For real estate agents in NSW
NSW is moving to mandatory energy disclosure at point of sale. That means every vendor you sign will need a certified NatHERS assessment before listing.
We connect your sellers with certified assessors, handle the scheduling, and deliver the certificate — usually within 3–5 business days. You don't manage anything. You just refer.

The short version: the government wants buyers to see a home's energy rating before they make an offer. Here's where things stand.
NSW launched a voluntary energy disclosure pilot in 2025. Sellers can choose to include a NatHERS rating on listings. The government has signalled this will become mandatory.
The rating must be conducted by a certified assessor using accredited software. It produces a star rating out of 10 and a Whole-of-Home score out of 100.
As the first professional a seller speaks to, you'll be the one explaining the requirement. Agencies with a smooth process will stand out.
Use these talking points in your listing presentation. Sellers respond better when the assessment is framed as a benefit, not a burden.
"Why do I need this?"
NSW is moving to mandatory energy disclosure. Getting your rating done now means you're ahead of the rush — and it shows buyers you're transparent. Homes with disclosed ratings attract more serious buyers.
"How much does it cost?"
Between $300 and $550 for a standard home. The seller pays the assessor directly — it's not an agency cost. We've negotiated competitive rates for our partner agencies.
"What if my house gets a low rating?"
A low rating isn't a problem — it's just information. Most Australian homes rate 2–3 stars. Buyers appreciate the honesty, and it helps them budget for future improvements. Transparency builds trust and can actually speed up the sale.
"How long does it take?"
The assessment itself takes 1–2 hours on-site. You'll have the certificate within 3–5 business days. We recommend booking it as soon as you sign the listing agreement so it's ready before the first open.
"Can't we just skip it?"
You can during the voluntary pilot, but it's heading mandatory. Doing it now means you're prepared, and you avoid the bottleneck when every agent in NSW is trying to book an assessor at the same time.
You don't need a formal partnership to get started. Book a single assessment right now — it takes 30 seconds.
WhatsApp us the property address and your preferred assessment window. That's it — we handle the rest.
A certified NatHERS assessor visits the property for 1–2 hours. The seller can be present or provide access.
You and the seller receive the official NatHERS certificate within 3–5 business days. Ready for the listing.
If your agency lists regularly, a partnership gives your sellers better pricing and your team a single point of contact for all assessments.
The more listings you refer, the better the rate your sellers get. Tiered pricing makes the assessment cost a non-issue in the listing conversation.
One point of contact for your entire agency. We handle assessor coordination, scheduling, and certificate delivery so your team stays focused on selling.
Partners get 3–5 day standard turnaround. Need it faster for an urgent listing? We arrange express assessments to match your timeline.
Every assessor holds current NatHERS accreditation, professional indemnity, and public liability insurance. Your agency's reputation is protected.
The seller pays the assessor directly. It's not an agency cost. You simply refer the seller to us and we handle the booking, assessment, and certificate delivery.
The average Australian home rates 2–3 out of 10 stars, so low ratings are normal. Disclosure builds buyer trust. Many agents find it actually speeds up sales because buyers appreciate the transparency.
NSW is currently in a voluntary pilot phase. The government has signalled it will become mandatory. Agencies that establish their process now avoid the bottleneck when every agent in the state needs assessors simultaneously.
Standard turnaround is 3–5 business days from the on-site visit. Express options are available for urgent listings. The assessment itself takes 1–2 hours on-site.
