Advertise on realestate.com.au
If you’re looking to advertise your property on realestate.com.au privately, you will not be able to do so directly. Realestate.com.au only allows licensed real estate agencies to publish listings to their site. Whilst this site does not have such a relationship itself, by listing your property on For Sale By Owner (www.forsalebyowner.com.au), you will be able to advertise on realestate.com.au as they are a licensed account holder and will be able to assist in advertising.
realestate.com.au is Australia’s most popular real estate portal and a must for anyone looking to advertise their property. Whether you are advertising a rental property or are selling, this is the site which is likely to generate the greatest number of enquiries.
When advertising through For Sale By Owner, you will be able to create and manage your listing on one section of the member’s site. Any information you add here will be published on a range of websites, and any changes you make at any time will flow through automatically. Usually, any changes you make should be visible on all sites within half an hour or so. Different websites may update a little faster or slower, depending on the number of requests they are processing.
Enquiries sent through on realestate.com.au will be forwarded to you with both an email as well as an SMS alert. Buyers or prospective tenants will be able to easily and quickly get in touch with you and their details will also be passed onto you in real-time. This is the case for all enquiries, 24/7.
When listing privately on realestate.com.au, it’s important to know that they do have a set of quality control issues which form part of their Acceptable Use Policy. These are in place to ensure uniformity amongst listings as well as providing end-users with the best possible user experience when accessing their website. Examples of this are the fact that contact details cannot be placed within the body of the property description (there are separate and specific fields for this), users must adhere to pricing guidelines which can vary from state to state etc.
