Selling a home is never a one-size-fits-all process. It might be the house you raised your kids in, a loved one’s long-time home, or a stepping stone to your next big adventure. Whatever the reason, it’s a significant moment, and it’s easy to feel like you’re navigating uncharted waters.
That’s where Locate Negotiate comes in. Led by Sutherland Shire local and property expert John Gibson, they bring clarity and confidence to what can often feel like an overwhelming process. With over 35 years of experience across every facet of property, John has built a reputation as, dare we say it, the most accomplished property professional in the Shire.
At the heart of Locate Negotiate offerings is their Seller’s Advocacy Service — designed to take the complexity out of selling while helping you achieve the best possible outcome. And if you’re planning to buy after you sell, John is also a highly experienced Buyer’s Agent, ensuring you’re supported on both sides of your property journey.

What is a Seller’s Advocate?
A Seller’s Advocate, also known as a Vendor’s Advocate, is an independent agent who guides homeowners through the entire selling process. At Locate Negotiate, they act in your best interest, managing every step — from selecting the right sales agent to overseeing the sales campaign, reviewing offers, and providing strategic advice — so you can sell with confidence and less stress.
When we caught up with John, his passion for getting it right was clear:
“We evaluate properties every day and have been doing so for decades. Our expertise allows us to provide honest, insightful and strategic advice to guide your decisions.”
For John, it’s all about precision and dedication. Or as he puts it:
“It’s about going the extra mile, squeezing the lemon to ensure you get the best result, no compromises.”
This hands-on, no-stone-unturned approach is why so many local property owners trust Locate Negotiate to deliver outstanding outcomes.
