Traditional Agent vs Property Consultancy:Negating Conflict of Interest

With our consultancy model, we’re not selling you property. Instead, we sell our expertise, local guidance, and two decades of perspective. As such, you have upfront costs but the value is the tradeoff of being able to leverage the bypassed commissions to negotiate lower purchase prices.

We still sign a consultancy agreement outlining Real Assist's responsibilities, service guidelines, and obligations, you are the direct client.

Consultation fee

US$ 66

Scheduled voice or video calls that pertain to anything related to your property search, selection, negotiation, or eventual purchase. We can also discuss general relocation to Phuket, neighborhood deep dives, recommend various service providers, or basically any topic you’d need addressed.

If you upgrade to another service model within 7 days, we’ll deduct the cost of the consultation.

International Schools

US$ 264

Conveyance

For those who are very near reserving a property or starting basic due diligence. We offer comprehensive coordination of title and property verification steps, conducted via Phuket’s Land Department and relevant government bodies. We can’t offer legal advice regarding contracts, but you can hire solicitors/lawyers for contract reviews only–lessening legal fees.

Basic US$ 575 Detailed historical US$ 1,150

Option 3

End-to-end Property Consultation

These are tailored to your needs. The biggest difference here is that you are the front-facing person during all points of your property search. You contact sellers, go out on property inspections, negotiate, settle, etc.. I operate in the background, promptly replying in my role as consultant. This comes at a significantly reduced cost and forgo any commission. You then leverage those savings to the buyer in order to reduce your settlement price.

Fees vary depending on needs; a refundable retainer payment is required, full payment required upon signing sale and purchase contract.
