Given this was the first time I was invoked in selling a house I owned OpenAgent gave me access to all the resources I required to approach this daunting task. Lists of potential sales representatives, access to real estate reports and other information that was required to make informed decisions about the sale of a significant asset that I owned

Spammers – Spam callers. Numerous calls received over days. Block one number, they call you from another one. Reporting to ACCC
Excellent Advise – Angelo from OpenAgent gave very valuable advise and guide through the process. Really appreciate their service and highly recommended to select their service when you want sell your property.
Very Misleading! – I am a real estate agent and they have me on here stating I have made no sales! This is false advertising as I have made many sales. I am considering taking legal action for false advertising and the damage this is causing my professional reputation. This company will only promote you if you pay them. You can research my sales figures yourself… Read more
online for free. My name is Michael Stoeski from Rave Real Estate. Look at Domain as they also have stats on agents (and it is free) and their stats seem to be more on the mark! I would not pay one cent to businesses like this! FALSE ADVERTISING!!

Inaccurate advertising incredibly wrong and incorrect – This website has displayed incorrect information about top agents working in certain suburbs. It clearly states top agents in a suburb is three other agents who have not sold as many properties in the area as I have yet the website continues to not recommend me by email despite the fact I can prove I am the top agent in Batesford having sold the… Read more
most properties there in a certain period of time. To me this displays inconsistent inaccurate information. I would not want to take advice from a company who displays incorrect information about a particular a specific suburb. They say it’s within a 7 mile radius however there are different suburbs with in 7 mile radius that have a huge differentiation in properties from lower price points and Ex housing commission homes to only a few miles down the road where you have completely the opposite types of properties displaying countryside Manor homes on minimum of 1 acre selling in the millions. Naturally these two types of properties come with different two types of agents. I have worked incredibly hard to maintain my reputation in that market yet this company refuse to recommend me by email because the development team feel it’s too hard to change the backend or probably cost too much money to change the way the system works. If you’re going to work in an industry like this you need to be transparent. I would not use this website recommend it to anyone but to encourage people to do their own research and contact the agents directly.
Extremely Useful Service for Home Owners Looking to Sell - RECOMMEND! – OpenAgent gets my two thumbs up. I was finding it really difficult figuring out which real estate agent was best placed to sell my property, and I had no way of comparing agents. On the one hand I didn't have time to meet and chat to 20 of them, and on the other hand I didn't want to just go with the first agent I met. Like most people, I was… Read more
worried that I'd end up going with the wrong agent, which could be really costly when you're talking about the most valuable asset I own.
Then I came across OpenAgent and it's exactly what I needed to help me choose the right real estate agent for my property. And it's completely free. This really is a game changer for people looking to sell their homes and I would highly recommend you at least give the service a go, as it only takes a few minutes to submit your details. The team were professional, helpful and most importantly completely independent. The way I look at it, there is nothing to lose, and potentially a lot to gain!
Excellent service, couldn't have been more pleased – This is the second property I've sold. I renovated my first property (unit) with my wife and we really put our heart and souls into it. A family member recommended an agent who turned out all smiles and no action. The man couldn't communicate and seemed permanently preoccupied. To our dismay, I believe it really played a part in a disappointing… Read more
sale.
However..
Open Agent was fantastic. The sale of our 3 bedroom house was actually a pleasant experience from start to finish. I felt an immediate and fast growing sense of trust with them. I guess it was the surprising level of curiosity shown in my personal situation and what felt like genuine willingness to listen and help.
Open Agent found a few great agents but one stood out perfectly for me. It was a complete about turn on my first experience. Both Open Agent and the Real Estate agent I ended up with listened and worked hard to get me the best price for my property.
Two thumbs up Open Agent!! :-)

Unlawful spam galore – Chronic spammers. If you sign up for a property report you must provide your phone number. Even if you answer that you are not interested in selling you get call after call from different numbers from them. You also get emails you can't unsubscribe from. It's a business unlawfully misusing your contact details.
Hi there, Thank you for your review. We’re… Read more
Spam Callers – They continue to contact you even though you tell them the house is sold, and for you to be removed from their calling list. Hopeless pathetic company.

Grossly misleading and inaccurate – I entered a lot of personal information to get a list of agents in my area and data on their sales performance. No report was emailed but the website provided me with a shortlist of only three agents. I know for a fact there are heaps more, as I have viewed houses they are selling. Of the three, the data was scant and basically useless. I can't make any informed decisions from such primitive information. Very misleading and not recommended.

I stumbled across Open Agent while surfing the internet. I sent an enquiry about preparing for sale. I received a call which was professional, chatty, and helpful. Three agents in my area were recommended. They contacted me 1) was very keen for me to spend money on advertising and staging and then kept sending me advertsing; 2) messaged me and… Read more · 1

Very impressed – The lady was very polite and easy to talk to was going to brush the call off but due to how easy it was to talk with her I explained exactly my situation and she was easy to talk to about it and sounded like she listened
I required a market value in order for a family purchase and this has helped me immensely – I have had positive responses for all three sales representative.
Can't stop the spam – I signed up for a property report, which I never received. Since then I'm just getting spammed by email. The email's have no way to unsubscribe, which is against Australian consumer and spam laws. If you go to the website there is no way to contact them to stop being spammed unless you call them, which I definitely do not want to do. Suggest you avoid this company, unless you're bored and enjoy being spammed.
