Unicorn Buyers Agents Sydney

Dan Sofo was our buyers agent during a very hot market period where it was extremely challenging to secure a property without going through a great deal of stress and uncertainty. Dan knows his business, he knows real estate agents and how to negotiate with them. Furthermore he is able to snap off-market properties which is a big plus in a competitive market. Dan is extremely professional, ethical, honest and transparent and will always aim at assisting his clients in getting the property that meets their needs and expectations, at a good price (market price or within the client's budget). Dan became almost part of our family" during this hectic house hunting period with daily texts and phone calls

Dan was very helpful acting as my buyer’s agent in a property purchase in 2021.Regrettably, when I was looking to sell another property a few months later, our previous, very positive relationship, took an unpleasant turn. I felt Dan was pushing a particular vendor’s agent on to me (though of course, the ultimate decision was mine). He sent me a text message in no uncertain terms, actively discouraging me from using another agent in I had been considering to represent me in the sale. I believe Dan knew this other agent well and had given them a five star rating on their own website…yet was very strong in his language with me, telling me not to use this person. To me, it made a mockery of the whole rating system, and I felt during this process that Dan had lost his impartiality and objectivity.In April 2022, I asked Dan to remove the testimonial I made on his website, as I no longer felt comfortable with it. Dan agreed that day - “no problem”. A couple of weeks later, I noticed the testimonial still there and asked Dan again to remove it.Mid-November 2022 I noticed my testimonial was still on Dan’s website and ask him again to remove it. This time, I have received no response.This is a real shame – I thought Dan was a nice man and, at the time of my purchase, I trusted him with my life. It is disappointing afterwards to see his lack of follow-up when he agreed to remove a reference when I no longer felt comfortable.I would still include Dan in a list of recommendations as a buyer’s agent, as he gave me some valuable advice (which I paid for). However, our subsequent dealings have left a slightly unpleasant taste in my mouth.It is now close to eight months since Dan agreed to remove my testimonial from his website - and I have followed up a couple of times since then. Had he acted on this, my review here could have been avoided. He has had plenty of time to do what he said he would do, but I think he has just moved onto the next transaction.

Thanks Dan for helping find and secure the perfect home for our family!It was amazing being able to enjoy our weekends, knowing Dan was scouting places on our behalf and would arrange for us to see any which he thought met our needs. He also handled pre auction negotiations expertly to secure the property despite tight competition.

We recently engaged Dan at Unicorn Buyers Agents to find, negotiate and ultimately purchase our first home.After our initial meeting, Dan understood the position we were in and what we were after. He was regularly in contact providing updates on properties he had viewed on our behalf and within a month we had purchased our first home.His knowledge of the industry is incredible as is his ability to negotiate. Without Dan we would have paid significantly more for our home.We will definitely be using Dan and Unicorn Buyers Agents if we are ever in the market again.

We connected with a few buyer agents and then finally met Dan. We felt a great connection with him as he understood our requirements and outlined the process in a simplified way. Knowing our budget, we gave Dan the criterion to find us an apartment, however, our ideal choice was a house. We are still surprised that how Dan presented us the option of the house and then helped, guided and supported us to close the deal professionally. We highly recommend Dan to anyone who is looking for professional, knowledgeable and skilled buyers agent.

We engaged Dan through a recommendation from a friend to bid at a critical Auction for us as we were nearing the end of our pre-approval period and risking a significant reduction in borrowing capacity. In our particular case, we were lucky that the bidding was focused around our level of affordability but I am confident that Dan's approach kept the bids as low as possible while securing us our property. He was extremely thorough in his research to support the process - both in deciding to take on the job and to inform our expectations so we can set bidding limits that we were comfortable represented the true value of the property to us. We've been in our new family home for a week now and couldn't be happier to be here, for the price we paid. Thank you Dan for heling to make it happen!

It was a lot of fun looking for our first home with Dan. He is funny, charming, smart and makes an immediate connection with you. We are first time buyers who are new to Sydney property market. Dan did all the research work, coordinated with agents on our behalf and was always prompt with his replies. Through the process he educated us about what we should and should not be looking for. He definitely challenged us at every step. He will not let you slip into an emotional spiral making sure that you don’t overspend and get the best value for your buck. He is an absolute delight to work with.
If you are a first time buyer (like us), an investor or moving to a bigger family home, Dan is your go-to person. I am glad that we went ahead with Dan.

Fraught with first-home-buyer, house-hunting fatigue I turned to Unicorn Buyers Agency. Within 4 days I had my dream apartment in Sydney.Dan worked quickly to arrange an inspection, develop a wholistic profile of the property including its intrinsic value and price appraisal.Dan’s professional networks within the realestate community ensured a seat at the negotiating table as pre-auction offers were made whilst I completed my due-diligence.It seems counterintuitive for any buyer, let alone a first homebuyer, not to put all your money toward your deposit - but a buyers agent is the best investment you can make at this time in your life.Armed with Dan’s expertise in the field and market I had the confidence to pursue the property, someone to guide me through the legal maze and ensure that the property and conditions of sale were fair. But perhaps, most importantly, an assurance that the long term prospects and potential for improvement of the property would continue to increase in value.I’m stoked!I’ll be seeing the New Year in from my top floor balcony, looking out across the city skyline and toasting to Dan who secured me my dream first home! I’ll be grateful for the next 30 years!!

Dan is incredibly helpful, knowledgeable and generous. He made the process of buying our place in Sydney way less stressful, and helped ensure we got it for a good price. Worth his weight in gold.

Dan was very professional and courteous, it was an absolute pleasure for us to deal with him.His professionalism and knowledge of the market are second to none. His experience in auction was outstanding, he bought the house at the lowest estimate for similar houses in the same area, so on top of saving us time, effort and stress, he also saved us money,And his services didn’t not stop then. He kindly introduced us to trusted D&C companies for renovation work. I can only praise Dan and his work. I would highly recommend his services.
