The announcement, being made today at One Agency’s international “Alive in 25” conference in Wellington, marks an important step in Aussie’s evolution from a mortgage broker to a leading one-stop destination for Australians to find, buy and own property.
The partnership provides One Agency clients with seamless support from pre-approval through to settlement, including access to Aussie’s ‘buy now, sell later’ solution, designed to help customers with a smooth transition into their next home.
Agents will also benefit from VPA-free listings on Aussie’s Property Search, covering off-market, pre-market and on-market properties including auctions, while tapping into Aussie’s 5+ million customers.
“We are excited to launch this powerful partnership with One Agency, a dynamic and forward-thinking real estate group that’s both customer-focused and results-driven,” said Rhett Dallwitz, Aussie’s General Manager of Agent Services.
“This partnership will enable One Agency buyers and vendors to transact more efficiently through our seamless Find. Buy. Own. proposition.”
“Our zero-cost listings offered on Aussie’s Property Search will help One Agency agents connect with more potential buyers by marketing their listings to millions of Australians, bringing much-needed competition to a market facing escalating online advertising costs,” Dallwitz said.
The partnership launch sets the stage for Aussie’s upcoming Seller Assist service, which will support agents in securing qualified, ready-to-move vendor leads and appraisal opportunities through Aussie’s network of more than 1,300 brokers and 220 stores nationwide.
“Our partnership with Aussie will be game-changing for our agents, backed by one of Australia’s most trusted household name brands,” said Mindy Powell-Hodges, Head of Global Membership at One Agency.
“This collaboration gives our network access to an integrated property ecosystem that includes a VPA-free listing platform which connects our agents to high-intent buyers and vendors across the country. It’s exactly the kind of innovative partnership our agents need to stay competitive and deliver exceptional value to their clients.”
The One Agency partnership follows Aussie’s recent launch of a major new brand platform and national campaign for Find. Buy. Own. which is now running across television, Broadcast Video on Demand (BVOD), outdoor, radio and digital.
