Real Estate Franchise Opportunities Australia

Local Property Team was founded on the Gold Coast in 2019 with a vision to build a modern, low-cost real estate franchise model around lower overheads, better technology, strong marketing and genuine support for its people.

From the beginning, our goal was to challenge the traditional high-cost agency model by giving real estate professionals access to the brand, systems, training and technology needed to operate their own business without the significant fixed costs typically associated with establishing a traditional real estate office.

Launching immediately before the disruption of COVID presented an early test for the business, but Local Property Team continued to grow and thrive, demonstrating the strength, flexibility and resilience of our model.

Since then, the business has expanded its services, developed its systems and technology, embraced AI and automation, grown its network and, more recently, expanded internationally.

We are now entering the next stage of our growth and are seeking applications from experienced real estate professionals, agency owners and property entrepreneurs across Australia who want to establish and grow their own Local Property Team business with a low-overhead, technology-driven franchise model.

Become a Founding Franchise Member in Your City

As part of this next phase, we are initially seeking one core franchise operator in each Australian capital city to become part of our founding national franchise group.

These founding members will have the opportunity to establish Local Property Team in their market, work closely with our leadership team as the network expands and secure a special low franchise fee for the lifetime of their franchise.

This is an opportunity to get involved at the beginning of our national expansion and become part of a new movement in Australian real estate focused on leaner agencies, better technology, stronger agent opportunities and lower traditional franchise overheads.

Advanced Real Estate Technology and Systems

Technology should make running a real estate business easier, not create more work. Local Property Team provides franchise owners and their teams with an integrated technology and systems platform designed to streamline day-to-day operations, improve productivity and create a better experience for agents and clients.

Our technology supports the key areas of a modern real estate business, including lead management, prospecting, property marketing, sales, property management, communication, reporting and digital marketing.

Artificial intelligence is also becoming a core part of how we operate. Rather than simply giving franchise owners access to AI tools, we show you how to practically use AI within your real estate business to save time, improve marketing, communicate more effectively, generate opportunities and automate repetitive tasks.

Our training helps franchise owners and agents understand how to incorporate AI into their everyday workflows, from prospecting and database management to content creation, property marketing, client communication and business administration.

By providing proven systems, technology and practical AI training from the beginning, franchise owners can avoid the time, complexity and expense of building their own technology stack or trying to work out how to use new technology on their own.

Our systems are designed to help agencies operate with lower overheads and greater efficiency, allowing franchise owners to focus their resources on the activities that matter most winning listings, generating leads, recruiting great agents and growing their business.

As technology and AI continue to evolve, Local Property Team remains focused on adopting, developing and teaching smarter ways for our franchise owners and agents to work, compete and grow.

Marketing Support to Grow Your Real Estate Business

Building a successful real estate agency requires more than a recognisable brand. Local Property Team provides franchise owners with comprehensive real estate marketing support designed to build local awareness, generate leads and help agents win more business.

Our marketing approach combines the strength of the Local Property Team brand with strategies that position each franchise as a genuine local real estate business within its community.

Franchise owners and their teams receive support across property marketing, social media, digital advertising, content creation, personal branding, database marketing, lead generation and search engine optimisation (SEO).

We also provide professionally designed marketing resources and brand assets, helping agencies maintain a consistent professional presence without needing to build an entire marketing department themselves.

Importantly, our approach isn't one-size-fits-all. We work with franchise owners to develop marketing strategies around their local market, business objectives and opportunities for growth, helping them build both the Local Property Team brand and their own profile within their community.

The goal is simple: give our franchise owners the marketing tools, knowledge and support to generate more opportunities, win more listings and grow a valuable local real estate business.

How Much Does a Real Estate Franchise Cost?

Local Property Team offers a simple and transparent franchise model designed to keep the cost of operating your real estate business low.

Our comprehensive franchise package is available from $1,995 per month + GST, providing franchise owners with access to the Local Property Team brand, training, business resources, marketing support and ongoing guidance.

This low monthly franchise fee helps reduce the overheads traditionally associated with operating a real estate franchise, giving owners greater flexibility to invest in growing their business, marketing their local brand and attracting high-performing agents.

