Tap into and benefit from the value and experience of husband and wife led Licensed Independent Buyers Agent team Mark and Michelle Errichiello. Co-founders of Master Advocates Established 2014, together they possess over 45 years combined Real Estate experience in Melbourne, helping buyers just like you to buy property to live in or manage their investment portfolio.
As well as helping a range of clients, from first-time buyers, dream-home owners and upsizers to downsizers, we also work closely with renovators, builders and property developers, from knock-down re-build, dual occupancy to multi-unit subdivision sites. We source, project manage due diligence and preliminary feasibility and collaborate with our panel of trusted related industry professionals from architects, town planners, building and pest inspectors, trades people and builders, manage them throughout the job and make sure the investment property is properly cared for from initial purchase through to re-sale or leasing and property management ready.
Although we assist buyers throughout Metropolitan Melbourne, we specialise particularly in all suburbs north of the Yarra River. Our skills, networks, roots and experience in the North, North West and North East mean we are particularly strong in those areas with a network spanning Australia and direct service across the East Coast.
We are based in Essendon North and have worked here for over 25 years. Consequently, we know many of the agents personally and enjoy good relationships with them. This has proved to be hugely beneficial, as we often get notified of properties before they hit the market or invited to view homes before anyone else. We even get the red-carpet treatment when it comes to negotiating, which can end up saving our clients significant amounts of money.

Introducing Hybrid Remote Co-Pilot Support: Strategic Property Guidance, On Demand
In today’s property market, timing, information, and execution drive outcomes. Whether you purchase at auction or negotiate a private sale, you face high-pressure decisions where the margin for error is small and the financial stakes are significant.
To address this, Master Advocates is introducing a new service designed for modern buyers: Hybrid Remote Co-Pilot Support.
This flexible, on-demand solution gives you access to professional, licensed, and independent advocacy exactly when it matters most. As a result, you gain expert support without committing to a full end-to-end engagement.
A Smarter Way to Navigate the Market
Traditionally, buyers either engage a full-service advocate or navigate the process alone. However, Hybrid Remote Support bridges that gap.
Instead, you can self-source and shortlist properties while accessing expert guidance at critical stages. This approach allows you to stay in control while benefiting from professional insight, structured strategy, and negotiation expertise.
In other words, it’s like having a Situation Control Room Commander guiding your decisions in real time
Hybrid Remote Co-Pilot Support provides clarity and confidence throughout the entire buying journey.
Pre-Purchase Strategy and Budget Alignment
Every successful purchase starts with a clear plan. Therefore, we provide personalised consultations to define your criteria, establish a realistic budget, and align your strategy with current market conditions.
Due Diligence and Market Validation
Before committing, you need reliable data and insights. For this reason, we support you with detailed comparable market analysis, research, and validation.
Additionally, our advice is backed by real-time experience and deep local knowledge across Melbourne, Victoria, and key lifestyle markets such as Byron Bay and the Northern Rivers.
Tailored Negotiation and Bidding Strategy
Each property requires a unique approach. Therefore, we develop a clear and disciplined strategy tailored to your situation.
As a result, you will understand:
- When to act
- When to hold
- When to walk away
Live Auction and Negotiation Execution
This is where Hybrid Remote Support delivers the greatest value.
Through phone, video conferencing, or digital bidding platforms, we guide or manage the process in real time. Consequently, you can make confident decisions under pressure.
This includes:
- Pre-auction positioning and communication with agents
- Live bidding strategy and execution
- Private sale negotiation management
- Post-auction negotiation where required
- Guidance through Contract of Sale execution
Furthermore, for clients who prefer a more hands-on approach, we can attend auctions in person through our licensed buyers advocate network.

The decoy bidder in the check coat: Mark Errichiello
The second of our new faces to have a big impact on the day was buyer’s advocate Mark Errichiello, who appeared to have a client keen on securing at least one of the Island Cove Villa properties.
Known as bidder No. 24, he tick-tacked with other bidders on houses 4 and 3 before eventually dropping out of the race.
It was the auction of House 5 when he finally came out on top after fighting off four other bidders, winning Kristian and Mimi’s property for $2.93 million.
At the conclusion of all the auctions, it was revealed his client was actually Portelli.
So, why did a billionaire need someone to buy his home on his behalf?
“Who knows how it would have worked out if he [Portelli] was just there on his own, buying them all?” Errichiello asked. “Others may have competed with him a little bit more vigorously at times.”
“Portelli waited until after all five auctions had taken place to make his big reveal. The billionaire stunned the crowd when he revealed, post-auction, that he had bought every home on the show, directly or through his buyer’s agent. He also confirmed that he won’t be returning to bid again next season.”…
