Julie Crockett offers a free mini course, "Your Competitive Edge Is Your Brand" https://courses.juliecrockett.com.au/offers/3p4KX2GZ;

Julie Crockett hosts the Buyer Agent Networks podcast for buyer's agents focused on professional, best-practice service and strategy-led, "borderless" operations.

She discusses how recent tax changes affect the buyer's agent role and outlines differing best practices for owner-occupiers versus investors. For owner-occupiers, she emphasizes managing emotion, providing crystal-clear processes, detailed client checklists, strong communication, and comprehensive due diligence (e.g., fire, flood, heritage, noise) while helping families future-proof needs like schools, work access, lifestyle, and community.

For investors, she stresses detailed goals and strategy sessions, a robust buyer brief, number-crunching, area research, CMAs, high-level due diligence, and clear communication, while noting outcomes cannot be promised. She predicts fewer transactional "property finder" models and more collaboration with accountants and financial planners to structure purchases and reduce tax risk.