Our low foundation franchise rate is currently available for selected locations, subject to availability and our franchise terms.

Technology subscriptions are optional and, where selected, are charged separately from the monthly franchise fee.

A Low-Cost Real Estate Franchise Model

Local Property Team offers a low-cost real estate franchise model designed for experienced agents and property professionals who want to build their own business without the high overheads traditionally associated with a real estate franchise.

Our Foundation Member franchise fee is $1,995 + GST per month, providing access to the Local Property Team brand, technology, systems, training and ongoing support while allowing you to focus on growing your local real estate business.

By keeping our real estate franchise fees affordable, franchise owners can invest more of their revenue into marketing, building their team and growing their local market presence.

If you're comparing real estate franchise opportunities in Australia, Local Property Team provides a modern, technology-driven alternative with a simple and transparent fee structure.

Why a Low Franchise Fee Matters

The cost of a real estate franchise has a direct impact on the profitability of the agency operating underneath it. High franchise fees, royalties and ongoing overheads can consume a significant portion of an agency's revenue before the business owner has had the opportunity to reinvest in growth.

Local Property Team was designed around a different approach: keep the franchise cost low and help our franchise owners run lean, efficient real estate businesses.

With a low monthly franchise fee, owners have greater control over where their money is invested. Instead of a large portion of revenue being absorbed by franchise costs, those funds can be directed towards the areas that actually grow the business — lead generation, marketing, recruiting agents, building a rent roll, improving customer service and expanding into new markets.

Lower franchise costs can also give agency owners greater flexibility when developing competitive commission structures for their agents. In an industry where attracting and retaining high-performing salespeople is critical, having the ability to offer a compelling commission structure can become a significant recruitment advantage.

For established agencies considering changing franchise networks, reducing ongoing franchise costs can also provide an opportunity to lower business overheads without giving up the benefits of belonging to a recognised real estate network.

Our philosophy is simple: provide franchise owners with the brand, training, marketing, systems and ongoing support they need, while keeping the cost structure lean enough to allow them to build a stronger and more profitable business.

Lower franchise costs. Lower overheads. More freedom to invest in growing your business.

What’s Included in Our Real Estate Franchise Fee?

Your Local Property Team franchise fee provides access to the brand, systems, training and business support designed to help you establish and grow a successful real estate agency.

Rather than simply licensing a brand name, our franchise model provides ongoing resources and expertise across the key areas required to operate and grow a modern real estate business.

Your franchise support includes:

• Local Property Team Brand – Operate under an established real estate brand while building a strong presence in your own local market.
• World-Class Training – Access real estate, sales, leadership, management and digital marketing training for you and your team.

Our goal is to provide the infrastructure and support of a real estate franchise while giving you the flexibility to build a business that works for your local market.

Optional technology subscriptions are available at an additional cost.

Build a Better Commission Structure for Your Agents

Attracting and retaining great agents is one of the biggest factors in building a successful real estate business. Your franchise model should help you compete for talent, not make it harder.

Local Property Team's low monthly franchise fee and lean operating model give franchise owners greater flexibility when designing commission structures for their sales team.

By reducing traditional franchise overheads, agency owners can choose to direct more of their revenue towards competitive agent commissions, performance incentives, recruitment, marketing and business growth.

Combined with our training, technology, marketing resources and ongoing support, this creates an environment where ambitious agents can build their careers while franchise owners build stronger, more productive teams.

For existing agency owners, it can also provide an opportunity to review the cost structure of their business and create a model that better supports agent attraction, retention and long-term growth.

A Real Estate Franchise Built Around Your Business

Every real estate market is different, and every franchise owner has different goals. That's why Local Property Team doesn't believe in forcing every agency into exactly the same business model.

Our franchise model provides the brand, training, marketing, systems and ongoing support of an established real estate network while giving franchise owners the flexibility to build a business suited to their local market.

Whether your focus is residential sales, property management, building a rent roll, growing a team of sales agents or developing multiple income streams, we can tailor the support and resources around the direction of your business.

Franchise owners maintain a strong local presence and the independence to make decisions within their business while benefiting from the experience, resources and support of the wider Local Property Team network.

It’s a model designed to help you build your own real estate business, not simply operate someone else’s.
