Why Don't You offer a Free listing ?
Our intention is to provide a valuable website for people looking to buy . We do this by ensuring we have quality listings from Sellers. We feel $19 is a fair price to pay for anyone interested in selling their house or investment property. It also helps maintain the integrity of our site for our buyers.
Payment : How Can I pay for listing ?
We accept payment by either BSB , Credit Card or Paypal. If you want to pay using your credit card you will need to select payment by paypal.

Why Sell privately
1. Save $$$ on the Sale of your House or Apartment
Calculate what you think your house is worth, then ask yourself : Is it worth paying this much to have someone else show my property, act as a go-between to negotiate the sale and coordinate the home's closing schedules with the lender and Solicitor? You are responsible for hiring a solicitor when buying from a Real estate agent anyways so why are you giving away 20k -100K to your agent off the price of your house depending on the value of your house?

2. You can "sell your home" better than anyone else:
You know your house best. The schools, the neighborhood, what is special about the area and the home, as well as other details about the house. A well-maintained, fairly priced home can virtually sell itself; your role is to simply provide additional information.
3. Sell for a price on your terms; You're in control:
Nobody is going to tell you what to sell for. You can advertise where and how you want to Don't sit by in frustration because "they're not doing enough", schedule showings when it's convenient for you, talk directly with prospective home buyers at your leisure, even take your home off the market for awhile if you can't find the right house for you. Relaestate agents often give you specific terms and packages for there pricing , 3 week, 1month, 2 month, 3 month... etc.. With Property Sales Direct you can choose your timing and are not obligated for any 3 , 6 or 12 month contracts.
4. More Conveinant
When selling a home by owner, you don't have to leave the house because a Real Estate Agent wants to show it, or clean it every morning before leaving "just in case". You know when potential home buyers are coming, and can therefore prepare accordingly. And when a home buyer makes an offer, there's not all that frustrating back-and-forth telephone tag between real estate agents to reach an agreement. It can be done in minutes, and end with a friendly handshake and smile between the buyer and seller.
5. More Control
Because you meet the prospective home buyers, you have a much better idea how interested people are, what they like about the house, how serious they are about buying and what their timeframe and situation is. The direct feedback is easier to live with than wondering how things are going, or worse, why no one has made an offer yet.
