# The Realta – Property Buyer's Agency > Australia's first buyers agency where you Learn & Buy property at the same time. The Realta builds personalised property strategies, sources locations using data, and secures the right property so every purchase is smarter than the last. ## About The Realta is a licensed Melbourne buyers agency founded by Rocky Rana, a property investor and Principal Buyers Advocate with over 20 years of experience in the Australian property market. Rocky holds Real Estate Agent Licence No. 091606L and leads a team of eight property professionals operating under Real Estate Agency Licence No. 0921021L. The agency was built on the belief that every property buyer in Australia deserves the same level of independent, expert representation as experienced investors.

Clients receive a full five-star buyers agency service AND walk away understanding the exact system used — so they can repeat the process independently. Two dedicated team members are assigned to each client: a Client Success Manager and a Property Acquisition Manager. Typical time commitment for the client: approximately 5 hours for the entire process (vs. an industry average of 565 hours and 20 months for independent buyers). ## Process 1. **Discovery Call** (free, 15 minutes) — understand goals, budget, suburbs, timeline 2. **Strategy Session** (45 minutes) — develop personalised Strategic Brief 3. **Property Search** — source listed, off-market and pre-market properties; review ~60 properties per client before presenting one 4. **Due Diligence** — assess against 147 criteria, cashflow forecast, building and pest inspections 5. **Negotiation** — private sale or auction representation 6. **Settlement Support** — coordinate conveyancer, inspections, insurance 7. **Post-Settlement** — six-monthly portfolio reviews and performance reporting Typical timeframe: 2–14 weeks from sign-up to settlement; 8–14 weeks to secure a property in the active search phase. ## Coverage **Melbourne:** All areas including inner suburbs (Fitzroy, Richmond, Brunswick, Collingwood, Preston, Coburg, Reservoir, Essendon, Moonee Ponds, Footscray, Williamstown, St Kilda, South Yarra, Hawthorn, Camberwell, Balwyn, Box Hill, Glen Waverley, Doncaster, Ringwood, Bayswater, Moorabbin), northern growth corridor (Craigieburn, Donnybrook, Mickleham, Mernda, Greenvale, Meadow Heights, Bundoora, Sunbury), western growth corridor (Werribee, Tarneit, Point Cook, Melton, Wyndham Vale, Hoppers Crossing), south-eastern growth corridor (Frankston, Cranbourne, Pakenham, Berwick, Dandenong, Narre Warren), outer east (Lilydale, Mooroolbark, Ringwood, Bayswater, Belgrave). **Interstate:** Sydney, Adelaide, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Perth, Darwin, Tasmania. ## Data & Research Methodology The Realta tracks more than 4 million variables every month across Australian suburbs, including population growth, infrastructure investment, employment data, rental demand, vacancy rates, median price movements and days on market.
