8 questions

Is becoming a Buyer’s Agent easy?

Firstly, performing well in anything requires consistent effort, discipline, and diligence. Becoming a Buyer’s Agent is by no means easy, and if you expect it to be easy, we would strongly suggest you do not embark on a career as a Buyer’s Agent.

Is it guaranteed that I will do well like other members of BAI?

Absolutely not. The results of any BAI member that you see is not a guaranteed reflection of what you will achieve. There are members in our program who do not achieve the results that they expected – that is part of the process. You should not be making decisions based on other people’s results. We recommend that you believe in yourself and commit to applying effort based on your individual objectives.

At BAI we showcase success to demonstrate what can be achieved – just remember, not everyone gets the results they want, that’s how the cookie crumbles, so don’t fool yourself.

What is a Buyer’s Agent and why do people use them?

Buyer’s Agents are licensed professionals who do the fiddly parts of buying properties for their clients. They do the searching, locating, evaluating, and negotiating of the purchase price on behalf of their clients. They are not Real Estate Agents who sell properties and work for the seller, Buyer’s Agents represent their buyer 100 percent.

They also represent and support their clients at auctions by bidding and negotiating for them, to remove the emotional impulsiveness that can put a buyer in hot water at the auction.

Their inside knowledge and relationships made with real estate agents can save the buyer money because of their ability to have their finger on the pulse of the market.

If the buyer has a strict budget, a Buyer’s Agent will adhere to it and not push them over it like a lot of Real Estate Agents might.

Can I enrol with BAI if I am working, and complete it part time?

Yes, of course. In fact we recommend it.

Working while training is a great way to plan before you execute. It gives you the space to train and upskill, while not having to worry about rushing into a new profession to pay the bills, allowing you to perfect and implement your learnings. The old saying, slow and steady wins the race, applies here.

On a side note, some of the world’s greatest entrepreneurs stayed in their day jobs even after they got started.

For example, Phil Knight kept his accounting job when getting Nike off the ground. Larry Page and Sergey Brin were studying full time when they started Google. There are many more examples like this.

How is the program content delivered?

The Buyer’s Agent Institute Accelerator Program content is delivered in an online environment which can be completed at your own pace, to work within your other commitments. You just need a computer to participate and be hungry to learn. Our members are all over Australia and some are even based internationally.

We pride ourselves on coaching and mentoring outside of the online course environment. We have coaches that train our members in a live format every week of the year – called coaching clinics.

These coaching clinics focus on:

  • Property research and analysis
  • Mindset
  • Technology and business systems
  • Marketing & Automation
  • Sales
  • Owner Occupier service delivery
  • General Q&A
  • Client management and fulfilment
How long is the program?

This coaching and training organisation is not designed for you to show up and become an overnight expert. That takes time for any new skill, but in this institute, you will learn everything you need to know to slay the market.

The Buyer’s Agent Accelerator Program is designed to be completed over 8 weeks – with the Rapid Accelerator guiding you through it over 8 x weekly coaching sessions – however you can complete it at your own pace. We have designed the entire program, both online and coaching so you are supported and able to ask for help any time along the way.

During and after the Accelerator Program there is ongoing training every week of the year to embrace and activate ongoing learning. Our coaches run live coaching clinics every week, 50 weeks of the year, and once you are in the Buyer’s Agent Institute Accelerator Course you can attend weekly coaching clinics run by our coaches for the first 6 months of your subscription.

What happens after the training?

We don’t just leave you with the training and that’s all. We provide mentoring, coaching and support groups along the way and help you to place in the industry depending on what your goals are. We have different levels of programs, coaching and mentoring available for you as you become a star in the Buyer’s Agent Industry.

For example, once you have completed the Accelerator program, we have an Everest Program which provides members with ongoing coaching and mentorship. We provide this ongoing support because we want to see you succeed.

Is it a requirement to have worked in real estate to enrol in BAI?

No. However, you will need to get a real estate licence to work in the Real Estate Industry, dependent on your situation and objectives. BAI does not provide qualifications pertaining to licences. Think of BAI as an upskill or next level up from a Real Estate Agent, BAI unlocks your potential to skyrocket your income.

We have done the research for you on what you need to be a Buyer’s Agent, starting from not knowing anything about the industry, and will share everything we know with you.

Can you help me with job placement within the industry once I am a Buyer’s Agent?

Absolutely! BAI is a part of a large community of business owners who are always looking for the next up and coming star. No matter what role you suit, we will know someone in our community looking for new talent. Someone like you. BAI is not just a learning Institution; it is a community of supportive members who look out for each other.
