The village of Templestowe was surveyed in 1852, and four years later the Templestowe Road Board was proclaimed. In 1889 the Shire of Bulleen, which replaced the Templestowe Road Board in 1875, was divided and the Shire of Templestowe formed. In 1926 the shires of Templestowe and Doncaster were united to form the Shire of Doncaster and Templestowe.
Suburbanisation after World War II resulted in residential housing supplanting Templestowe’s orchards. Brick kilns commenced operating in Templestowe by the 1940s. Later the Glen Iris Brickworks opened a quarry to produce the then fashionable lighter-coloured bricks. Project builders constructed display homes in the area. In the mid-20th century city planning and urban design principles also had an impact on Templestowe’s appearance with cul de sacs and streets designed to follow topographical forms.*

The East Kulin Nation have lived in the area now known as Melbourne, for more than 65,000 years harnessing the rich resources of the Yarra River and surrounding bush lands and ranges. Part of the East Kulin Nation are the Wurundjeri people who spoke the Woi-wurrung language who are the Traditional Owners of Manningham.
Wurundjeri people called the Yarra River “Birrarung” – ‘river of mists and shadows’. The Birrarung was central to the traditional Country of the Wurundjeri willam people. Throughout Manningham, Wurundjeri people lived near the Birrarung and its tributaries, caring for the many culturally significant places in the area.*

Templestowe has a strong mix of family homes, townhouses, and premium pockets that attract steady buyer demand. Many of the best properties trade quietly through agent networks rather than public advertising, which makes local knowledge and relationships critical.
I stay close to what is happening in the local market by tracking current buyer activity, recent off market transactions, and the way agents are pricing different property types. This helps you move with clarity instead of noise, especially when competition increases.

The cost of engaging a buyers advocate depends on the level of service, property type, and market conditions. At Eastern Property Advocates, we charge a fixed flat fee rather than a percentage. Our fees are paid in two parts: a small engagement fee to begin the search and the remaining balance once we’ve successfully secured your property. Whether you need full service or just auction bidding, we’re transparent from the first conversation. We don’t list our fees online because every brief is different, for example, finding an apartment involves a very different workload compared to sourcing an acreage property in Melbourne’s Eastern Suburbs.
Yes, we do. That’s one of the biggest advantages of working with a buyers advocate; however, it’s not the only reason to work with one.
At Eastern Property Advocates, we have direct relationships with selling agents across Melbourne, giving our clients access to off market and pre market listings that never appear online.
These exclusive opportunities often mean less competition, better value and the chance to secure the right property before the public even knows it’s available.
Yes. A buyers agent conducts inspections, assesses condition, checks for red flags, compares similar sales, and gives you clear guidance on whether a property is worth pursuing. This removes guesswork and helps you move faster than other buyers.
A buyers agent can represent you confidently at auction. They use set strategies, discipline, and experience to stop emotional bidding from blowing the budget. Auction representation increases your chances of staying in control even in heated environments.
The time it takes to buy a property with a buyers advocate depends on your brief, budget, and the current market. Most clients working with Eastern Property Advocates secure their ideal property within 2 to 6 weeks. We manage everything from research, inspections, shortlisting, negotiations, and due diligence to handing you the keys. This approach benefits anyone who wants expert guidance, including busy professionals, first-time buyers, retirees, or anyone unfamiliar with the property market, making the process faster, smoother and far less stressful.
Buyers advocates gain access to off market properties through strong local connections and insider knowledge of the Eastern Suburbs market. Many homes in areas like Doncaster, Doncaster East, Donvale, Balwyn, Blackburn and Ringwood sell quietly before they ever appear online.
At Eastern Property Advocates, we maintain relationships with top local selling agents, giving our clients priority access to pre-market and off-market listings. We also monitor upcoming campaigns, withdrawn listings and private sales to uncover hidden buying opportunities.
This means our clients often secure premium properties without facing public competition, emotional bidding or inflated auction prices, saving time, stress, and money.
The ideal time is before you begin searching. The early stage is where strategy, budget clarity, and criteria refinement save the most time. Engaging an agent once you are already overwhelmed or missing opportunities is still helpful, but starting early creates a far smoother experience.
A buyers agent protects the buyer from overpaying, emotional decision making, and missing hidden issues. Most people only buy a few properties in their lifetime, so they rely on intuition instead of data and strategy. A skilled professional brings market knowledge, negotiation skill, and a structured process that reduces stress and increases the chance of securing the right home at the right price.
I am the most trusted, awarded, experienced and local Templestowe buyers agent , Manningham buyers agent and I have the highest off market properties Templestowe compare to others.
