SELLERS

Yes of course. This is the Early Match concept. You can perfectly test the market now, 3 months to 2 years in advance and match with Buyers. You can decide when you want to sell in your own time, on your own terms.

Early Match property specialists team will be available to help after you register but you won’t be rushed into selling. There is no pressure to sell. We will just want to get in touch to help you understand how the platform works and how to get more matches as it is a new concept. The team just wants to make sure they have enough information to be able to match you with potential buyers. If you don’t want any help and want to do absolutely everything by yourself, this is perfectly fine too but it might take a bit more time for you to receive your matches as our team might miss some important details about your property.

You have the choice. You can decide to do the photos yourself and follow the guidelines of a property valuer or Early Match can help you with professional photography as well at an additional cost.

Yes. We have partnerships with the best in class Property Valuers and we can provide you with this service at an additional cost. If you have registered earlymatch.com.au, we can offer you a discount on property valuation. Send us an email to get your discount when you register: valuation@earlymatch.com.au.

Yes of course, being on the Early Match platform doesn’t prevent you from seeing an agent. We recommend that you start with Early Match in your process as we are taking care of the pre- and off market. You will have more opportunities available to you and it is totally private.

You are not locked-in into any contract until you get a match and decide to meet with a Buyer. When you get your first match, we will require you to sign an agreement that will lock in 0.6% fees on the property selling price. This mutual agreement will have to be signed between Early Match and yourself, the Owner. You will only have to sign this agreement once no matter the number of matches you get through our online platform.

As a property owner, you will only pay a “success fee” of 0.8% on the selling price of the property (vs 2.2% average from traditional real estate agents). You will only have to pay this reduced fee at the end of the process, at the conveyancing step when your property is sold. Early Match charges a % on transaction and no upfront fee, no marketing fee. Optional services can also be contracted.

The fees will have to be paid at the end of the process when buyers and sellers agree on the purchase of a property.
