listsocial Terms & Conditions

Welcome to ListSocial. Our marketplace helps to facilitate digital offers for property sales between sellers and potential buyers.

These terms and conditions (Terms) are entered into between ListSocial Pty Ltd ACN 646 986 245 (we, us or our) and you, together the Parties and each a Party. These Terms include our privacy policy and website terms of use.

We provide a platform where sellers (Vendors) and property buyers (Buyers) can connect and start the process of selling and buying a property (Platform). The Platform is available at www.listsocial.com.au and may be available via other channels or addresses.

In these Terms, you means (as applicable) the person or entity registered with us as either a Buyer or an Agent, or the individual accessing or using the Platform including as a Buyer or Agent.

If you are using the Platform on behalf of your employer or a business entity, you, in your individual capacity, represent and warrant that you are authorised to act on behalf of your employer or the business entity and to bind the entity to these Terms.

Acceptance
You accept these Terms by checking the box, clicking “I accept” or using the Platform or our Services. You must be at least 18 years old to use the Platform.

We may amend these Terms at any time, by providing written notice to you. By clicking “I accept” or continuing to use the Platform after the notice or 30 days after notification (whichever date is earlier), you agree to the amended terms. If you do not agree to the amendment, you may terminate these Terms in accordance with the “Cancellation” clause.

We may use Google Maps/Earth mapping services, including Google Maps API(s). Your use of Google Maps/Earth is subject to the Google Maps/Google Earth Additional Terms of Service.

Platform summary
We provide the Platform to users (including hosting and maintaining the Platform), allow Sellers and Buyers to connect and transact, and generate contract of sale documents, (together the ListSocial Services). You understand and agree that we only make available the Platform and the ListSocial Services. We are not a party to any agreement entered into between a Buyer and an Agent, or between a Buyer and a property owner, and we have no control over the conduct of Sellers, Buyers or any other users of the Platform.

An Agent wanting to sell a property on behalf of a property owner creates an Account (defined below) on the Platform. The Platform has functionality from which an Agent can create an online campaign to advertise the property, during which Buyers can bid on the property (Campaign). Each Campaign starts on the Agent’s chosen start date at 9am in the timezone that the Campaign is based, and ends on the chosen end date at 9pm in that same timezone (Campaign End Date). A Campaign will contain an accurate and complete description of the property being sold, including a minimum start price, and minimum bid rise prices (Campaign Listing). As an Agent, you agree to regularly update your Campaign Listings to keep them accurate and current.

A Buyer wanting to bid on a property creates an Account on the Platform to view and browse Campaign Listings.

A Buyer may bid on a property in a Campaign Listing through the Platform (Bid). We may contact Buyers who have placed a Bid and charge a Bid Deposit (defined below). Sell may independently request a holding deposit from Buyers who have placed a Bid. Sellers will be notified each time a Bid is placed. ListSocial must approve Bids in order for Bids to be approved on the Campaign Listing with a Buyer’s ID reference code. Buyers will be notified each time a higher Bid is placed, and Buyers will have the opportunity to increase their Bid.

By creating a Campaign, the Agent confirms that it is legally entitled to and capable of supplying the services described in the Campaign Listing. After the Campaign End Date, Sellers will have the opportunity to counter offer, accept, or decline all Bids. Once an Seller accepts a Bid through the Platform, it becomes an Accepted Bid. Buyers will receive a notification via email and SMS if their Bid is not accepted. When an Accepted Bid is created, Sellers and Buyers can communicate externally from the Platform to negotiate the contract of sale.

Alternatively, ListSocial will use the Platform functionality to email a Digital Contract link with the contract of sale to the Buyer.

Buyers and Sellers can communicate privately using our private messaging service, or offline using the listed contact details.

Accounts
You must register on the Platform and create an account (Account) to access the Platform’s features.

You may only have 1 Account as either or both an Agent and a Buyer on the Platform.

You must provide basic information when registering for an Account including your business name (if relevant), contact name, mobile number and email address. Buyers will use their email address as their username, and must choose a password. We will check Buyers’ contact details once by sending an SMS to their mobile number.

