Inner West focus

Buying your first home or next home in the Inner West

I work with first home buyers across suburbs like Leichhardt, Annandale, Dulwich Hill, Marrickville, and Ashfield, where understanding price and competition is key. Having someone who understands these areas helps when it comes to knowing what’s realistic and what to expect.

What our clients say

I cannot recommend Rhiannan enough if you're looking to buy in the Inner West. Buying my first home as a single female had felt out of reach for so long, but with Rhiannan I felt like I had found a teammate who could help me navigate the market, making the process less daunting and even a little fun at times. It is entirely because of Rhiannan's expertise and tenacity that I was able to buy my dream apartment only 6 weeks after we started working together. I can't thank her enough!

Rhiannan was invaluable as a buyer's agent in our search for a place in the inner west. She knew the ins and outs, checked for all red flags, and could plainly filter down the breadth of her expertise until it was 'for dummies' (us).



Great communicator and great advocate for buyers in the inner west area. Completely transformed our experience as first home buyers vastly for the better.

Rhiannan was amazing to work with! She went above and beyond to explain everything clearly and was so thorough with her research and advice. We were blown away by her knowledge and attention to detail. Highly recommend!

My wife and I had been searching for a home in Sydney’s Inner West for 11 months with no success. As time-poor professionals, we struggled to keep pace in a market that moves fast and rewards responsiveness, something we couldn’t manage on our own. A friend recommended Rhiannan, and from our first meeting we immediately connected. Before we’d even signed on, she was already inspecting properties for us. Rhiannan is thorough, patient, knowledgeable, and an excellent communicator who took all of the stress out of the process. After 11 months of frustration, we bought our new home, off-market, just 22 days after engaging her, one that ticked every box. We couldn’t recommend her more highly. She’s not only an exceptional buyers agent, but someone you genuinely enjoy working with.

Why Sourced Property

Why buyers choose to work with me

Independent and buyer focused

I don’t sell property or work with vendors, so the advice you get is impartial and based on what makes sense for you.

Hands-on throughout

You deal directly with me the entire way through, with no handovers or layers in between.

Small client load

I only take on a limited number of clients at a time, so I can stay involved and move quickly when it matters.

Local Inner West knowledge

My advice is grounded in what’s actually happening across suburbs like Leichhardt, Annandale, Dulwich Hill, Marrickville, and Ashfield.

Focused on getting it right

The focus is on understanding price, vetting property properly, and making sure the decision holds up over time.
