The person you deal with
Paul founded Merritt Property Group on a simple position: understand why someone is investing before showing them a single property. Most engagements start with “do you want a coffee?”, not a brochure.
We are truly independent. We act for you alone, with no developer commissions and no stock to move. And we are property investors ourselves, so we know exactly what the decision feels like from your side of the table.
More about Paul and how we are paidThere is no account manager and no handover to a junior. Paul is the one at every step. Step one is only a conversation. Nothing is signed, nothing is sold.
Paul gets to the heart of why you are investing: retirement, the kids, income. Your reasons shape everything that follows.
Paul builds the strategy with you, then sources properties that match it, many off market. You see the figures behind every option before you decide anything.
Paul negotiates, manages the purchase through to settlement, and keeps an eye on the portfolio as markets move. Same person, start to finish.
We are paid by you, never by a builder or a developer. That single fact changes every recommendation we make.
You earn well but the money is not building anything
Plenty of Australians on solid incomes, tradies especially, get to their forties with nothing working for them outside the day job.
You do not have 20 hours a week to research markets
Suburb data, builder contracts, rental appraisals, land releases. It is a second job. That is the job you hand to us.
You have heard the pushy pitch before
We are paid by you, never by a builder or a developer, so nobody is moving stock onto you.
Merritt Property Group is an independent buyer’s agency based in Queensland, Australia. We help everyday Australians build a property portfolio, specialising in new house and land packages in growth areas Australia-wide. We act for the buyer only, never for sellers or developers.
You tell us your goals and budget. We research markets, source properties (many off market), do the due diligence, negotiate the price and manage the process to settlement. You make every decision; we do the legwork and act only in your interest.
We charge the buyer a fee for the sourcing and purchase work, agreed up front before we start. We take no commissions from sellers, builders or developers, so our advice is not tied to any stock we need to move.
Yes. Self-employed income needs more paperwork, not a bigger deposit. Many of our clients run trade businesses. Lender policies differ a lot for ABN income, which is why we work alongside brokers who know self-employed lending well.
A free 15-minute call about your situation and whether we can help. No pitch, no obligation.
