David Zerna is a buyer’s agent and the founder of Timar, a boutique buyers’ agency based in Hobart, Tasmania. David’s passion for property was sparked by his father in the early '90s. After years of retail management and co-owning a business with his wife, David took the leap and launched his property buyer’s agency in 2022. In this episode of Buyer’s Agent Institute, Ben sits down with David to discuss the perception of buyer’s agents in Tasmania in 2023, why he chose Timar as the name for his buyers’ agency business brand, or the approach David uses repeatedly to delight his clients. -- QUOTES -- - “Money shouldn't be a taboo subject anymore. We should be able to be open and honest with each other about it.” - “(Being a buyer’s agent) is the best job in the world. I'm not sure what I've been doing for the last 20 years.” - “I love every second of (working with owner-occupiers) because it's got a bit more of a family touch to it... There's so much more complexity to it, but maybe I just enjoy taking on the harder challenges.” - “The change that I'm enjoying so much is bringing things to the community that doesn't really exist.” -- CONNECT WITH DAVID -- 🌐 Website: https://timar.com.au/ 📸 Instagram: https://instagram.com/timarbuyersagency 🌌 Facebook: https://facebook.com/timarbuyersagency 💼 LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/david-zerna-9219a640 -- CONNECT WITH BEN -- 💼 LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/benhandler2012 📸 Instagram: https://instagram.com/benjaminhandler 🌌 Facebook: https://facebook.com/benjaminhandler1 -- FOLLOW BUYER'S AGENT INSTITUTE -- 🌐 Website: https://buyersagentinstitute.com.au/ 📸 Instagram: https://instagram.com/buyersagentinstitute 🌌 Facebook Page: https://facebook.com/buyersagentinstitute 🌟 Check our reviews: https://facebook.com/buyersagentinstitute/reviews 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Join our FREE property group: http://rebrand.ly/schoolofproperty 🎙️ Quit the 9 to 5 podcast: http://bit.ly/2O6s3ya #buyersagent #buyersagentinstitute #whatisabuyersagent #becomeabuyersagent #buyersagentsaustralia #buyersadvocate #realestateagent #propertyinvestment #business #entrepreneurship #realestate #property #australia
