I owe my sanity to Lou and his team. As a fairly naive first home buyer, I felt overwhelmed by the process - until I found LP Advisory. I wish I'd known about buyers' advocates earlier - I would have engaged Lou for the whole shebang! As it was, his negotiation service was outstanding.Having Lou on my side, with his market knowledge and well-established relationships with agents, significantly reduced the stress of searching and buying. At all times his manner was reassuring, calming and supportive, and his advice and recommendations were clear, realistic and grounded in experience.I'm incredibly grateful for Lou's guidance and deftness, incredibly chuffed that he was instrumental in helping me buy my first property, and incredibly sure that you should engage him promptly if you are looking for a buyer's advocate. Thanks Lou and Alana! More...

Lou and Alana were brilliant from the start. They sourced my dream flat in a tightly held complex, in quick time and for a great price. They found a flat that had everything and more on my wishlist. However, it was not for sale or even listed off market. Lou went the extra mile and negotiated a sale with the previous owner. Lou and Alana know the market inside and out. They really look out for their clients. They are great communicators and a pleasure to work with. I couldn't be happier with LP Advisory and would recommend them to anyone looking for a property in Melbourne. More...

From the very first moment I reached out to LP Advisory, I felt an immediate sense of confidence and reassurance. Lou and his team were clear, honest and caring. It made me feel like I wasn’t just another client, but someone they genuinely wanted to help. Buying your first home is a huge milestone, and doing it from interstate while juggling a demanding job felt almost impossible. But Lou and Alana made it not only possible, they made it seamless.They took the time to understand my needs, my budget, and my lifestyle, and tailored their advice accordingly. Every step of the way, they were there - whether it was answering my late-night questions, finding and inspecting properties, or just checking in. Their knowledge of the property market is second to none, and their expertise in the Melbourne market is a testament to their experience buying and selling properties.I couldn’t be more grateful for their guidance, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone navigating the property market - especially first-time buyers.

The team at LP Advisory were outstanding! Lou, Alana, and Sharyn helped us secure an incredible off-market property in Melbourne and made the whole buying process stress-free. They were attentive, knowledgeable, and their experience guided us through every step of the buying process with ease. Their market insights, the dedication to their clients, their network and their intimate understanding of Melbourne locations and connections gave us access to a property we never would have found on our own. What really stood out was how genuine and supportive they were — it never felt transactional. They truly cared about finding the right home for us, not just any home. If you’re looking for experienced buyers advocates that you can trust in for locations across Melbourne, who will go above and beyond to make your purchase seamless and stress-free, we can’t recommend LP Advisory enough. We are absolutely thrilled with our new home and so grateful to this amazing team for making it happen! Thank you so much guys.. You were amazing. More...

From my initial conversation with Lou and intro to Alana all the way through to settlement, I hand on heart could not have engaged a more caring and professional buyers agent team to embark on a house hunting journey. Lou and Alana went to work taking into consideration all my preferences and budget and didn't sweat it when I felt prospective property's were not for me and/or when I needed to travel overseas for work. When the right property came up, Lou was quick and decisive in getting the deal done and for an added flourish co-incided contract sign off to be on my birthday. Thanks to LP Advisory, I now have a home that I couldn't be happier with and a birthday memory that will be with me for many years to come! Richella More...

My wife and I could not be more grateful for the exceptional service we received from Lou and Alana at LP Advisory. Over the past eight months, they have been our trusted guides in the challenging Melbourne property market, and thanks to them, we are now the proud owners of our very first home! From the very beginning, Lou and Alana's approach was nothing short of exemplary. They were incredibly thorough, taking the time to truly understand our needs and tirelessly scouting and inspecting properties with us. Their expertise and honest advice were invaluable at every step.What truly sets them apart is their genuine empathy and support. When the market took a downturn and we had to temporarily pause our search, they were patient, understanding, and encouraging. We never felt pressured; instead, we felt like we had true partners who were invested in our journey.When it came time for the auction, Lou's skills as a negotiator were on full display. He represented us with confidence and an incredible level of strategic thinking, ultimately securing the property for us. It was a masterclass in negotiation, and we have no doubt that we wouldn't have won the auction without him.If you are looking for a buyer's advocate, look no further. Lou and Alana are an absolute dream team. We give them our highest possible recommendation and will be forever thankful for their help in making our dream a reality. Five stars is too less for how we would like to rate them! More...

