Listing No Longer Available
You will report when the listing is sold, leased, withdrawn or otherwise becomes unavailable within 5 working days of it becoming unavailable,

Payment of Commission
When we are successful in identifying and introducing you to the Buyer of your listing, commission is due within three working days of settlement (final payment), unless you have agreed to extended payment terms or progress payments, in which case, commission is due within three working days of the first payment following the deposit,

In the event, either you or we withdraw, suspend or cancel the listing AND you subsequently sell to a Buyer we identified and introduced to you while the listing was current, commission is due to us at the previously agreed rate within five working days of settlement (final payment),

Extra Listing Services
Our Standard Listing Plan is our base product which provides very good advertising exposure in order to find you a Buyer and/or Lessee. Some Sellers want better exposure in order to sell and/or to sell quickly. To meet this requirement we offer 'Extra Listing Services'. In addition to advertising we provide free of charge under the Standard Listing Plan, Sellers may also choose to buy (at their discretion), the following Extra Listing Services:

Listing Highlight
Your Listing will be highlighted in YELLOW where-ever it appears in our Listings pages. Typically, this makes the Listing stand out from others that are not highlighted and browsers of the site (most probably looking for a business to buy) are drawn to read your Listing.



Featured Listing
Our home page, which is the most viewed page in our website, displays featured listings and many people who view our website like to read the featured listings before searching in more detail. Purchasing a 'Featured Listing' will place your Listing in this section of our website which increases your exposure and/or chances of selling.



Push to Top
All of our Listings are routinely displayed in date order. The newest Listing is at the front (or on top) of all appropriate listing sections. We offer 'Push to Top' to Sellers so they can re-position their listing to the front or top of the list (in all appropriate sections). This may be done by the Seller as frequently as they wish during the purchase period which means people who are looking for listings, will see their listing first! Importantly, as new listings are added, your listing will move down the list. Similarly, if others use the Push to Top feature, your listing will also be moved down the list, but for long as your Push to Top service is current you just have to login and push to top and your listing returns to the top again and you can do this as often as you wish.



Regular Listing
Applicable only with a Standard Listing Plan, a regular listing is a posted advertisement in a businesses for sale, or other relevant website or portal. We place the advertisement on your behalf, monitor it, alter it (as needed to changed listing information and/or price), respond to enquiries and develop leads as they are received.



Social Media Posts and Shares
Applicable only with a Standard Listing Plan, your listing is posted and/or shared to relevant social media groups, pages, channels. We place the posts on your behalf, monitor them, respond to enquiries and develop leads as they are received.

The media platforms/channels used (like facebook, linkedin, gab, minds, youtube, twitter, etc) are at our discretion based upon your listing type, price, location etc and are available as follows:

30 posts/shares a month

60 posts/shares a month

90 posts/shares a month

Facebook Boost
A Facebook Boost is a Facebook product. Boosted posts in Facebook are more targeted and routinely receive a much high engagement. We place a post on your behalf, boost it, monitor, respond to enquiries and develop leads as they are received.

Extra Listing Services may be purchased at the time a Listing is published, or at any time thereafter while the Listing remains current. These services are available to purchase in 90-consecutive-day blocks only and may be purchased at your xxMyOrders page, when you are logged in and have an active Standard Listing Plan.
