We recognise and respect the vital role you play in the Australian property market. You have been entrusted by landowners with their most significant asset, tasking you with finding the precise buyer while maximizing their return. Our intention is not to disrupt your exclusive listings, but to present a sophisticated, collaborative option that is designed specifically for unique acreage, rural, and off-grid properties that require a specialized approach.

We represent the COA Australia Group (Camping, Outdoors and Accommodation), a large and established cooperative ecosystem of Australian outdoor and manufacturing industry leaders. We have recently launched a radical proposal to the Australian caravan and 4WD industries—If the industry funds the land, the industry owns the future. Read about it Here.

To fulfil this mission, we are acquiring a nationwide network of private "Secret Squirrel" properties. We offer your vendor a complementary, non-negotiable alternative that removes the primary paint points of a standard open market listing while ensuring they receive 100% of their current listed price—without any negotiation deductions.

Recognising the Challenges for Specialised Property Owners

While you work hard to market every listing, unique rural and off-grid acreage carries specific structural challenges that even professional representation cannot always overcome:

1. Market Stagnation and Niche Buyers: The pool of legitimate buyers for specialised rural properties is small. Standard open market listings can lead to listing fatigue and downward price pressure.
2. Significant Transaction and Marketing Costs: The commission (2.5% to 5%) and substantial marketing packages erode a vendor's net proceeds. On a $1M rural asset, these costs can easily approach $50,000.
3. Loss of Privacy ("Prying Eyes"): A public listing broadcasts a property's address to the general market long before a serious buyer is identified. Curious locals, "looky-loos," or neighbours with prying eyes compromise the vendor's privacy.

Our complementary purchasing strategy is designed to address all three points while maximising your vendor's proceeds.

The COA Strategy: Confidentially Securing Full Price and Zero Commission

COA is detailed in a landmark publication regarding our unique Collective Ownership model. We use this model to bypass traditional Development Approvals (DAs) for many of our properties, as our verified members use their collective shareholding to defend their right of stay. We claim—legally—that the user is a collective owner.

This model allows us to offer your vendor an unprecedented level of certainty.

Our Non-Negotiable, Full-Price Guarantee

COA will pay your client's full asking price, exactly as currently listed with your agency.

We do not engage in price reduction strategies. We accept the current listed price as the final, non-negotiable valuation. Our goal is ensuring your client receives 100% of the property's listed value.

By utilising the COA purchasing pathway, zero commission is deducted from the vendor's payout. Your client receives the entire listed amount, maximising their net proceeds.

Operationalising the Strategic Lease-to-Buy Agreement

To access our guaranteed, full-price offer, we require a strategic leasing partnership that benefits your vendor before the final purchase.

As a cooperative, we generate capital by selling shares to our industry partners and members. This capital-raising phase takes time. Your client's patience facilitating a complementary partnership eliminates any requirement for them to reduce their price while allowing immediate access to our specialised community.

Your client agrees to enter into a long-term lease agreement with COA, providing verified, authorised collective members immediate access to the land while the funds are finalised for the purchase.

This is the cornerstone of the risk management that allows us to legally defend the collective owners' right of stay.

Key Advantages for You and Your Vendor

This complementary pathway provides your client with immediate benefits:

1. Generate Immediate, Secure Income: While the capital-raising phase progresses, COA is paying your client a negotiated lease rate. The asset can generate positive cash flow rather than sitting dormant.
2. Maintaining Complete, Guaranteed Privacy: Your location never gets publicly listed by COA. Its location is shared only as a "Secret Squirrel" secret, shared exclusively with verified, authorised collective members, ensuring that the property has zero prying eyes and no open inspections.
3. A Certain Sale and Exit: The cooperative model is powerful. We are not a speculative developer hoping for approvals; we are a collective of manufacturers and members who need land access. Entering into this agreement provides your vendor with a guaranteed exit, at full listed price, without negotiation.

Collaboration with Agents: Transparency and Strategy

We recognise that you have an active, professional relationship with your vendor. We encourage you to share this proposal with them. We are happy to work transparently with you to facilitate the leasing agreement and the subsequent final transaction.

We are ready to provide the infrastructure that protects your client's net proceeds and secures a finalised sale at their full listed price.
