Virtual Buyers Agent(TM)
DIY research gives you direct control over sources and process. Virtual Buyers Agent provides a defined workspace for recorded facts, assumptions, documents, and outstanding checks.
Your own process across listings, recent sales, calculators, notes and professional conversations. Covers anything you choose, in whatever order you choose.
One reusable workspace per property, with the same checks each time and open items left visible until you record their status. It does not replace the professionals.

What DIY research does, and what this workspace does.
Virtual Buyers Agent
Every plan, including Free. Plans differ by volume, not by feature.
DIY Research
Varies entirely with the process you create.
Capabilities that sit outside this software workflow.
Before you have a specific property to add, direct research can help you explore locations, listings, and the questions you may want to investigate later.
Working directly with formulas, reports, source material, and professional questions can help you understand how your own research process works.
Virtual Buyers Agent does not assess school catchments, commute times, neighbourhood character, or other personal lifestyle considerations. Direct research can cover those factors.
Where a self-directed, source-labelled workflow may fit the work you want to do.
The Property Hub keeps saved details, missing information, source labels, assumptions, documents, and Open Tasks together.
The same workspace structure can be reused for each property you add without rebuilding the layout yourself.
The document checklist keeps supported building, contract, and strata checks unresolved until you record their status. Licensed professionals remain responsible for the underlying review.
Each property uses the same workspace structure, while your inputs, sources, and professional checks remain property-specific.
What the workflow is
Nothing above changes what the work is. The workspace asks the same things in the same order, whatever else you decide to use alongside it.
The properties you are actually weighing up, in one place, with the listing, the notes and the numbers attached to them.
The same named checks open on every one — the rates, the levy, the documents, the settlement costs.
What you saw, recorded against the property while you still remember it, rather than left in a photo roll.
What is still needed, visible, so the decision is made with the gaps in front of you.
You may not need to. Virtual Buyers Agent offers a reusable workspace, supported calculations, source labels, document tasks, and Open Tasks. Compare that scope with the process you already use.
No. You still need to inspect the property, verify source information, assess qualitative factors, and obtain the legal, financial, building, tax, or other professional advice your circumstances require.
Do not rely on either label alone. Check the source, as-at date, coverage, user input, and assumptions shown for each figure, and independently verify material information before acting.
Try the checking half
