On this episode of The Australian Property Podcast, Buyer’s advocate Amy Lunardi and Rask founder, Owen Rask are discussing how to develop a property brief. They will talk you through what exactly is a property brief, where it should sit within the buying process, and how this differs from your strategy.
So, what is a property brief? A condensed idea (ideally written down) on exactly what you are willing to purchase, this includes budget, location & characteristics of the property.
