No Agent Business

No Agent Business: direct sale of businesses and commercial properties in Australia

No Agent Business is an Australian platform that allows business and commercial property owners to sell or lease their assets without using agents or brokers. Founded in 1999, it presents itself as Australia's longest-standing online advertising platform for direct sale of businesses and commercial properties. Its proposition is based on eliminating intermediary commissions and offering sellers the same advertising tools used by real estate agents.

National coverage and listing portals

The company operates in all Australian states and territories: Victoria (VIC), New South Wales (NSW), Queensland (QLD), South Australia (SA), Northern Territory (NT), Tasmania (TAS), Western Australia (WA) and the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). Listings are published on real estate and business portals such as RealCommercial.com.au, CommercialRealEstate.com.au, Seekbusiness.com.au and BusinessForSale.com.au, among others. According to the company, this extends reach beyond that of a conventional agent or broker.

Services for sellers and buyers

No Agent Business offers packages to sell a business, sell a commercial property or lease a commercial property. All packages include listing the ad on major business and commercial property portals, an offer form for interested buyers and connection with buyers registered on RealEstate.com.au, Domain.com.au and No Agent Business's own database. The platform also allows buyers to contact directly with owners selling privately.

The company states that sellers retain full control of the process, from listing to closing the deal, and that direct communication with buyers can speed up negotiations. It offers marketing tools to create listings, communication features and guidance materials, as well as consultant support during the sales campaign.

Types of businesses and properties

The platform supports a wide variety of businesses, such as cafés, restaurants, hair salons, retail stores, service companies, manufacturing and online businesses, among others. In the commercial sphere, it allows selling or leasing commercial properties. The company also offers resources such as checklists for business and commercial property sellers, a free valuation guide, an information memorandum and a knowledge centre with glossary.

Activity data and results

According to published information, the platform had 1,232 active listings and had saved 55,175,065 Australian dollars in commissions in the last twelve months, with cumulative savings since 1999 of 686,897,741 dollars. The company claims to have exceeded 20,000 satisfied customers and shows examples of featured properties and recent sales in locations such as Bendigo, Perth and Fyshwick.

How it works and support

The process to list a business or property includes creating an account, choosing a package, providing details of the business or property (location, industry, asking price) and uploading photos and a detailed description. No Agent Business recommends consulting with an advisor to determine the right selling price, or using a valuation expert or industry benchmarks. Customer service is available seven days a week.
