ABOUT HARNESS PROPERTY
Clarity Before You Buy
We built Harness Property because buying property in Sydney shouldn’t require an insider to make sense of it. Here’s who we are, and how we approach every guide we publish.
Why We Started Harness Property
Every year, thousands of Sydney buyers walk into the biggest financial decision of their life without a clear picture of how the process actually works — how buyers agents operate, what a fair price looks like in a specific suburb, or how a loan structure will affect them for years to come.
Harness Property exists to close that gap. We break down the buying process, the numbers, and the suburb-level detail that actually matters, in plain English, so you can make your next move with confidence — whether that’s working with a professional or navigating the process yourself.
We’re not a buyers agency. We’re an independent editorial resource, written by people who understand both sides of a property purchase: the search and negotiation, and the finance that makes it possible.

The Team Behind Harness Property
Jackson Gordon
Lead Buyers Agent Analyst
Jackson writes on buying strategy, negotiation, auctions, and suburb research, drawing on hands-on experience in the Sydney property market. His guides focus on the practical, step-by-step decisions buyers face — from due diligence checklists to choosing the right professional support — without the jargon.
Priya Deshpande
Finance Contributor
Priya covers the money side of buying property: borrowing power, loan structuring, SMSF property investment, and the finance decisions that shape what buyers can actually afford. Her guides are built to make genuinely complex finance topics understandable without oversimplifying them.
Our Approach
How We Approach Every Guide
Sydney-Specific, Not Generic
Every guide is grounded in real Sydney suburb data, current scheme detail, and NSW-specific processes — not broad, one-size-fits-all national advice.
Plain English, No Jargon
We explain every term the first time it appears. If a concept needs a worked example to make sense, we include one.
Independent, With Disclosed Recommendations
Where we mention a buyers agent, broker, or other professional service, it’s because we think the recommendation genuinely helps — and we disclose these relationships clearly. See our Partner Disclosure page.
A Note on Our Content
Harness Property provides general information only — it isn’t personal financial, legal, or taxation advice. Property markets, lending policies, and government schemes change over time, so always confirm current details and seek advice tailored to your circumstances from a licensed buyers agent, mortgage broker, financial adviser, solicitor, or accountant before making a decision. See our full Terms of Use for more detail.
