Buying, selling, or renting
in Brisbane — before you land.

I help people relocating from Papua New Guinea secure the right home in Brisbane, from someone who actually understands the move.

The route

How it works, start to keys

01

Tell me what you're after

A short intake form covers your budget, timeline, household, and what matters to you in a property.

02

We talk it through

A free call or video consult to map your options and set expectations on the Brisbane market.

03

I do the legwork

Shortlisting, inspecting, and reporting back, so you're deciding between real options, not listing photos.

04

You choose, I secure it

Application support for rentals, or full representation and negotiation if you're buying.

Outside my scope

What I don't do, and our referral partners

Being upfront about this matters, especially for anyone relocating internationally. These are always referred to independent, appropriately qualified professionals.

Visas and immigration

Referred to a Registered Migration Agent. I don't provide immigration or visa advice, under any circumstances.

Conveyancing and contracts

Referred to a trusted conveyancer or solicitor for review and legal advice.

Home loans

Referred to a mortgage broker. Any referral fee is disclosed to you in writing upfront.

FIRB applications

General information only — the application itself is referred to a specialist.

Our Relocation Partner

8C Relocation

Property is only one part of moving countries. For everything else — settlement basics, school placement, cultural integration, employment support, healthcare and Medicare, financial and banking guidance, and legal and admin guidance — I refer clients to 8C Relocation. They work the same corridor I do, South East Queensland and Papua New Guinea, so the handoff between us is seamless rather than another cold start.

About

Ayrton Dela Cruz Lim

Ray White Collective
Toowong · New Farm · Clayfield
KOP · Bulimba · Woody Point
Collective Luxury

I was born and raised in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea, before building my career in Brisbane real estate. Five years in sales and luxury sales have given me genuine experience in high-level negotiation and the emotional intelligence this kind of move demands. Through the Ray White Collective — Toowong, New Farm, Clayfield, KOP, Bulimba, Woody Point, and Collective Luxury — I have connections across the whole industry, so whatever your property needs, I can put the right people and the right properties in front of you.

Being from PNG myself, I've helped numerous friends and family relocate to Australia — finding them a property, finalising their documentation, and handling negotiations directly on their behalf. I understand how daunting and stressful this process can feel, especially from the other side of the world. Your property search doesn't need to add to that stress. I'm here to guide you through it, simplify the parts that usually overwhelm people, and take the load off so you don't have to carry it alone.

If you're making the same move I've already helped my own family and friends make, I'd like the chance to do the same for you. Reach out for a no-obligation conversation, and let's work out exactly what your first step in Brisbane looks like.
