History and Background of the .PROPERTY Domain

The .PROPERTY domain extension was delegated in the mid-2010s as part of ICANN's new generic top-level domain program. Delegation refers to the point when a domain extension is officially added to the global domain name system and becomes technically active. It was introduced for property-related services and real estate websites.

After delegation, the extension typically went through standard launch phases, including a sunrise period (which allows trademark holders to register names first) before becoming available to the general public. Today, .PROPERTY is commonly used for real estate marketing, listings, and property services.

Why you might not choose .PROPERTY

While .PROPERTY is straightforward, there are a few considerations:
  • General meaning: It may feel less specific than extensions like .HOMES or .LAND.
  • Recognition: Less familiar than widely used extensions.
  • Brand fit: Not ideal for non-property businesses.
  • User habits: Some visitors may still assume .COM.

Because of these factors, Website.com currently focuses on proven, widely recognized extensions such as .COM, .NET, and .ORG that deliver consistency, affordability, and broad recognition. .PROPERTY domains are not currently available for registration through Website.com.
