The average sale commission is 2%, but what does that actually get you? 🤔

Styling? Nope.
Photography? Don't think so.
What about videography? Doubt it.
How about advertising fees? Oh, and trust us on this: definitely not.

A traditional agent will take 2% of your home sale. We don't.

Pay a $5,500 fee, no matter what your home sells for. Finally, a new way to sell your home is here to save you thousands.

2% doesn’t sound like much… until you realise it’s $30,000 on a $1.5m home.

That’s the power of framing. Percentages feel small. Real dollars feel real. And most sellers never stop to make that conversion.

Before you list your home, ask yourself: what am I actually paying?

A growing space between selling a home yourself and handing everything over.

A space where you can stay involved,
understand what’s happening,
and still have support when you need it.

It’s a different way of thinking about selling
and one that’s starting to resonate.

When space and natural light are high on your list 💜

For a long time, selling a home has come with costs people didn’t really question.

Commissions.
Marketing.
Fees on top of fees.

Now, more homeowners are pausing and asking
“Do I actually need all of this?”

Let's hear it for the mums! You truly make the world go round. 🙌

For our mothers and mother-like figures, we wish you a Happy Mother's Day. We hope today is filled with joy, warmth, and an abundance of love. 💜

Interest rates went up.
But what’s really changing is how people are thinking about selling.

It’s no longer just “should we sell?”
It’s “what is it actually costing us to sell?”

With more than 1.6 million Australians now at risk of mortgage stress, those questions are starting to matter more than ever.
