Our Vision
Australian Hotspot Advocacy (AHA) was established to specifically support investors in residential real estate. We are a research driven business with a national approach.
Traditionally vendors have been well represented by selling agents in the property transaction, whilst buyers were left to fend for themselves, which can be a very daunting and stressful time. We believe that buyers should receive an equal level of support and professional advice when making such important purchasing decisions. We empower our clients with extensive market knowledge, along with access to a wider network of properties whilst providing exceptional negotiation skills to deliver the right outcomes every time.
According to the Australian Financial Review, in 2022, there were 2.22 million property investors in Australia, with 1.75 million of those owning more than one investment property. This suggests that nearly 80% of investors are not able to reach the second stage of portfolio growth.
At AHA, we are proud to have assisted hundreds of clients in overcoming these obstacles and developing substantial and profitable property portfolios. If you have a desire to do the same, we would love to hear from you.
