Editorial assessment

What we love

  • Explicitly no selling arm, no referral arrangements with agents and no developer relationships — an unusually clean independence statement.

  • Around 60% of purchases are made before public listing, which matters in a market as thin as Tasmania's.

Where it falls short

  • Founded in 2020, so a shorter track record than the mainland firms on this list.

Timar Buyers Agency is top notch. David & Ben worked with us to find the perfect investment to add to our portfolio. Their communication and appetite for detail was impressive and the wealth of knowledge they possessed was evident within the first catch up. David and Ben are patient and generous with their time. Both are genuinely great blokes. We found the perfect property with Timar and we had a lot of fun along the way. Will be using them again and highly recommend this agency.

We were so fortunate to engage the services of Timar Buyers Agency, particularly of David. We were living in NSW at the time and we needed an agent familiar with the area we were wanting to purchase in. David made the whole process extremely easy and saved us lots of time and money to find us our dream house in Shearwater. He has a dedicated team behind him that acts quickly to perform the concise research, which allowed us to make an informed decision promptly. David kept us advised during the whole process, and made time to video call us whilst we were overseas. David has the contacts with agents and legal representatives, which ticks all the boxes for purchasing. We would highly recommend David and Timar Buyers Agency

David and Ben were amazing from start to finish. From my very first conversation with David, I knew I would be fully supported throughout the entire process. They both took the time to ensure I understood every step and genuinely guided me through the whole journey. They were incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and clearly very experienced within the property market. Their insight and understanding of the market gave me a lot of confidence throughout the buying process. Having a somewhat unique situation, they went above and beyond to make sure I was looked after and felt supported at every stage. I’m beyond grateful and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better buyers agency. I would absolutely use Timar Buyers Agency again in the future and highly recommend them to anyone looking for genuine support and guidance when purchasing a property. Thank you both so much.

I recently had the pleasure of working with David and Ben at Timar buyer agency to secure an investment property in Hobart, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. David’s expertise was instrumental in guiding me through the complexities of the buying in such a competitive market. He was always available to answer my questions, whether via phone, text, or email. He also kept me informed at every step, which made the experience much less stressful. What truly set them apart was the personalised service. They took the time to understand my preferences and needs, which resulted in a tailored home search that aligned perfectly with what I was looking for. I highly recommend both David and Ben at Timar Buyers agency.

David and the team were first rate in their care and dedication to helping us buy an investment property. Being from interstate, we had little knowledge of the area - David was thorough in his documentation, explanations and gave his time freely to help. Highly recommend!

CompareMyAgents Editorial

The bottom line

Tasmania has very few genuinely buyers-only agencies, and Timar is the clearest of them: no listings, no developer relationships, and a stated 60% off-market purchase rate that matters in a market this thin. Founded 2020, so it is younger than most on this list — weigh the local depth against the shorter track record.
