Danielle Forde Property Advisory

About Danielle

My Purpose & Philosophy

My goal is to make your home buying or selling journey simple, transparent, and ultimately full of joy!

I take pride in offering the personal attention, time, and guidance that clients truly value, especially those feeling overwhelmed, short on time, or unsure where to begin. My approach is calm, consultative, and grounded in genuine care for each client’s goals. For me, property is never just about transactions, it’s about people, their families, and the spaces where life unfolds. Much of my business comes through referrals from past clients, friends, and my local community, a reflection of the trust and lasting relationships I’ve built along the way.

Danielle was an excellent buyers agent for me. I asked her to find a unicorn I could not find myself. She found a property that met rare criteria, and then some, that was within price range. Danielle was helpful with the negotiation process and progress to to exchange and beyond. It's tough to buy well in Sydney while you're busy earning the income required. Danielle is a pleasant, but very effective ally in this process. I would recommend her.

Working with Danielle as our buyers agent was an absolute pleasure. Her market knowledge, negotiation skills, and attention to details were evident from our first meeting. Danielle provided clear guidance throughout the entire process, responded promptly to all of our questions, and went above and beyond to ensure every element of the purchase was handled smoothly. We are incredibly grateful for Danielle’s support and would happily recommend her to anyone.

“It was certainly serendipity when our daughter introduced Danielle to us as we prepared to relocate from the Hills District to the Northern Beaches. Danielle was so knowledgeable in the process of buying and selling, reassuring us all the way and incredibly helpful when we found the home we really loved. Danielle took over all the negotiations, making the whole process so much smoother for us. She is cool under pressure, which is so important in potentially stressful situations. What was very important to us was that Danielle was always contactable and nothing was too much trouble. I have no hesitation in recommending Danielle to anyone buying a home and would be happy to be contacted if more information is required.” – L.N.

When buying a property, there are moments when the pros and cons are finely balanced and as the buyer, you are the only one who can make the decision. In 2024 and 2025, Danielle created space for me so I could decide on my new home with limited stress. Her amazing attention to detail and follow up of issues gave me confidence that all the bases were covered and we had all the available information. She also took time to get to know me. She understood when to encourage, when to provide data or reminders of my priorities and when to allow me space. It was delightful working with her and I highly recommend her services.

Danielle has been our guide and guardian angel since we arrived in Avalon 6 years ago. She welcomed us in her parent leadership role at Montessori where our kids first went to school and her support continued as we settled into the community. Whenever we needed a referral for the house we were designing and building, she was our go-to and remains the first number on our dial. Her connections are limitless and her responsiveness is bar none. But it’s her warmth and genuine care for helping others that sets her apart from her peers (she’s looked after our human and fur babies like family as ours live overseas) which reflects the kind of friendship you can expect that goes well beyond her professional expertise and experience. We can’t thank or recommend Danielle enough and hope she changes your life as she has ours.

It is without hesitation that I recommend Danielle Forde as a buyer's agent. Not only is she exceptionally skilled, but she also has a genuinely wonderful personality that made the entire process smooth. One of her greatest strengths is the strong relationship she has built within the real estate industry. These connections directly benefited me (we could access properties before they were listed, and we received honest insights from real estate agents she had known for years). Buying a property was a source of stress for me, and I was struggling to find the time and energy to go through this process, but Danielle made it really easy for me and demonstrated a lot of patience, kindness, and wisdom.

I purchased my first property with Danielle in 2024. The conversation started as more of an exploration on whether I should be looking into property in my early 20s, and if so, how to approach such a daunting experience! However within a couple of weeks, Danielle was able to open up my horizons in the property market by helping me look interstate across Australia, into more affordable markets. Danielle and I had regular catch ups where she would suggest properties, and help me understand what to look out for (good and bad!). She was patient, kind, and calm throughout the search and purchase process which was a saving grace. I cannot wait to buy another property with Danielle down the line.

Danielle was a consummate professional every step of the way. With so much knowledge to share. In what could have been a really tricky time Danielle was there to help. I would recommend her strongly.

My goal is to make your home buying or selling journey simple and stress-free, so you can relax and enjoy the process.

The time, care, and personal attention I give my clients is especially valued by those who feel overwhelmed, short on time, or unsure where to start. Much of my business comes from referrals because of this trusted, people-first approach.

frequently asked questions

What does a Buyers Agent do?

 I work exclusively for the buyer — not the seller. I search, shortlist, assess, negotiate and secure property on your behalf, helping you avoid costly mistakes and access properties you may never see on your own.

Buying property is time-consuming, emotional and competitive. I handle the research, agent conversations, inspections, due diligence and negotiation — giving you more clarity, more confidence, and a stronger position when the right home appears.

No. I do not accept overlapping briefs. Your search remains my priority, and I never represent competing buyers in the same category or area.

Timeframes depend on your brief and market conditions, but most buyers secure a property within 6–12 weeks. Some move faster; others take longer if their wishlist is highly specific.

The Northern Beaches and North Shore are my core areas, but I also support clients buying beyond Sydney including Coastal NSW, Canberra, and Melbourne. Many of my clients come back for help with relocation or investment purchases, valuing the continuity of working with someone they already know and trust.

Yes — I provide appraisal guidance, value benchmarking and strategic negotiation (or structured bidding at auction) to ensure you pay the right price, not an emotional one.

What does a Sellers Advocate actually do?

 I help shortlist and select the right agent, guide preparation and presentation, review strategy and pricing, monitor campaign performance, and support you through negotiation — ensuring the selling process is smooth and aligned.

No — I help you choose, manage and hold accountable the right sales agent. You get expertise without stress.

Extremely. I streamline the entire journey, ensuring the timing, decisions and strategy on both sides work together.
