Meet Nathan, a Senior Property Consultant at Search Property. With a background in client onboarding and a total of 11 months' experience in the industry, Nathan brings a fresh yet deeply insightful perspective to property consulting. Before joining Search Property, Nathan worked with another Buyers Agency, where he honed his expertise in guiding clients through their investment journeys. His passion for learning the intricacies of the real estate market is complemented by a commitment to helping clients make informed decisions with confidence. Nathan is focused on building strong relationships and values transparency, communication, and integrity as he works to guide clients toward their financial goals.
I began my career in property in 2023, starting off with a buyers agency in client onboarding. I found Search Property through Ravi’s YouTube videos and did not hesitate when I was offered a position here in mid-2024. I love learning the ins and outs of the industry, and my understanding has only been accelerated by working with so many experienced professionals who have built their own portfolios.
As a client onboarding specialist with knowledge in the real estate industry, I love guiding clients through the intricacies of their real estate investments. My ability to maintain clear, effective communication allows me to take on client concerns and provide them with the right guidance throughout the onboarding process. I keep a keen eye on current and historical market trends and conditions so I can help clients understand the risks and benefits of investing. This streamlines the process and helps them begin their journey with the right professionals, without the stress of doing everything alone.
My role is challenging because property is a major investment. My value is in taking the time to help people break down their questions and uncertainties. I provide detailed explanations of the process of buying and portfolio building, and engage with the necessary parties to give clients the right guidance. It’s always smart to make informed decisions, especially in property, and helping clients cover every base necessary means they can have educated confidence in their future.
My personal approach focuses on being empathetic and supportive of each client’s unique situation. It is crucial to recognise that every individual is different, with distinct needs and requirements. My dedication to client success stems from understanding that if I were in their position, I would seek the best possible outcome. I feel it is my responsibility to ensure clients are always satisfied with the service they receive.
As a real estate professional, the values most important to me are transparency, communication, and client-centric service. I believe in maintaining clear and honest communication with clients, ensuring they are informed and confident throughout the onboarding process. Transparency in transactions builds trust, while a focus on client-centric service ensures that every decision and action taken is in the best interest of the client. These values guide me in providing a seamless and positive experience for clients, helping them navigate the complexities of real estate investment with confidence.
Updated: One of my most rewarding success stories was helping a first-time investor who had been told that they would be waiting a long time to have enough borrowing power to buy. I organised a conversation with one of our brokers who had a wealth of understanding of lending requirements, and they were able to unlock significantly more borrowing power than they thought they had. We then created a purchase strategy to ensure we put that capacity to the best and safest use. We helped them buy into a rising market, and they are now on track to make their next purchase much sooner than they had even planned to make their first.
Outside of work, I focus on self-development. Taking control of my physical and mental abilities helps me in all aspects of work and life. I am currently studying finance, working toward a qualification as a broker and other aspects of personal finance. This will make me a more well-rounded professional, better equipped to navigate complex situations and better serve people in all aspects of their investment journey.
The real estate investment sector is rapidly evolving, with new information and digital advancements enabling clients to make more informed decisions. These innovations will provide clients with real-time data and tools to accurately assess opportunities and risks, making real estate investing more transparent, efficient, and accessible than ever before.
Professionally, I aim to empower individuals with a deep understanding of the long-term benefits of real estate investing, continually enhancing my skills to better support and educate clients. I am committed to sharing valuable insights and helping clients make informed investment decisions. On a personal level, I aspire to build my own portfolio of properties, applying my knowledge to grow and manage a diverse portfolio. Additionally, I would like to focus on self-growth, dedicating time to personal development and expanding my capabilities to excel both personally and professionally.
