Domain Group (or simply Domain) is an Australian digital property portal and associated real-estate industry business. The company was founded by Fairfax Media, when the publisher branded their real-estate sections in print with the Domain brand and first established an online presence in 1999.
The company was a wholly owned subsidiary of Fairfax until November 2017, when Domain was listed on the Australian Stock Exchange as a public company, although Fairfax Media (now Nine) retained a 60% ownership of shares.
The Domain Group is best known for its real-estate portal domain.com.au, which is Australia’s second largest real-estate marketing business with 90% market penetration. It competes directly with market leader REA Group, which is majority-owned by Nine rival News Corp Australia.
In June 2018, Domain Group were announced as platinum partner of the Australian Men’s Cricket Team. Under the deal, Domain will be the presenting partner of men’s Test cricket over four years, which includes the next Ashes to be hosted in Australia, and will become the official real estate partner of Cricket Australia.
