Tristen Scott Real Estate to lead investors into high-yield property markets across Australia

Seasoned property expert Sarah Dawes has joined Tristen Scott Real Estate as a buyer’s agent, leveraging over 12 years of industry experience to assist investors in securing high-yield properties in Brisbane, the Gold Coast, and South Australia, with plans for expansion into New South Wales and Victoria.

Dawes’ appointment underscores Tristen Scott Real Estate’s commitment to providing investors with expert guidance in navigating Australia’s dynamic property market, identifying prime opportunities, and mitigating risks to ensure optimal returns.

With a career spanning sales, property management, and compliance, Ms Dawes brings a deep understanding of real estate transactions, market trends, and regulatory considerations.

Her extensive background in landlord insurance, professional indemnity, and public liability equips her with a sharp risk assessment capability—an invaluable asset for investors looking to avoid costly pitfalls.

Adding to her skill set, Dawes’ tenure in financial services with MLC, St. George Bank, and AON, coupled with her Diploma of Financial Planning (1–4), provides her with a strong foundation in investment strategies and financing options, further enhancing her ability to guide clients in making well-informed, strategic property decisions.

“Having assessed countless insurance claims and compliance issues over the years, I can quickly pinpoint red flags and help investors make decisions that are both financially sound and risk-conscious,” Ms Dawes said.

She added, “With Sydney’s property market increasingly out of reach for many, Brisbane and South Australia present a compelling alternative, offering lower entry costs and higher rental yields.

My goal is to help investors navigate these markets with confidence and secure properties that align with their financial goals.”

Bringing holistic approach integrates real estate acumen with financial insights, ensuring clients are well-positioned to maximise returns while mitigating potential risks.

Sydney investors looking to diversify their portfolios are turning to Brisbane and South Australia, where market conditions offer significant advantages:

• Higher Rental Yields: Brisbane properties deliver rental yields of 5-6%, compared to Sydney’s 3-4%, enhancing cash flow and investment viability.

• More Accessible Entry Points: Investors can secure a property in Brisbane or Adelaide for $600K–$800K, whereas Sydney’s entry-level market typically starts above $1M.

• Growth Potential: Low vacancy rates and major infrastructure projects in Brisbane and South Australia are driving sustained market appreciation.

• Competitive Edge: Access to exclusive off-market deals and expert negotiation strategies provides Sydney-based investors with an advantage when purchasing remotely.

Supported by an experienced team in Brisbane and Adelaide, Dawes and Tristen Scott Real Estate ensure a seamless purchasing process. Their strong professional network—spanning legal, finance, and property specialists—enables clients to secure high-performing assets with confidence.
