Who we are

We work for you.
Not the seller.

Most buyers searching in Tasmania are up against local buyers who know the streets, the history, and which properties to walk away from. That gap costs real money.

Timar levels it out. David Zerna and Ben Brownless are based in Hobart and work only for buyers. No selling arm. No referral deals. Just clear advice from a team paid by you, with access to properties that never reach the portals.

Why Timar

Built-in advantages
your agent doesn't have

Our edge

The tools most agents don't have. The access most buyers never get.

01

The Timar Ratio Tool

A valuation and yield framework built on actual Tasmanian transaction data. It calculates true investment performance, not just advertised rental returns. It spots underpriced assets before the broader market does.

02

Six-Star Suburb Profiling

Every suburb is assessed across six dimensions: infrastructure investment, population trajectory, employment diversity, price-to-rent ratio, amenity score, and liquidity. Only the ones that score well across all six make our shortlist.

03

Off-Market Access

A significant share of Tasmanian property never reaches the portals. Through years of local relationships with agents and property owners, Timar surfaces properties that other buyers simply never see.

04

We Work Only for You

Timar has no referral arrangements with agents and no developer relationships. Our only obligation is to you. Every recommendation is made on the property's merits alone.

How It Works

brief to settlement
