Why You Need to Be on Realestate.com.au

If you’re trying to sell your property privately, the biggest hurdle is exposure. You need buyers to see your listing, and no other platform compares to realestate.com.au in terms of traffic and reach. It’s the first stop for most serious property hunters in Australia. If your home isn’t listed there, you’re missing out on the best opportunities to connect with potential buyers. Unfortunately, realestate.com.au doesn’t allow direct listings from private individuals — only licensed agents can list there. But with Nema, you get access to this premium portal while keeping full control of your sale.

It’s all your sale — we’re just here to give you access to the tools that make it possible.

5 Steps to List Your Property Privately on Realestate.com.au with Nema

1. Choose the Right Package

The first step is to choose the listing package that’s right for you. Nema offers a range of options depending on how much visibility you want and how long you plan to advertise. Whether you’re after a basic listing or want your property to stand out with premium placement, we’ve got a plan that fits. You can compare packages on our website and select the one that best matches your budget and selling strategy.

2. Submit Your Property Details

Once you’ve selected your package, it’s time to create your listing. We’ll guide you through an easy process where you fill in the details of your property — including the address, type of dwelling, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, features, and nearby amenities. This is your chance to highlight what makes your home special. You’ll also choose a headline and write the description that will appear on your ad.

3. Upload Photos and Floorplans

Good photography is crucial for attracting attention on realestate.com.au. You can upload your own high-quality photos or hire a professional through our platform. If you have a floorplan or virtual tour, you can include those too. The more visual content you provide, the better your chances of catching a buyer’s eye. Nema supports all major media formats, and you can update your images anytime during your campaign.

4. Approve and Launch Your Listing

Once you’ve completed your ad and uploaded your media, you’ll submit it for approval. Our team will quickly review it to ensure it meets the platform’s requirements. After that, we’ll publish it live on realestate.com.au. Typically, listings go live within one business day. You’ll receive a confirmation email as soon as your ad is active and visible to buyers across the country.

5. Manage Enquiries and Update Your Listing

With your property now on Australia’s largest real estate site, you’ll start receiving enquiries. All messages from potential buyers will be forwarded directly to you, so you can respond in your own time and arrange inspections at your convenience. Need to change your price or update your photos? No problem. You can make changes at any time during your listing period through your Nema dashboard.
