Why Listing on Soho Is Free — and How It Still Drives Real Leads

In Australia, agents and sellers have long accepted that to get their properties seen, they must pay listing fees. These costs can run high on the largest portals and don’t guarantee results.

Soho turns this model on its head with a free‑to‑list approach that connects listings with active buyers and renters through smart technology rather than paywall exposure.

How free listings work on Soho

Free doesn’t mean basic. When you list on Soho, you gain access to a network of property seekers who are actively looking for homes like yours. Your listing includes high‑resolution photos, detailed descriptions, floor plans and location data.

You also have the option to integrate 3D tours and videos. All of this is visible to buyers and renters who match your property’s profile thanks to Soho’s PropertyMatch™ engine + Soho AI

Driving real leads through smart matching

Soho’s AI matching doesn’t just help buyers find their ideal home—it also matches the right audience to your listing. By analysing search behaviour, saved homes and engagement patterns, the platform surfaces your property to users most likely to be interested.

This targeted exposure leads to quality enquiries and inspection requests rather than a volume of irrelevant clicks.

According to industry research, AI can qualify leads more effectively by spotting serious buyers and matching properties to their preferences (varo.com.au,vtdigital.com.au).

The result: more genuine conversations and shorter time on market.

Making the most of your Soho listing

  • Write clear, concise descriptions that highlight unique features and recent upgrades.
  • Use professional photos and consider adding a virtual tour for immersive viewing.
  • Share your listing across your own social media and newsletters to drive more traffic.

If you’re an agent or seller, you can list your property for free and leverage Soho’s AI tools to ensure the right people see it. And for buyers, using AI matching means you’ll be shown homes that fit your needs.
