An Australian Property Guru or a 'go to' person for any advice relating to buying a residential property in Melbourne, Ritesh has advised hundreds of homebuyers in the last 10 years. Originally from India, he arrived in Melbourne with $ 3,000 in 2007 and bought his first property in 2013. He realized early on that investing in property is one certain way to create wealth and therefore started buil

ding his property portfolio. After working for 5 years in the accounting and finance profession he realized his real estate calling and moved to the real estate industry working as a real estate agent for about 3 years which taught him the selling side of things that he now uses to his advantage as a buyers agent. Given a collective work experience of 22 years, he is known for his charming personality and is liked by everyone around. With 10 years of experience in transacting properties, an unmatched passion for the real estate industry, and a genuine desire to help other property buyers, he started 'Nest or Invest - Buyers Agents, which now enables him to offer independent and unbiased advice to home buyers. A true family man at heart, during his free time he loves socializing and helping his wife with household chores. He also enjoys spending time with his 8-year-old son and playing board games with him. In his buyer's agent business, he uses the latest advanced technologies like big data, AI, and machine learning to source property data that is generally not available to the general public, and that way he is able to help homebuyers by offering them professional advice hence saving them substantial time and money.

Four recent investor clients, four purchases

Investor client 1
A couple wanted a property with a big block that can be subdivided. I helped them buy a $670k established house with 781 sqm land with potential subdivision down the track.

Investor client 2
A client looking to grow their SMSF was thrilled with a $535 k near-new established 4 2 2 house built by Metricon with 668 sqm land. At just 2 years old and renting at $600pw, it’s giving them a 6% yield and peace of mind for retirement.

Investor client 3
Another interstate client was nervous about buying in VIC first time. We found a renovated/established house, renting at $415 pw, a 6% yield with low entry cost.

Investor client 4
An experienced investor wanted strong returns inside super. The result? A $540k renovated/established house purchased, delivering 8% yield and $800 pw rent. Their SMSF is smiling.
