Why you should use a Zoopla agent

When it comes to selling your home, you’ll want to choose the best representative for the job. Here’s why a Zoopla estate agent is your best bet.

Words by: Laura Howard

Before you enlist the services of an estate agent to sell or rent your home, here are five reasons why you should check they are on Zoopla.

1. A famous brand

Using an estate agent who has signed up to Zoopla means your property will be listed for sale on Zoopla too.

And Zoopla is famous. In fact, we rank at 95% for brand awareness. It's the highest score of all the property portals and means millions of property buyers visit us every month.

2. A huge ‘shop window’ on a busy street

Zoopla attracts more than 55m visits a month – many of which are from people in the market and ready to buy.  

Your property will be matched with buyers’ exact search criteria – two-bedroom flat in Woking for a maximum £350,000, for example – so you know each person who lands on your property listing will be a credible potential buyer.

Zoopla’s app has also been downloaded more than 11m times which means that, even when people are on the move, they’ve got access to your property details via their smart phones.

3. Extra power with partner sites

Once it’s on Zoopla, your property will also be marketed across a range of partner sites including Zoopla-owned PrimeLocation, targeted at the more affluent buyer.

And millions of visitors to the MailOnline, The Times and The Telegraph, make use of Zoopla's property search tool that is displayed on each of the websites.

4. Free home valuations

It's easy to get a local estate agent round to value your home.

Just find your address in the drop down menu on Zoopla's valuations page and select the agent/s you want to value your home.

You don't even have to be selling or renting – there's a 'just curious' option. And, best of all, it's free.

5. Help for the agent to do their best job

Zoopla agents are kept informed with market insights powered by our data company Hometrack – for example, average price reductions or length of time it takes to sell in your area.

Armed with this knowledge, a Zoopla estate agent will be in prime position to price your home accurately and get it sold as soon as possible.
