Flat Fee Real Estate Agents in Preston
Most Preston real estate agents charge 2% to 3% of your sale price in commission. On a $1.5 million home, that comes to $30,000 to $45,000, and marketing is usually extra.
Unreserved charges one flat fee. A licensed agent manages your campaign, lists your home on realestate.com.au and Domain, follows up every buyer and negotiates your sale through to settlement. The fee stays the same whether your home sells for $900,000 or $2.5 million.
A fully managed sale costs $6,900, and $4,900 of that is only payable once your home sells. You open the door for inspections, and there’s no lock-in contract.

Preston is a busy northern suburb centred on High Street and Preston Market, with three stations on the Mernda line. Many buyers arrive here moving north from Northcote and Thornbury.
Pricing a Preston home. Buyers compare older Preston homes with the new townhouses nearby. A renovated bungalow or a home on a large block needs a price that reflects its land, not just its floor area.
What sells in Preston
Californian bungalows, Edwardian and post-war homes, and many newer townhouses on subdivided blocks.
Who’s buying
First-home buyers, young families, investors and small developers.
Our Preston selling tip
With so many new townhouses on the market, an older home on a full block stands out. If your block has subdivision potential, make sure buyers can see it.

Read the review on Trustpilot Rated Excellent on TrustpilotThe model that gets the result without taking 2–3%.
Commission pays for shopfronts, prospecting teams and salespeople. Unreserved puts licensed agents on the work that sets your price, and lets technology handle the rest.
You keep more of your sale
With Plus, you pay one fixed fee for the full sales campaign. No percentage-based commission cutting deeper as your sale price goes up.
Agent service where it matters most
Your pricing strategy, buyer follow-up, negotiation and sale management are handled by licensed agents. That is where the result is won or lost.
Less fluff. Same serious sale process.
You open the door for inspections. We manage the campaign, enquiries, buyer communication and negotiations, so you are not paying commission for tasks that do not justify 2–3%.
