How this is calculated

The tenant’s contribution is fixed at 50% of the first year’s rent and held at that amount for the whole term of up to eight years, so the yearly figure is the same in every year of it. Market rent is held constant on both sides here, so the eight-year figure is the contracted contribution alone — it excludes any rent reviews, holding costs, finance and tax. Eligibility depends on the property, its location and its current tenancy. Figures are indicative and subject to change.

Top 10 Reasons to Partner with PublicSquare

Differentiate your offer

Rent-to-Sell is a category-defining property model pioneered by PublicSquare. Unlike conventional property offerings, it gives marketing groups a genuinely differentiated proposition to take to market. That gives your sales team something new to talk about with prospects, and gives new enquiries and existing leads a compelling reason to engage with your business.

Bring your own stock

Rent-to-Sell is not restricted to a single development or project pipeline. The model applies to standard three and four bedroom house-and-land packages under $1 million across more than 50 locations in Queensland and New South Wales. You keep the flexibility to work with the stock you already source, rather than being locked into a particular project or developer.

Keep your full commission

Introducing a client to Rent-to-Sell does not require you to forgo your existing commission. You retain 100% of the commission you generate from the underlying property transaction, and gain access to an additional revenue opportunity through the referral on top of it.

Earn an additional $2,000 per referral

Every eligible property referred through your business can generate a $2,000 referral commission. You can retain that revenue within your business or, where appropriate, use it as an additional client incentive. Either way it is a new income stream from transactions and relationships you are already generating.

No additional work

Rent-to-Sell is designed to fit into your existing sales process without creating another operational workload for your team. Once a client is referred, PublicSquare manages the process end to end, so your team keeps focusing on sourcing clients, selling property and building relationships.

Keep the client relationship

Rent-to-Sell gives you another valuable solution to bring to your clients without handing the relationship to someone else. Rather than referring a client away when their circumstances do not fit a conventional property strategy, you introduce an alternative and stay at the centre of the relationship — which means more opportunities to add value and to generate future business from the same client.

Sell multiple properties

Rent-to-Sell can create an opportunity to transact with clients beyond their first purchase. The additional cashflow strengthens the overall economics of the investment and, subject to the client’s individual circumstances and applicable lending criteria, may support their ability to consider further purchases over time. A single client transaction can become a longer-term property relationship.

Use conventional property finance

Rent-to-Sell is structured around standard residential property, so eligible clients can use conventional home-loan finance rather than specialist lending structures. That removes a layer of complexity from the proposition: there is no requirement to introduce a specialist financing product simply to access the model.

Increase your revenue per client

Rent-to-Sell is a way to increase the revenue generated from clients you have already acquired, rather than relying solely on a constant flow of new leads. Between the underlying property transaction, your existing commission and the referral, there are more ways to monetise each client relationship.

Re-engage your existing database

Your database is an asset you have already paid to build. Rent-to-Sell gives you a genuinely new reason to reconnect with clients and prospects who no longer respond to your traditional offers — and it is not limited to new acquisitions, because it can also be applied to a property a client already owns. Instead of paying again for the next lead, you create opportunities from the relationships you already have.

PublicSquare were fantastic throughout the entire process.

50% extra is pretty big. And I really like how I, as an investor, can help other Australians get into homes.

As a chartered accountant, I have conducted in-depth research, including "what-if" analyses of potential risks. Rent-to-Sell is a great solution that bridges the needs of both investors and homebuyers. For investors, it’s almost a no-brainer. This model provides additional cash flow during ownership while also protecting against unfavourable market conditions with a minimum price guarantee.

We would 100% recommend PublicSquare to anyone looking to purchase a home. There are no hidden costs or deceptive information. Impeccable customer service and a really amazing business model.

Not only do I recommend PublicSquare, I believe that they have a model, style, process and organisational focal point that is best in market. The fact that the price is locked in at a predetermined annual increase, that is more than reasonable, is exactly what helps me sleep at night.

I would like to personally thank you for your support, collaboration, and the many constructive discussions throughout this process. Your input has been greatly appreciated and has contributed significantly to what I believe is an excellent outcome. I look forward to finalising the Rent-to-Sell agreement and moving forward with an arrangement that not only supports my long-term wealth creation objectives but also provides the tenant with stability and a genuine pathway towards home ownership.
