📅 Detailed Timeline — Day 1 to Completion

Day 1–3
Smart Sell Listing Published
Seller pays the flat USD 180 platform listing fee via Peach Payments; property is published on Smart Sell with full property / business pack, professional photos, viewing schedule, guide price (if any), and special conditions. Marketing begins across the platform, email alerts, and partner channels in all 185 supported markets.
Day 3–7
Buyer Six-Month Registration Opens
Interested buyers submit their registration: government ID, proof of address, proof of funds or bank pre-approval, and pay the flat USD 200 non-refundable Smart Offer registration fee for six months of unlimited offer-making across every Smart Sell listing (auto-converted to the buyer’s local currency at Peach Payments’ live FX rate at checkout). Accepted payment methods include Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Scan to Pay, Pay By Bank, and Money Badger crypto. Verified buyers receive Smart Offer access credentials by email once FICA / KYC and payment are confirmed.
Day 4–8
Viewings & Property Pack Review
Scheduled viewing windows for the property. Buyers review the property / business pack: title deeds, survey reports, zoning certificates, compliance documents, and any encumbrances that will survive the sale. Professional inspections and legal advice are strongly recommended.
Day 7–9
Pre-Window Enquiries
Q&A period. Registered buyers submit questions via the platform. Propworths publishes answers visible to all registered buyers on the listing for transparency. Any addenda or changes to conditions are communicated here.
Day 10
📝 Offer Window Runs & Closes
The Smart Sell offer window opens at the scheduled time. Verified buyers within an active six-month registration submit offers with full terms — amount, deposit, cash / bond conditions, occupation date. Where a Live Offer Room is enabled, offers are visible in real time and buyers can improve their own before close. Minimum offer increments may apply. If an offer is submitted in the final 5 minutes, the window auto-extends to prevent last-second submission behaviour. At close, Propworths delivers the full offer log to the seller with the amount and terms of every offer.
Day 10 – 12 (post-close)
Seller Chooses — 48 Hours to Review & Agreement in Principle Issued
The seller has 48 hours from close to review every offer and choose freely — accept one, invite two buyers to improve terms, or decline every offer. The highest offer does not automatically win; there is no obligation on the seller to accept anything. If the seller accepts an offer, Propworths issues an Agreement in Principle recording the parties, the property, the amount and the terms. The Agreement in Principle is not a deed of sale and does not on its own transfer property — it commits both parties to instruct their attorneys and progress the transaction to a deed of sale in good faith.
Day 12–14
Attorneys Draft & Both Parties Sign the Deed of Sale
The seller nominates the conveyancing attorney (who acts as the transferring attorney on the sale); the buyer appoints their own attorney to represent their interests. The seller’s attorney drafts the deed of sale from the Agreement in Principle, both attorneys review, and both parties sign at the attorneys. The sale becomes legally binding on both parties on signature of the deed of sale. Deposit (per the accepted offer terms) is paid by the buyer into the seller’s conveyancing attorney’s trust account — never to Propworths.
Day 14–72
Balance Paid, Transfer & Registration — Seller Receives Full Purchase Price
The balance of the purchase price is payable to the seller’s conveyancing attorney’s trust account on the timeline recorded in the deed of sale — typically within 30 days of deed-of-sale signing for cash buyers, or within 60 days for bond buyers subject to bond approval. If the bond is formally declined by the buyer’s bank within the agreed window, treatment of the deposit is handled by the conveyancing attorney under the deed of sale. Title is registered at the deeds office (or local equivalent); keys are handed over on registration. The conveyancer then pays the seller the full purchase price (less local transfer / conveyancing / tax costs). No percentage commission is payable to Propworths on the sale. Exact timelines vary by country and complexity.
Note: Timelines are indicative and vary by country, property type, and complexity. Some jurisdictions may have mandatory cooling-off periods or additional regulatory steps. Always consult with your attorney for the specific process in your country. Smart Sell is not an auction; nothing binds either party until the deed of sale is signed at the attorneys.
