As FOUNDIT’s first Partner and Buyers Agent located in Sydney, Sabeen Akbani brings critical insight into the local property market, helping propel the company’s rapid expansion across the country. Her appointment as Sydney’s first Local Expert highlights the continued build-out of FOUNDIT’s national network and reinforces the company’s initial achievements.
Drawing on nearly two decades of hands-on experience in the home buying process, loan services, and advocating for clients, Sabeen offers in-depth insight into the Sydney property scene and the level of support required in a dynamic environment. She joins FOUNDIT as both its second Client Representative and its first Partner located in Sydney, taking the reins from Melbourne-based Lynda McNeill.
Co-founder Angus Ferguson acknowledged Sabeen’s reputation as one of the most prominent professionals in the property industry, not just in Sydney but across the country. She has become a top client advocate in Sydney’s eastern corridor and inner-city neighborhoods. With over 17 years’ experience focused on client needs and a strong background in digital tools, her alliance with FOUNDIT was an easy choice.
Sabeen views FOUNDIT’s approach as a transformative shift in how clients are guided through their home search journey. She understands that purchasing real estate can be daunting, particularly in a market like Sydney’s, where swift decisions and clear information are critical.
The FOUNDIT platform provides home seekers with essential resources, valuable insights, and reliable guidance to help them make confident choices. For property advisors, it creates space to concentrate on their strengths—identifying overlooked prospects, delivering informed recommendations, advocating in deal-making, and assisting people in finding the right home, not just any available option. Launching officially in June, FOUNDIT attracted $2 million in initial capital from well-known backers linked to prominent proptech companies such as Campaigntrack, Openn, and Inspect Real Estate.
The tool joins savvy home seekers with trusted professionals, on-demand market updates
, and priority entry to properties, streamlining the experience for everyone involved. Co-founder Angus Ferguson explained the vision as creating a new standard of guidance for purchasers by bringing together top-tier representatives from across the nation and equipping them with adaptable resources. Preparations for a broader rollout later this year include actively building a growing circle of contributors.
