked.

Bottom line: if we had to buy all over again, I would not hesitate for one second to hire Henny and Oliver. My only regret is that we didn’t hire them earlier in our search.

Buying a home is hard enough and when you are purchasing from overseas, it is even more daunting. Not knowing potential locations well, the real estate market and real estate general “know how” is even more difficult. Which is why we decided to use a buyer’s agent to assist us.

We chose the OH Property Group – Henny and Oliver, as they were upfront about managing our expectations and had strong knowledge of the areas we wanted to look at buying into, as well as those real estate tricks and tips that are key, including access to properties not yet on the market. …

Henny and Oliver were great holding our hand throughout the process – from helping us narrow down areas, finding the right property and devising the the best strategy to secure the property, which we did.

The time between engaging OH Property Group to exchange of contracts was two weeks – we are so happy with our new home and the ease of the process. We believe we saved many days, weeks, months and money by working with Henny and Oliver. We would recommend them to anyone purchasing from overseas, but also for local purchasers.

I was randomly browsing through internet for general information on buyers’ agent. I found Henny, and people have written good reviews about her.

I work overseas but need to acquire in home in Sydney before I retire. There is only limited time that I can spend in Sydney to enable me to look for a home to purchase. At first I was skeptical. I was not sure how I could convey my property requirement to Henny in a few lines especially when I am not the sort of people who could express myself very well in words. After several telephone conversations, showing Henny examples of the properties that I like and a description of my overseas dwelling, Henny managed to work out my likes and dislikes. …

She works very hard. She is also willing to talk over the phone late at night and on weekends.

At the Auction, Henny and her team acted very professionally. I managed to successfully purchase my home through Auction at a price that is slightly lower than the vendor’s agent’s indicative price. And I think I would also engage a buyers’ agent for my next purchase.

My wife and I were introduced to Oliver Stier by a very good friend during the course of last year. Up until this point we had been toying with the idea of purchasing a property in Australia for many years and had a few unsuccessful attempts. It was becoming painfully obvious that we needed to re-calibrate our approach unless we wished to continue with the emotionally draining process of missing out on the few properties which met our particular requirements.

My wife and I recently settled on a property in the North Shore which we are very happy with. As we are based overseas, Oliver was invaluable as our ‘boots on the ground’ during the inspection process and co-ordinated the purchase seamlessly. There was a time during the negotiation process where Oliver told us to not to increase our offer price. This advice was based on Oliver’s reading of the prevailing circumstances and the likely interaction that the vendor’s agent was having with her client. This advice literally saved us many multiples of his fee. My wife and I have engaged Oliver to manage our property whilst we remain overseas, and we have even started a dialogue about acquiring a second property. Good times.

Expat Singapore

More than two years ago, we started looking to upgrade from our apartment to a house. We started going to houses in areas that we wanted to live that was listed within our price range every Saturday. I knew what I wanted in a house and as we went on, every house we saw fell short, felt undecided about or we had no idea whether it was within our budget or not. After a missed opportunity at an auction where I got scared off and uncertain during bidding, and lots of occasions where we were out priced right at the start of the auction, we took a break from searching (thanks to a new arrival in the family) and found that even if we wanted to keep looking, the market has moved beyond our budget.  Our confidence in ever finding a house waned. …

After I went to a property seminar that Henny presented at, I realised that in this competitive market, (on top of an ever busier schedule) we needed help from an expert! My husband agreed for us to meet with Henny and Oliver, since he thought that they would be able to advise us if we should be looking in other suburbs. Henny and Oliver listened to my long list of requests, spoke to us about what was realistic for our budget and helped me change the way I think about how to work around those wants and needs so that we can still find a house in the suburbs that we want and within our budget.

As we engaged their services, we started visiting properties that Henny suggested each week that were within our budget and much closer to what could work for us. After the open homes, she gave us a breakdown of the good and bad of each place to help us decide what to do next. Having a second opinion (and from a practiced eye) really helped us be more decisive. She noticed a lot of things we missed while going to open houses with our kids in tow, and attended open homes when we couldn’t.  We were thoroughly impressed with their knowledge of the area and the market and the real estate agents. As our search went on, they proved themselves spot on with their estimates of the expected sales prices of properties we viewed. Henny worked really hard to understand what we were looking for and shared an understanding of my concerns as a mother of young kids. We were never pushed to like or buy something we thought that wouldn’t work for us and they were ever patient with my questions and my uncertainty about a property. Even as I started worrying that we would be priced out again, Henny was cheerily and reassuringly confident that we can still get a house we wanted where we wanted. After searching all this time I thought for sure we could be a rare example of someone who they couldn’t find a property for, but 3 months in, they led us with a brilliant strategy to the exchange of contracts on a property against another bidder (with deeper pockets)! It was a relief to have them take care of everything from organising building and pest inspection to delivering the final winning offer on a busy work day.

To be honest, I kind of hoped that a buyer’s agent would be magicians who could find me house completely fulfilling my criteria and well below my budget, but in this current fast growing seller’s market, I realised that what the most important things they did for us, was work with us to be realistic about what we can get with our budget, help us look at a property for all its potential, help us avoid disasters by making sure we are making well informed choices, and made sure that when a property came along that we wanted, that we got it without over-paying for it. I really believe that we would have given up on getting a house in the suburbs we wanted if we didn’t have their help. I just wished we got them on our side a lot earlier!

    What Our Clients Say

    • Henny and Oliver moved quickly to help us to secure the property at a great price. This was before the house has even been listed for sale. I have no doubt that it would have sold for a much higher price had it been put on the market.
