Stock and Station Agent course

If you love country life and want to sell real estate, livestock and chattels on behalf of farmers and graziers, then the stock and station agent course is for you.

You can obtain this qualification in one of the following two ways:

  • Register in the Dual CPP41419 Certificate IV in Real Estate Practice (Stock and Station).
  • If you already have a CPP41419 Certificate IV in Real Estate Practice, or equivalent, register to complete the five units in the stock and station elective unit cluster.

Both these pathways qualify you to apply for a Stock and Station Agent’s Licence from NSW Fair Trading.

Stock and station agents provide timely and relevant advice to clients concerning the sale and purchase of rural property, livestock, crops and agricultural products and services. In some instances, the agent might even act on their behalf. The day-to-day life of a stock and station agent includes:

  • In-depth consultation with vendors to set reserve prices on products.
  • Asking for and potentially setting opening bids for auctions.
  • Accepting suitable bids from potential buyers and closing sales to the highest bidders on behalf of clients.
  • Assist in selling agricultural supplies, including grains, sprays, seed, feed, dips, drenches and veterinary products.
  • Appraisals and listing of property for upcoming auctions.
  • Act in line with state and federal regulatory requirements.
  • Organising and distributing advertising, catalogues, and other publicity for auctions.
  • Purchase and sell necessary livestock and rural property on behalf of their clients.
