Encompassing television commercials, digital banners and radio spots, the nationwide campaign challenges Australians to consider how they can get the best return when selling their home and whether real estate agents deserve to walk away with tens of thousands of dollars by taking a slice of the sale price, opposed to earning a fixed fee.
Independent research conducted by Purplebricks to inform the campaign shows that 70 % of Australians would prefer a fair-fixed fee as opposed to the ‘old-fashioned’ commission.
Neil Tavender, Purplebricks Australia CEO said: “Since launching we have saved Australians over $50 million in commission fees. This campaign is about educating Australians about the real estate industry’s archaic business model that only benefits agents. We won’t rest until every Australians understands they can sell their home with a fixed fee, get a great result and not fund ‘commission collectors’ lifestyles.”
