About Owner.com.au

Can you tell me about Owner.com.au?
OWNER.COM.AU is owned by Pacific Webs Pty Ltd. Pacific Webs was established in 1996. Through an internet boom, an internet bust and a pervasive internet Pacific Webs has held the constant view that, to thrive, an internet business must offer very real value to site users. Since 1998 Owner.com.au has been the most active strictly private sale real estate web site in Australia. We have the largest database of For Sale By Owner (FSBO) listings. We have listed over 40,000 FSBO properties valued at more than $13,000,000,000 ($13 billion). Currently listings with a combined sale price of over $8 million are added each day (About $60 million per week). Owner.com.au private sale listings therefore offer the opportunity for sellers and buyers of property to share in immense savings on real estate transaction costs.
We aim to offer buyers the largest choice of private sale listings and to offer sellers the best value in site listing services and customised promotional materials. In short to offer buyers more sellers, sellers more buyers and both lower costs.