You agree to provide accurate, current and complete information during the registration process and regularly update such information to keep it accurate, current and complete.

Your Account is personal and you must not transfer it to others, except with our written permission. If a legal entity such as a company has created an Account, you, the legal entity, are the Account owner, and regardless of any change in any contact details, you will remain responsible for your Account as set out in these Terms. If you wish to change the Account owner, you must provide us with a written request to transfer the ownership of the Account to the incoming party, which must also include the incoming party’s written consent to take over full responsibility for the Account.

You are responsible for keeping your Account details and your username and password confidential and you will be liable for all activity on your Account, including purchases made using your Account details. You agree to immediately notify us of any unauthorised use of your Account.

If you are an Agent, we will review your request for an Account before approving the request. We may request additional information, including your real estate licence and other documentation to verify your authorisation to provide the services. If you do not provide us with information we reasonably request, we may refuse to create an Account for you. If you provide us with any information which indicates you are not a fit and proper person to be provided with an Account, we may refuse to provide you with an Account, in our sole discretion.

We may make access to and use of certain parts of the Platform subject to conditions or requirements, including identity verification, cancellation history, quality of the services and threshold of reviews.

Payment
It is free to register an Account on the Platform or for other users to review content on the Platform, including Campaign Listings.

As an Agent, you agree to pay the relevant fees set out on the Platform each time you create a new Campaign (Campaign Fee).

As a Buyer, you agree to pay the relevant deposit set out on the Platform when you make a Bid on a new Campaign Listing (Bid Deposit).

We may pre-authorise or charge your payment method for a nominal amount to verify the payment method.

We provide a number of payment methods on the Platform, including our third party payment processor. The payment method you choose may be subject to additional terms and conditions imposed by the applicable third party payment processor. By making payment through a third party payment processor, you accept the applicable terms and conditions.

In the absence of fraud or mistake, all payments made are final. If you make a payment by debit card or credit card, you warrant that the information you provide to us is true and complete, that you are authorised to use the debit card or credit card to make the payment, that your payment will be honoured by your card issuer, and that you will maintain sufficient funds in your account to cover the payment.

Refunds and Cancellation Policy
The cancellation or variation of any Bids made on this Platform is strictly a matter between the relevant Buyer and Agent.

If an Agent wants to cancel a Campaign before the Campaign End Date, they may do so using the cancellation feature on the Platform, and Buyers who have placed a Bid will be notified by email and text message.

If a Buyer wants to cancel their Bid, they may do so using the Bid cancellation feature on the Platform.

For disputes between Buyers and Agents, we encourage Parties to attempt to resolve disputes with the other Party directly and in good faith, either on the Platform or through external communication methods. In the event that a dispute cannot be resolved through these means, the Parties may choose to resolve the dispute in any manner agreed between the Parties or otherwise in accordance with applicable laws.

Reviews
Buyers may review their experience with the Agent on the Platform (Review).

Reviews can be viewed by any user and will remain viewable until the relevant Account is removed or terminated.

You agree to provide true, fair and accurate information in your Review. If we consider that the Review is untrue, unfair, inaccurate, offensive or inappropriate, we may delete the Review or ban you from posting the Review. We do not undertake to review each Review. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for the content of any Reviews.

You can write a Review about an Agent if you have had an experience with that Agent, which means that: (1) you have engaged the Agent through the Platform; or (2) you can otherwise document your interaction with the Agent in relation to the Platform, including via correspondence (collectively referred to as an Experience).

You may not write a Review about an Agent if you are an executive or employee of that Agent, or work for the Agent. Similarly, you may not write a Review about a direct competitor to the Agent you are employed by or work for.

Your Experience must have occurred in the 12 months prior to you writing a Review.

You may only write about your own Experience. You are not permitted to write a Review about somebody else’s Experience, such as that of a family member or friend.

You are encouraged to be specific and factual in your Reviews. If you have been offered an incentive by an Agent to write a Review, you should include information about this in your Review. Incentives include the Agent offering you a gift, reward, discount or advantage for writing a Review about the Agent on the Platform.
