Rate my startup: 200 Square (100% online real estate agency in NZ)

Our new startup is called 200 Square, and we're trying to change the way real estate is sold in New Zealand.

200square.co.nz

Basically, we manage the whole process online - you list your house for sale, order marketing and even negotiate with potential buyers all online. The legal environment here means you can even digitally "sign" agreements using a credit card!

There's no human "agent" in the process - 200 Square manages it all, although you can get in touch with someone for help if you need it. We also charge a fixed "success fee" instead of the usual commission paid to an agent (2% - 4% of the sale price here, depending on a number of things).

I'm really interested in what you guys think of the concept, and the home/info pages - we are trying to explain a complicated process as concisely and simply as possible.

Appreciate anything you might suggest however!
