Do I need a contract of sale before listing?

You don't need a contract arranged in order to complete the listing process.

Whether you need to have a pre-prepared contract of sale before marketing your property, depends on your state.

NSW and ACT sellers are required by law to have a contract of sale ready, prior to advertising.

SA sellers will have to have the section 32 form filled out prior to listing also.

It's a great idea for sellers in any state to be as prepared as possible for a potential sale.

You can purchase contract preparation within your account in just a few clicks during the listing process, and choose to 'go live' with your listing later (once your contract is ready, if required).

Please feel free to speak to our staff if you're unsure on what process is required for your state.
