High-split real estate agency model
Ownly's commercial model is built for top-performing agents. There is no setup fee, no monthly subscription and no transaction fee added at settlement — just a transparent franchise fee and a high commission split.
Ownly is…
Ownly is a New Zealand real estate platform for licensed, experienced agents. A 10% franchise fee applies per sale; you keep 90% of the remainder up to $1m GCI and 100% above it, with brand, website, operations and support included.
| Area | Typical franchise | Ownly |
|---|---|---|
| Who it's for | Mixed experience under a national brand. | Licensed, experienced New Zealand agents. |
| Fee | Often 40–60% plus desk, marketing and admin fees. | 10% franchise fee on each settled sale. |
| What you keep | The remainder after franchise take and levies. | 90% of the remainder ($0–$1m GCI). 100% of the remainder above $1m. |
| Brand | Generic colours, logo and templates. | A bespoke brand, website and tech stack built around you. |
| Back office | Often billed separately or pro-rated. | Supervision, CRM, portals, operations and support included. |
10% off the full GCI, then 10% off the remainder. The second 10% does not apply above $1m GCI. Comparison is generic and educational; specific franchise split structures vary.
How the split works
Ownly takes 10% off the full GCI, then 10% off the remainder, up to $1m GCI. Above $1m the second 10% is not charged on the excess. There are no setup fees, monthly subscriptions, or transaction fees added at settlement.
Why this matters
Most franchise structures cap your earnings as you grow. Ownly is designed so the harder you work, the bigger the share you keep.
