This week on Taking Back Saturday, we’re diving into one of the biggest frustrations facing Brisbane buyers: hidden price ranges and the lack of clear asking prices on listings.

If you're seeing properties in your saved searches that are expecting to and selling over your maximum budget, you’re not alone—and it’s not necessarily the agent's fault.

We're breaking down how REA (realestate.com.au) actually works behind the scenes, from how price bands are created to why you're seeing properties way outside your range.

We’ll show you two simple ways to uncover the hidden price range of any listing, and explain why this issue is less about agent trickery and more about the way the platform is built.

Plus, we share our top tip for saving time and stress.

Whether you're house hunting in Holland Park, Newmarket, or anywhere across Brisbane, this episode will arm you with the knowledge to avoid open home disappointment and take back your Saturday.
