200 Square’s Grant Wakelin says the company has combined the best of technology and automated the business processes, including listing, marketing, negotiation and preparation of contracts, removing the need for administrators and reducing overheads.

Because home owners still want advice and support, the company has ‘extensive help and guidance online’ and customers can contact experienced real estate professionals directly via online Q&A, email, or telephone, if required.

The result of a team bringing together real estate, technology management, design, engineering and legal skills,  the fully licensed real estate agency charges nothing to list a property for sale, instead charging a flat success fee of $1,299 including gst. A range of ‘premium’ marketing options are also available.
