For our own free property listing UK service we believe that confidentiality is key when advertising with us. This applies whether you add a property wanted listing or if you are listing UK property for sale or to rent.
I’m sure you, like us, have countless SPAM emails that you constantly have to sifted out of your inbox and into the trash. Some days it can be quite tiresome removing this unwanted email traffic. When we came up with the our property listing website idea we took this into consideration. It should only take a matter of minutes to upload your free property listing with us. However, it will not be added to the website until it has been verified. This enables us to filter out potential SPAM property adverts. This approach is exactly the same once your property listing has been verified and added to our website. So should someone be interested in your property advert, they too have to go through the same verification process.
There are plenty of services available where you can upload your own property listing without the use of estate agents. However, they will vary greatly. Our own service is essentially a teaser property advert, similar to those displayed in newspapers, the difference being your details remain confidential on the website. Therefore, you should not receive unsolicited emails or phone calls. Only when you are willing to receive property enquiries can details be exchanged between the two parties. This way we believe there is mimimal effort in listing a property advert with us and it’s a great way to test the market. Not to mention, we do not charge an upfront fee for property adverts, only for qualified property enquiries that have been verified.
Therefore you should do your research before selecting which website to list your UK property with. Your property listing criteria should be more than which is the cheapest service; as the saying goes there is no such thing as a free lunch! Website forms, like those we use, are currently one of the best ways to combat SPAM. Thus we have ensured our customers are always our first thought when developing our site.

The phrasea picture paints a thousand words is very apt when it comes to property listingswhether you are selling or lettting in the UK.
Have you searched the web for property wanted either to purchase or rent? If so, you will notice not only the different property adverts, but also some are without pictures. I’m not sure about you, but we like to see property photos. Even if there are only a few available it helps to create the vision. Is the property of interest? Could you see yourself living there? Not only that, but more importantly it gets the imagination going. What’s the area like? What would you do to the property if you were the owner? These questions and many more will no doubt aid your decision as to whether you want to contact the vendor and take a look at the property on offer. The approach is the same whether you are looking for rented accommodation or a new home. So why do some property adverts not contain pictures? Have they had trouble adding them? Perhaps the thought was to test the market first.
There are a variety of websites where you can sell or let your UK property privately. Most, if not all, like our own service give you the opportunity to upload photos of property you want to list for sale or let. Like a business you are competing for customers; so you need to give them every opportunity of showing an interest in your property advert. A picture really does paint a thousand words, so if you are considering listing your property online ensure you have up to date photos to upload.

It’s certainly been interesting reading over the last week; the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) are now looking to promote online UK Property Listing services in a bid to drive down the cost of Selling or Letting your home.
Those who are savvy in their search for UK property listings know that there are viable alternatives to the traditionalist ‘list your property with the Estate Agent’ approach. Statistics continue to point towards the fact we spend more time searching UK property adverts and listings online regardless as to whether you want to buy or rent property. Therefore, given the recent OFT comments, there is a huge opportunity for alternative property listing services to not only enter the marketplace, but contribute to the goal of reducing the cost of selling or letting your property in the UK.
It’s a refreshing approach by the OFT. The momentum now has to be with those new property services that look to serve the UK property market consumers. However, such property listing opportunities need to be grasped now. There is no doubt that selling or renting a UK property online is convenient and can be hassle free.
In addition to the huge audience of excellent prospective clients, the Internet offers cost effectiveness that traditional media cannot. Websites are more engaging and informative than even the best printed brochures. Emails and the use of social networking sites make it easier and cheaper to keep in touch with existing clients. You don’t need to have a big marketing budget to create a professional online presence. Estate agents themselves already have an online presence. What will be interesting is whether the cost of selling or letting property in the UK does come down and if those new property listing websites can break the mould and become true competitors.

Many of those looking to rent a flat or house in the UK opt to begin their search online. Even with the fall in UK house prices due to the recent credit crunch the UK is still pricing the number of first time buyers out of the property marketplace.
It’s not only first time UK buyers who are struggling to find the high deposits being asked for by mortgage companies. Those people who are looking to make the move up the UK property ladder may need to find additional funds to cover any reduced equity for a deposit on their next property. Due to the buoyant UK rental market many letting agents are witnessing the increasing demand with more property available to rent now appearing on their books. Investors who buy property to rent out in the UK continue to use specialist letting agents. Not only are the UK property portfolios of letting agents growing; so is the demand to rent property in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Property management on behalf of UK investors is another add on that is seen as a valuable offering by the agents.
The jury is still out as to whether 2010 will see a resurgence in demand to purchase UK buy to let property. UK residential property landlords who have the time to vet potential tenants should also consider the option of bypassing letting agents. There are Free Property Listing services in the UK that are bridging the gap amid private property landlords and tenants. It’s a simple process to set up your own property adverts. If you have UK residential property to rent then the option of using an online free property listing service could potentially save you money in tenant finder fees.

2009 was the year to forget given the Credit Crisis and the downturn in the UK economy. The optimists amongst us are predicting a better 2010. Whilst we are far from coming out of the woods yet, recent results and statistics suggest we are heading in the right direction.
So has 2009 had any lasting effects on the UK property market? Well, it’s more apparent that we all value our money that much more. Whilst in the past during the UK property boom years there wasn’t a second thought before placing properties with Estate Agents to attract would be property purchasers or renters. However, will 2010 see a much different approach? Are we more careful now about the cost of goods and services we use, Estate Agents included?
There are viable alternatives to the traditionalist ‘list your property with the Estate Agent’ approach. Statistics point towards the fact we spend more time searching UK property adverts online regardless as to whether you want to buy or rent property. So consideration should be given to a Free Property Listing approach. There are some fantastic, hassle free, online UK private property websites that offer such services. They are not estate agents, but property lead referral services putting UK property sellers and landlords in touch with people who are looking for property wantedto buy and rent and vice versa. Such sites in most cases give you the opportunity to test the market.
Whilst the Do It Yourself property advert may not be considered by all; the fact that you can save a considerable amount of money in Estate Agent fees should mean it is at least given a second thought. Such property listing sites should be seen as credible alternatives offering a simple service that should prove popular easing the hassle of buying, selling, letting and renting property.
