Owner Property Group is spearheading the growing movement in Australia toward professional property sales for more reasonable rates of commission than many traditional real estate agencies.

Since starting this business in October of 2002, principals Merrick & Maria Keane have seen the emergence of many other businesses offering similar services and reduced commission rates. This is a tremendous benefit to the real estate buying and selling public and proof that this is a great business concept and the way of the future.

Communications technology particularly the internet has made property marketing so much more affordable and accessible to both agents and the public. With so much information available, today agents are dealing with a better informed public who expect quality, innovation and value for money from service providers.

Owner Property Group stands apart as Australias most successful and innovative supplier of professional property sales without the high fees. In 2006, Owner Property Group expects to pass the $100 million mark for total value of property sold with commissions saved by our clients topping a staggering $2 million!

Its no wonder this whole business concept is taking off. Despite some major opposition from certain agencies, Owner Property Group Merrick Keane thinks its only a matter of time before some of the big boys jump on board.

Much the same way that Qantas created Jetstar as their budget brand to tackle the rising market share being won by Virgin Blue, I think that eventually well see one of the major real estate groups launch a lower fee service to combat the growth of independent low-fee operators who are emerging Australia-wide. It is already happening in our area, where our sales success has seen a trend toward many other agents offering fee reductions from their normal rates plus other dedicated low-fee operators entering the industry.

Owner Property Group continues to expand its territories and range of services. We are always interested in feedback from the public and the industry, so we invite you to call or email us anytime and lets talk real estate we love it!
