Signature Buyers' Advocacy

Buyer’s Advocacy Built on Real Trade Knowledge

Because Knowledge Is Power — Especially When You’re Buying

 

Buying property is one of the biggest financial decisions you’ll ever make.

What many buyers don’t realise is this:
your first move sets up your third.

Overpaying at the start can limit your options for years.

At Fate Real Estate, Renovations & Renewable Energy, our Buyer’s Advocacy service is built on something most buyer’s agents simply don’t have — over 26 years of hands-on trade, construction, renovation, and development experience.

Led by Heath Tournier, our service goes far beyond searching listings or attending inspections.

Heath understands property from the inside out — and uses that knowledge to:

  • Protect buyers from costly mistakes
  • Identify hidden risks and future expenses
  • Uncover value others miss
  • Negotiate from a position of strength

Because when it comes to property, knowledge isn’t just power — it’s money.

Why Heath Is a Different Kind of Buyer’s Advocate

Trade-Backed. Experience-Driven. Buyer-Focused.

Heath Tournier is:

  • A licensed contractor across multiple trades, including:
    • Electrical
    • Plumbing & Backflow Prevention
    • Gas Fitting
    • Solar PV & Grid-Connect Inverter Systems
    • Air-Conditioning
    • Communications, Cabling, CCTV & Security
    • Telstra-accredited FTTP, Lead-In & ONT Activation
  • Certificate IV in Building & Construction
  • Fully Licensed Real Estate Agent

Before representing buyers, Heath spent over 26 years working hands-on across the entire property lifecycle — not just selling property, but building it, fixing it, improving it, and adding value to it.

This depth of experience allows Heath to see what others simply can’t.

What This Means for Buyers

Heath doesn’t assess property based on emotion, hype, or surface appeal.

He sees:

  • Build quality and compliance issues
  • Hidden defects and future costs
  • Renovation and value-add opportunities
  • True market value versus the asking price

Because of his trade and development background, Heath can also provide fast, realistic assessments on:

  • Renovation costs
  • Flip feasibility and resale potential
  • Whether a property truly stacks up as a smart purchase

Most buyers don’t know what questions to ask.

Heath already knows the answers.

Buyers’ Advocacy — The Signature Way

Our Buyer’s Advocacy service is delivered as a Signature Buyers’ Advocacy experience — our most considered and comprehensive way to buy property.

  • Strategic buyer representation
  • Trade-backed property assessment
  • Identification of defects, risks, and future costs
  • Clear evaluation of true market value
  • Strong, fact-based negotiation

The Signature Welcome

A Considered Beginning

 

At settlement, a house becomes yours.

As part of our Signature Buyers’ Advocacy service, clients receive The Signature Welcome — a refined house-warming ritual designed to intentionally mark the transition into ownership.

The Signature Welcome includes a curated set of stones selected for their symbolic association with:

  • Clarity— Clear Quartz
  • Grounding & stability— Black Obsidian
  • Transition & flow— Selenite

This is not about trends or beliefs.
It’s about acknowledging a significant life moment and beginning well.

Simple placement guidance is provided, while allowing each client to engage with the ritual in their own way.

We Work Exclusively for the Buyer

As your Buyer’s Advocate, Heath works only for you.

That means:

  • No pressure
  • No rushed decisions
  • No emotional overpaying
  • No conflicts of interest

Instead, you get:

  • Honest advice
  • Clear strategy
  • Strong, fact-based negotiation
  • Confidence in your purchase

Heath doesn’t just help you buy a property —
he helps you buy it right.

Case Study

A Real Example: $250,000 Saved Through Knowledge

 

Leanne and Rob asked Heath to inspect a property their daughter and son-in-law were planning to purchase in Burleigh Waters.

They were prepared to offer $2,400,000.

Before any offer was submitted, Heath:

  • Inspected the property with a trained trade eye
  • Identified structural, renovation, and cost-related risks
  • Spoke directly with the selling agent
  • Negotiated using factual, experience-based leverage

The result:
The property was secured for $250,000 less than the original intended offer.

After settlement:

  • The property valued higher than the purchase price
  • Equity was created immediately
  • The couple refinanced using that equity
  • Renovations were completed
  • This is what we call the winning formula.

Client Testimonial

“Heath’s knowledge saved our family hundreds of thousands of dollars.
What we thought was a great buy turned out to have major cost implications we never would have seen. His trade experience gave us complete confidence from start to finish.”

— Leanne & Rob, Currumbin Waters

The Winning Formula for Buyers

Heath’s proven approach:

  1. Assess the property properly — not emotionally
  2. Understand true value, not the asking price
  3. Identify risks, costs, and opportunities early
  4. Negotiate with confidence and facts
  5. Position the buyer for future growth

This formula has been refined over decades across construction, development, and real estate — and it consistently delivers better outcomes.

  • Want to avoid overpaying
  • Are buying in a competitive market
  • Don’t have trade or construction knowledge
  • Want a true expert on your side
