Angela
roomr (formerly LocalAgentFinder) enabled us to find the right agent for us. It was easy to compare various agents by comparing their sale history and fees.
Bronwyn
Very happy with the agent we chose. 3 agents contacted us from your site. One stood out, which was Aaron Hart for Harris North Real Estate. He was pleasant, easy to deal with and secured a great price for our property.
Jane
roomr (formerly LocalAgentFinder) helped me cut through the dozens of agents in my area, see real reviews, transparent prices and arrange to have relevant agents pitch to me. Through this process I met an agent who had a philosophy on selling that made sense to us, and together we achieved an excellent result.
Stuart
I was contacted by several real estate agents to manage my property. One was excellent. I was happy with roomr (formerly LocalAgentFinder) as a service made the decision easier.

Frequently asked questions
How much do real estate agents charge in Sydney?
Sydney real estate agents typically charge 1.8% to 2.5% commission plus marketing costs of $2,000-$8,000. For a $1.3M property, total agent costs range from $25,400 to $40,500.
What's the best way to compare real estate agents in Sydney?
Compare agents based on recent sales in your suburb, commission rates, marketing strategy, and client reviews. Interview at least 3 agents before deciding.
Should I choose the cheapest real estate agent?
Not necessarily. Focus on value - agents who achieve higher sale prices often justify higher fees. Compare net proceeds after all costs, not just commission rates.
How long does it take to sell a house in Sydney?
The average time to sell in Sydney is 28-35 days, but varies by suburb, price range, and market conditions. Experienced local agents typically sell faster.
When do I pay real estate agent fees?
