Products& Services GuideServicing Today’sReal Estate Professionals.
The Estate Agents Co-operative (EAC) is the largest real estate Co-operative in Australia.
Co-operatives are mutual organisations which are operated for the benefit of their members. Co-operatives are distinguished from other forms of organisation by their democratic structure and the fact that capital is used to service the common needs of the members, rather than to provide individual benefit.
Our mission is simple: To be a high profile real estate co-operative that provides its members with the opportunity to enhance market share and profitability.
EAC was best known in the property market place for the Multilist service, launched in 1981, where information about properties for sale is “multilisted” by EAC member agencies throughout a local area, as well as the Realtor publications.
In recent years EAC has evolved as a premium service provider to the real estate and property industry and we now provide a range of solutions to over 2000 Real Estate offices, Valuation businesses and government departments throughout Australia.
In 2007 we launched the realestateworld.com.au brand, the only totally independent industry owned and controlled online and offline marketing solution for real estate agents.
As a Co-operative, our members, the real estate agents are the shareholders, and it is for them and the industry that we exist. To this end we are not profit driven and strive to provide cost effective goods and services to the industry. This directly benefits our members and in some cases the greater industry as the competition we provide keeps down the rates of other non industry service providers.
Become a member and make a difference to your business, your bottom line and your Industry.
At EAC Members Come First!
Dale Whittaker
EAC Chairman
About EAC
A Co-operative is defined as a business owned and controlled equally by the people who use its services or who work at it. EAC is a membership based organisation and whereas it could be said that some other real estate associations and groups have lost their sense of what they exist for, which in turn has affected the level of services they provide, EAC on the other hand exists for one reason and one reason only and that is for the benefit of the members and the Industry they are part of.
With this philosophy in mind EAC provides its members with the latest in real estate technology & marketing products, giving their business a competitive edge, as well as, access to other additional services at the most economical rates.
To qualify as a member of the Co-operative you have to have an equal or majority shareholding in an active real estate business. To become a member of EAC you need to complete a membership Enquiry Form.
As a member of the Co-operative you are actually a shareholder and once your application for membership is accepted you will be allocated fifty $2.00 shares. Should you sell your business, retire or leave the Co-operative at some time in the future your share capital is refunded.

Red Square Listing Management
Red Square lets you manage and professionally market all your listings with a level of flexibility not found in many other real estate applications.
Central to the EAC Red Square system is the “key once – go to many” philosophy which is made possible by the sophisticated database that drives the Red Square System. Our Listings Management module provides a very quick and easy way to get your listings into Red Square.
Once your Listings are in Red Square they are instantly displayed on your own website if hosted by EAC or we can upload them to a multitude of different sites. For a full list see the Feeds and Uploads page.
With our Red Square listing management feature you can promote Exclusive, Auction, Open and Multilist listings for Residential, Land, Rural, Business and Commercial Industrial properties for sale as well as Residential, Holiday and Commercial properties for lease.
The Listing Management feature provides salespeople with a snapshot of your listing performance. If you are setup in our system as a principal for the office you will be provided the listing performance statistics at an office level as well. The information provided includes statistics on Your Current Listings, Office Current Listings, a reminder on when they are going to expire, Listings and Sales Statistics for the current month and year to date with a comparison to last financial year.
From a listing perspective you can also view statistics on the number of views, brochures and emails received for each listing.

One of the unique features of the Listing Managment system is the Distribution List.
The Distribution List (DL) is a unique feature of our Listing Management module and it allows you to share your exclusive listings with other offices using Red Square. The DL was designed for use by offices that may be part of a group of offices, or those offices that may wish to share their exclusive listings with other offices that they work closely with.
When a listing is entered into Red Square as an exclusive listing you are presented with the option of how that listing is to be distributed, with the choices being OWN or DL.
If OWN is selected then it is only made available to your office and it is not made available for any other office.
If DL is selected then the listing is made available to all offices that you have specified on your DL.
The DL is maintained by the Principal and is limited to users who have been assigned this level within the Red Square system.
Current Market Information

Current Market Information - SalesThe Current Market Information feature in Red Square for Sales provides you with the knowledge of what is currently available for sale on the market as well as what has recently sold. The sold information is typically what is obtained from agent entered information prior to us receiving the sale details from the LPI, at which stage it is matched and also provided.
Current Market Information - For LeaseThe Current Market Information feature in Red Square for Lease provides you with the knowledge of what is currently available for lease on the market as well as what has recently been leased.

