List on realestate.com.au
Whilst it’s possible to advertise your house or land on a variety of websites, it is essential that you advertise on realestate.com.au as this is the most popular and biggest real estate portal in Australia. The number of users and the number of enquiries made on this website are far in access of any other real estate website in Australia.
Until recent years it was only possible to get a property listed on realestate.com.au if this was being marketed through a traditional agent, where the agent would conduct the entire campaign for you, and could thereby also get you listed on realestate.com.au However, most of the time this would involve you having to pay considerable real estate commissions on selling your home.
Similarly, if you wanted to advertise a rental property on realestate.com.au, this would also have had to go through a traditional agency, and the management of the property after a tenant had been found would also need to go through them.
Whilst it is still the case that you need to be a licensed agency in order to be a subscribing account holder, it is now possible to get your property listed on realestate.com.au through www.forsalebyowner.com.au
For Sale By Owner is a licensed agency and can facilitate the advertising of your house or land (either for sale or for rent). There are no commissions payable when you sell, and you are not tied to any agency after having found a tenant either. FSBO simply provides a selection of services rather than a full range, and in return, the costs for you the consumer are greatly reduced.
Please note that are guidelines to which you need to adhere when you advertise privately on realestate.com.au, and these guidelines apply to all agents equally. This includes not placing links in your property description to other websites etc.
