How it works

From enquiry to registered transfer

You handle the buyer; we handle everything else. Here's exactly what a private sale looks like when you work with PrivateHomeSale.

  1. 1

    You send us an enquiry

    Tell us a little about the property and where you are in the process — whether you've found a buyer or are just exploring. We respond within one business day.

  2. 2

    Free consult & next-steps plan

    On a quick call or WhatsApp chat we explain the legal requirements, what documents you'll need, and what timing looks like for your sale.

  3. 3

    Documents prepared

    We draft the Offer to Purchase (OTP) with the correct suspensive conditions, manage FICA compliance, and coordinate compliance certificates (electrical, gas, beetle, plumbing, electric fence).

  4. 4

    Buyer & seller agreement signed

    We walk both parties through the OTP so everyone signs with a clear understanding — including the deposit, occupation date, and fixtures.

  5. 5

    Conveyancer takes over the transfer

    We brief a conveyancing attorney (yours or one we recommend) who handles the rates clearance, bond cancellation, transfer duty, and Deeds Office registration.

  6. 6

    Registration & handover

    Once the property registers in the buyer's name, funds are released to you. You hand over the keys. Done — and you've kept the commission.
