According to realestate.com.au<\/a> when Jordan Navybox opened a buyer\u2019s agency in Brisbane seven years ago, few Queenslanders had even heard of the term.<\/p>\n

At the age of just 21, he had been working as a buyer\u2019s agent in Sydney and realised the potential that existed in the Brisbane and southeast Queensland market.<\/p>\n

He cold called Simon Cohen (the Luxe Listings Sydney<\/a> star), who he believed was the best in the business in Australia.<\/p>\n

\u201cI told him I loved his brand and that I\u2019d love to start a business with him in Queensland,\u201d Mr Navybox said.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s when Cohen Handler Queensland was born, and billions of dollars worth of deals have since been negotiated.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the beginning, I realised there were no other buyer\u2019s agents in Brisbane,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople would say; \u2018We don\u2019t need buyer\u2019s agents to sell our properties\u2019. They would even say; \u2018We\u2019re not in Sydney, mate!\u2019<\/p>\n

Since then, Mr Navybox, who is Queensland\u2019s highest grossing buyer\u2019s agent, has grown the business to 17 buyer\u2019s agents across the state and 115 clients actively engaged in finding a home at the one time.<\/p>\n

He alone handles 30 client on average at any one time.<\/p>\n

Last year, the business purchased more than 300 properties, worth around half a billion dollars.<\/p>\n

Mr Navybox said his business had an 80 per cent market share of properties bought for over $3m, and at least a 50 per cent market share of all properties bought through a buyer\u2019s agent in Queensland.<\/p>\n

Confidentiality is paramount to keeping his little black book full of good contacts and repeat buyers, but it\u2019s well known he has worked with high-profile clients such as developers Rob and Andrew Gray, singer Conrad Sewell, basketballer Aron Baynes, and cricketer Chris Lynn.<\/p>\n

But he stresses buyer\u2019s agents are not just for the wealthy.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery client has a different budget, whether they be investors, developers, commercial buyers, or home owners,\u201d Mr Navybox said.<\/p>\n

\u201cLast week, we bought one property for $320,000 and one for just over $10m.<\/p>\n
