Whether using newspaper or television ads, posters or signposts on the front lawn, the mechanism for selling a home has been the same for many decades: broadcast the message to the crowd and hope the right person finds it. Even the rise of modern online listing platforms, such as Domain and realestate.com.au, did not change this basic approach.
