Launching in Christchurch — now
No commission · one flat fee

Sell your own home.
Save thousands.

OpenKey is the marketing service that makes selling your own home easy — professional photography, your listing on Trade Me, realestate.co.nz & Open Locally, a for-sale sign, open-home hosting, an AI-powered open-home bot and a live enquiry dashboard. No agent, no commission — just one flat fee. You stay in control; your solicitor handles the contract, exactly as always.

The maths is brutal

An agent takes about $25,000. We charge one flat fee.

A typical New Zealand agent charges around 3.95% on the first $400,000 + 2% on the rest, plus GST. On an $800,000 sale that's roughly $25,000 — gone, before you've paid your lawyer. OpenKey is a flat fee instead.

3.95% on first $400,000$15,800
2% on the remaining $400,000$8,000
+ GST (15%)$3,570
Typical agent commission≈ $27,370
Scales and thresholds vary by agency — but on most NZ homes the commission lands in the $20,000–$30,000 range. Indicative figures.

OpenKey, flat fee

One flat fee — not a percentage of your home. Keep the rest of the commission in your own pocket.

What Fisbo charges

OpenKey undercuts the main NZ DIY service at every level of help.

You stay the owner

Every decision is yours — you set the price, read every offer, and say yes. We never negotiate or accept on your behalf.

How it works

Three steps. You stay in the driver's seat.

We do the legwork and keep it all in one tidy dashboard. You make every call that matters.

01

We get you listed, properly

HDR photography, a sharp listing, and syndication onto Trade Me, realestate.co.nz and homes.co.nz — plus a quality for-sale sign at your gate. The same shopfront a buyer sees from any agent.

02

Open homes — your way

Host your own open homes, or have us host every one for you. Either way, enquiries and offers land in one dashboard, filtered and ready. We host — we never sell or negotiate on your behalf.

03

You accept — your solicitor closes

You read the offers, pick your buyer and say yes. Your own solicitor handles the sale & purchase agreement and settlement, exactly as they would on any sale.

What's in the flat fee

Everything an agent gives you, minus the agent.

One price covers the whole campaign. Conveyancing is the only thing handled outside OpenKey — by your own solicitor, the same as every house sale.

Photography

Pro HDR photography

A professional photographer shoots your home so it shows at its best across every portal.

Listing + syndication

Live on Trade Me, realestate.co.nz, homes.co.nz — and your local Open Locally buyer audience — through a proper listing backbone.

Presence

A real for-sale sign

A quality sign at your gate — the single biggest source of local buyer interest.

Your page

Your own listing page

A dedicated page for your home you can share anywhere — social, email, word of mouth.

Control

On Full Service and Premium we open the door and register every visitor. We host — we don't sell or negotiate.

Powered by OpenKey software

An AI bot does the talking. You get the buyers.

This is the part an agent can't hand you. Every listing comes with our software — the bit that makes selling your own home feel effortless and professional, not a second job.

Every buyer who scans your sign or QR talks to this — and every question, viewing and offer lands in your dashboard.

AI open-home bot

Buyers scan a QR at your open home or on your sign. Our AI assistant greets them, answers questions about your home, and captures who they are and what they're after — so you've always got a smart assistant with you on the journey, never doing it all on your own.

One live dashboard

Every enquiry, viewing and offer in one place — who's interested, what they asked, what they offered. Your whole campaign at a glance, on any device.

Instant lead alerts

Get a message the second a buyer registers at an open home or makes an offer — on Telegram and in your dashboard. Offers come straight to you to consider; we never negotiate on your behalf.
