Why should I do a real estate auctioneer course?

You’re always a step ahead if you’ve done formal study in the area of real estate you choose to work in. You can’t gain 100% of the expertise you need from experience alone.

Completing the auctioneer course in NSW is mandated as part of registering to be an accredited auctioneer with NSW Fair Trading. It is against the law in NSW to conduct an auction without being a licensed agent accredited to act as an auctioneer. This accreditation will also equip you with the knowledge and skills you need, and enhance your reputation as an auctioneer.

In Victoria, there are no licensing requirements to work as an auctioneer, but completing the three units of study will expand your knowledge of the auction process, enable you to communicate better with your clients, and provide depth and scope to your role as an auctioneer. You’ll also gain clarity around the legal processes involved in selling by auction.

What are the entry requirements for the Auctioneering Accreditation course?

To be eligible to enrol in this course in NSW, you must hold a Real Estate Licence (Class 2), or have completed 15 units of the CPP41419 Certificate IV in Real Estate Practice course.

Prior to commencing the course you will be required to complete an LLND (Language, Literacy, Numeracy and Digital Literacy) assessment.

You will also be required to provide a Unique Student Identifier (USI) number. If you do not currently have one you will be able to register at usi.gov.au.

Who issues my statement of attainment or transcript of results?

What skills are required to become an auctioneer?

Aside from the obvious qualifications, there are several key traits that any successful auctioneer will be able to draw upon. These include:

problem solving skills, drawing on complex legislation to sell someone’s home correctly.
solid people skills, in order to appreciate the mindsets of buyers, sellers, and the crowd present for the auction.
strong leadership skills and able to market both themselves and properties effectively.
independent worker and able to accomplish targets without direct assistance.
driven by the increasing population of migrants looking to purchase property in Australia, auctioneers with a command of a language other than English is a massive benefit.
comfortable working with people with diverse backgrounds and individual personalities and flexible to their interests.
calm mind, allowing you to stay composed when negotiating the sale to provide the best possible outcome for all parties involved.
outgoing, with a confidence personality what is able to bring life to the process of bid calling.

In NSW you can register as an accredited auctioneer with Fair Trading and work as a professional auctioneer in a real estate agency. Your competence as an auctioneer is grounded in your formal qualification. Assistant Agent certificate holders note: Completing this course will satisfy your annual CPD requirements.