EAC Web Services specialise in creative web design with cutting edge web development. Our services include website design, website hosting, mobile site offering and development, content management, domain name registration, search engine optimisation, social media set up & integration as well as providing a cost effective solution to best suit your business requirements.
We have been building web sites since 1997 when we launched Realnet and since that time have been building web sites for salespeople, offices, small and large real estate groups and even the realestateworld.com.au portal.
Rather than just providing a web site, we work with you to develop a complete internet strategy for your business based upon your requirements.
EAC Web Services recognise the time, effort and cost that can be spent on establishing a customised web presence. That’s why we have created our range of template sites to give you all these benefits through our option of either Starter, Pro or Elite template packages plus the assurance of an established and independent Real Estate Technology Company as your IT business partner.
The templates come in a number of Design options that can be customised to match your office branding.
Owning your own domain name is critical to your internet strategy and should be an integral part of establishing your business online. It’s an effective and economical tool for marketing your services, and helps people find you quickly and easily on the web. When choosing your domain name you need to consider how it aligns with your offline profile and ensure that it’s easy for customers to remember.
We can assist you with the selection, registration and maintenance of your chosen domain name. Alternatively, you can take care of this yourself and simply point your domain to our servers where your web site is hosted.
If you already have a domain name and would like us to host it in conjunction with your web site then we can also assist with the process of getting it moved over.

Social Media Marketing

Social media marketing is an engagement with online communities to generate exposure, opportunity and sales.
Estate Agents Co-operative understands the real estate industry, traditional marketing techniques and has a thorough understanding of social media marketing and can provide principals, salespeople and property managers and your office with the tools you need to harness the power of social media.
Social media marketing provides real estate professionals with the opportunity to get closer than ever to your potential and existing clients at a fraction of the cost of traditional marketing methods.
If you’re one of the about 800 million people using Facebook, you already know that it’s no longer just an online place for teenagers to catch up. Facebook and the other social media sites such as Twitter and LinkedIn provide a way to stay in touch with family and friends, as well as to connect with colleagues and clients.
If you are not using social media currently, then the time has come where you need to start considering adding it to your marketing mix. You would be surprised just how many of your competitors, colleagues and clients already are. The longer you leave it, the further ahead they get! You have a choice you can embrace social media or ignore it and watch your competition pass you by.
Real Estate consumers have changed, they are educated, motivated, tech savvy and are looking for both constant and instant communication. They are looking for someone that can be a trusted advisor. It is these consumers that will drive the change in the industry leading to a new breed of Real Estate Agents.
Social Media Marketing is about positioning yourself as an expert and engaging people. It is about moving from Offline to Online. It is about listening and sharing. It is about giving advice and passing on knowledge and reaching someone you maybe not otherwise have reached. Most of all it’s about achieving a maximum internet search presence.
There’s no denying that Social Media is changing the way people communicate and in time the way they buy and sell homes and the way you run your business.
With this in mind the EAC team has developed a package to get your social media presence underway. Our package takes all the hard work out of setting up and maintaining your social media presence and we are committed to helping you along the way with regular updates and tips as we find ways to do things and achieve better results.
Our Social Media Marketing Office package includes the setup and configuration of the following:
• FacebookBusinessPage• SetupofthenecessaryapplicationsonFacebook• CompanyProfileonLinkedIn• CompanyAccountonTwitter• BasiccustomisationofTwitterbackground• SocialMedialinksintheOfficeProfileinRedSquare• GoogleAccount,Google+Profile,GooglePlaces,GoogleAlerts,YouTubeChannelandAnalytics• SetupofWordpressBlog• SubmissionofalllinkscreatedtoGoogleIndexandBingSearchEngine• SetupofuploadsfromRedSquaretoSocialMediasites.• Thelinkingofalltheabovetoprovideupdatestoeachofthesiteautomaticallyfromasingle post in most cases.
Prior to performing the setup you will forward a list of information, pictures and logos that will be required during the setup process and once completed your new social media presence will instantly start achieving results!
To find out more about this exciting new package contact EAC Web Services on 1300 137 161.
From as little as $250 per month your office can have a Premium Office Web Siteand all the tools needed to develop an effective social media strategy for success!

Office Compliance ReviewWhen did you last think about or check that your office procedures properly demonstrate compliance with the Property, Stock and Business Agents Act 2002 and Regulation 2003 and the Supervision Guidelines issued by the Commissioner for Fair Trading? You may think, “We’re good” or that an audit from the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) is unlikely. Think again. All it takes is a disgruntled client, prospect or tenant to contact OFT with a complaint.
Honest mistakes do happen. You can minimise the risk by having an independent assessment of your work practices. An incorrect agency agreement can lead to loss of commission and token attempts of compliance such as “we have checklists” can expose you to fines and penalties.
What you can expect: Our on-site visit will identify compliance weaknesses and areas of risk. You will receive immediate advice; often you can fix problems on the spot; followed by a written report of findings and recommendations. It is that easy.
