The Territory is a place like no other, and Territorians are embracing private sales! NT agent commissions average about 2.8% (AgentBridge, June 2026), among the highest in the country. On Darwin's median house price of $612,732 (Domain, June quarter 2026), that's more than $17,000. PLBO replaces it with one upfront fee, so you keep 100% of your sale proceeds!

Seven major portals, one listing
Your home goes live on PLBO and across Domain.com.au, view.com.au, homely.com.au, soho.com.au, realty.com.au, onthehouse.com.au and allhomes.com.au*. Many NT buyers are relocating from interstate for work, including Defence personnel, public servants and professionals, so national reach is a huge advantage! Buyers agents find your listing on PLBO too, plus Facebook campaigns and targeted notifications, depending on your package.

How NT sales work

- Cooling-off: four business days for non-auction sales, which can be waived, reduced or extended by agreement.
- Pools and spas: pool barrier compliance paperwork (or a statutory declaration if there's no pool) is part of every residential sale (NT.GOV.AU).
The full list is on the NT legal and tax checklist.
