DARREN

DIRECTOR

As the Founding Director of Universal Buyers Agents, Darren Piper is across all the property markets of Brisbane, the Sunshine Coast, and the Gold Coast. Darren’s philosophy is that the secret of success in property is to buy well, not just purely relying on selling right in the future. His underlying knowledge of the property market and the real estate industry has translated to successful purchase outcomes for his clients. Once a real estate agent himself, he is adept at handling negotiations to ensure purchase terms are in favor of the buyer rather than being strong armed by the seller. Attention to detail, honesty and tenacity are some of the principles that Darren subscribes to day in day out, which has led to a strong presence in the media as well as repeat clients over many years.

The Universal brand is redefining the way property is purchased today, disrupting the status quo by working exclusively for you, the buyer. Whether you are buying a self-occupied home or investment property we manage every aspect of the buying process. This includes bidding at auction, assessing, inspecting, negotiating, accessing off-market property, and ensuring settlement is seamless.
