Question 1

Is this financial advice?

Accepted Answer

No. Heyward is analysis software. We don't operate under AFSL. The agent surfaces facts, math, and patterns, you decide.

Question 2

How is this different from a buyer's advocate?

Accepted Answer

A buyer's advocate works on one deal at a time, typically charges $8K–$25K per purchase, and walks away once the property settles. Heyward is on call 24/7 and watches your whole portfolio, strategy, research, acquisition, and management.

Question 3

Is there an AI alternative to a buyer's agent?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Heyward is an AI buyer's advocate. It runs the workload an advocate charges $8K–$25K per purchase for (suburb research, hazard and title due diligence, comparable-based pricing, negotiation strategy) autonomously, on every deal. Where humans still win: off-market access and standing in the auction room. We're upfront about that split. What an AI buyer's advocate is, explained.

Question 4

What does a buyer's agent cost in Australia?

Accepted Answer

Typically $8,000–$25,000 as a fixed fee, or 1.5–3% of the purchase price plus GST. Per property, every property. Sydney averages around $14,500, and most agencies add a $1,000–$3,000 engagement fee upfront. The full fee breakdown, stage by stage.

Question 5

How does Heyward handle the 2026-27 Budget?

Accepted Answer

The engine knows the four regimes (pre-Budget grandfathered, transitional, post-July-2027 new-build, post-July-2027 established). Every freedom-year and per-property verdict is computed against the regime that applies to each asset.

Question 6

How does it remember things about me?

Accepted Answer

Memory is opt-in and explicit. Patterns surface as hypotheses until you confirm them, the agent never assumes. You can confirm, reject, or delete anything at any time.

Question 7

What about my data?

Accepted Answer

Encrypted at rest. Your portfolio is yours. Australian-hosted infrastructure.

Question 8

How accurate is the offer pricing?

Accepted Answer

6.1% mean error across 9 validated sales. We correct for the industry's 9.5% systematic over-call. We don't generate dollar amounts that aren't grounded in comparables, every number is traceable.
