Latest Episode
Expressions of interest (EOIs) have always left buyers with more questions than answers, and they’re about to become more common. Under Victoria’s new disclosed reserve rules, many agents are steering vendors away from auction and toward EOIs.
Both methods now require the reserve to be disclosed. But knowing the reserve doesn’t fix the real problem with an Expression of Interest (EOI): buyers still can’t see the competing offers, the conditions attached to them, or how the process will play out.
In this episode, Jarrod explains what’s changed and what buyers should ask before submitting an offer.
- Why agents are favouring EOIs over auctions under the new rules
- What auctions give buyers that EOIs don’t – and why the disclosed reserve won’t close that gap
- The key questions to ask on contracts, competition, conditions, timing and the offer process
- How to turn the answers into a strategy, whatever process the agent runs