The initial stages of anything can be rough, but buying a house is next-level stressful. You reach a point where all you can do is sit back, cross your fingers, or say your Hail Marys—if that’s your thing. It’s frustrating, even excruciating. But this is where expert advice and industry knowledge can be an absolute game changer—and for us, it truly was. I cannot recommend LP Advisory highly enough, especially Lou Lihari, who went above and beyond to help my partner and me secure what we plan to be our dream home. From our very first conversation, Lou’s expertise, professionalism, and deep market knowledge were crystal clear. He took the time to genuinely understand our situation—we had already found the property, the one where we envisioned our two miniature dachshunds running around the backyard. From that very first phone call, it was like a valve had been released—the pressure was off, and we knew we were in the right hands. What truly sets Lou apart is his next-level strategic approach to negotiation. His industry connections, insights, and advice were invaluable, and we have no doubt that we wouldn’t have achieved such a fantastic outcome without him. He handled everything seamlessly, turning what is usually a stressful process into something smooth and, dare I say, even exciting. If you’re looking for a buyers agent who genuinely cares, works tirelessly for your best interests, and delivers outstanding results, Lou Lihari and the team at LP Advisory are simply the best in the business. You won't be disappointed! More...

I was recommended LP Advisory by a colleague as my partner & I needed the help of a Buyer's Agent to purchase our first property, and I can wholeheartedly say that reaching out to Lou and Alana was one of the best decisions we ever made!

They made the entire buying process stress-free. You can tell they are both seasoned professionals who know exactly what they are doing - they know the market and have exceptional people skills. Not only did they get us the property we wanted, and negotiated a great price, they organised everything that was needed. I had 100% trust in them every step of the way and they will always be my first call when it comes to buying/selling property.

We are very grateful to them both and cannot recommend them highly enough!

If someone turns to you and says that finding a new home on your own in Melbourne in 2024 is easy, ask them what they are drinking and where you could buy some. ..

The reality is that it is not easy.

We started out on our own and found only frustration and disappointment, whether it was auctions that went well above our price range (lots of 'emotional' bidders) and private sales that disappeared within hours of listing. It felt like no matter how hard we tried, finding the right place for the right price was becoming more and more unlikely. We had an area in mind, a reasonable budget and a type of house in mind but what we lacked is the way to make those three things connect.

That is when we found LP Advisory.

We got a reply on the same day, an invitation to a discovery call and a clear idea of what was on offer.

We were immediately struck by Lou and Alana's professional yet compassionate approach to finding a home. They listened, made themselves easily contactable and available as well as being an active presence when inspecting potential properties.

Long story short, we got our new home within weeks of engaging LP Advisory

What were the benefits?
- Professional service with previous experience in real estate, particularly in the area we were looking in,
- Approachable and affable, easy to speak with and work with. It felt like house hunting with old friends to be honest,
- Open, accessible contact options
- Comprehensive assessments of properties, options and active negotiation on your behalf to get the best outcome for you,
- Results. Excellent results.

Thank you LP Advisory for helping us find our first family home. Somewhere that we can be proud of and make our very own.

Recommend without hesitation

Q&As

Helping clients secure the right property, on the right terms, is genuinely rewarding. Every brief is different, and every search is personal. We enjoy navigating the market on our clients’ behalf, solving problems before they arise, and using our experience to get a result they couldn’t achieve alone. Seeing the relief and excitement when the deal is done is the best part of what we do.

We established LP Advisory to deliver a level of service and advocacy buyers rarely receive. After decades in the industry, we saw how valuable it is for buyers to have someone experienced protecting their interests, cutting through sales pressure, and guiding them toward the strongest outcome. We built a business focused purely on the buyer — independent, strategic and committed to long-term client results.

Clients work with us for three clear reasons:

Tailored, personal service — your brief drives the strategy.
Deep market access — strong agent networks across Melbourne’s inner suburbs.
Results — proven negotiation and auction wins across all price points.

We care about the outcome, we do the work properly, and we stay with you right through to settlement.

Initial meetings can be held online, in person or over the phone. Property inspections, due diligence and negotiation are conducted in person to ensure accuracy and a high standard of assessment.

Services

End-to-end representation across the entire buying journey: brief, search, inspections, due diligence, negotiation, auctions and settlement support.

Professional representation on auction day, designed to remove stress and give you a strategic advantage.

Ideal for buyers who have found a property. We manage negotiation, pricing advice, due diligence, contract review coordination and agent communication.
