In spirited bidding today broker.com.au sold for $100,000 on drop catching platform Drop.com.au.
The successful bidder also secured brokers.com.au, the sale price of which was not disclosed, but which had a bid on competing platform Netfleet.com.au for $26,100. The successful purchaser was NHC ADVISORS PTY LTD. Broker is suitable for many industries including stock brokers, insurance brokers, mortgage brokers and even domain name brokers.
Today was a cracking day on the drops with advice.com.au selling for $26,100 (plus GST).
We recently wrote about another significant sale of CPA.com.au which sold for $50,000.
These sales demonstrate the continued strength in the .au domain name after market. The best thing about these sales is that end users secured them for wholesale prices.
Not bad for expired auctions, with less than 24 hours notice.
Some have said the .au market is coming back. I say it never went anywhere. I have heard from others privately that Q4, 2018 -prior to the publication of recent five and now six figure expired auction results- was actually a very good period for them.
I guess the nice corollary of public sales like this is that some less successful investors might now finally have reason to smile.
It’s a difficult thing too, as high quality names hardly ever drop / expire, meaning higher expired auction results are usually patchy. That is why DBR, DomainNames.com.au and others who make the effort to publish some of the sales they broker should be commended.
