Why you need an App

With portal giants such as Rightmove and Zoopla it might seem like there’s no need for your own app. Why should you spend the cash on your own app when you can piggyback on the success of these well established brands? While these portals are fantastic tools, an over-reliance could be detrimental to your business.

As an independent chain you should celebrate what makes you stand out from the crowd, Independence!

Mobile is the most popular way to browse the internet today

It’s no secret that today people spend most of their time on their phones. Whether it’s on social networks or just racking up points with the latest time-killer, people spend all of their time scrolling though pages of apps. With the mobile market exploding with potential why would you not want your business represented there? Having an app makes your services available 24 hours a day, serving as an up-to-date and reliable source of information.

The big players

As we’ve mentioned above, Rightmove and Zoopla are going to be great for advertising your properties to a country-wide audience. Do you know who else is making the most out of the 2 most well established portal sites? EVERYONE! As well as your properties being displayed on these sites, you will have compete with everyone else who has uploaded a property in your area. Your potential clients are given the opportunity to browse your competitors and might even find a property before coming across one of your listings.

With your own app, you have the opportunity to engage your clients on a personal basis, with your properties, your branding and free from any competitor activity.

Staying ahead of the competition

With ever growing numbers of estate agents publishing their own agencies app it’ll be easy to get left behind. Your own app will really set you apart from your competitors who have yet to see an opening in this high-tech market. The companies we currently see thriving are the ones who embrace technology keeping every possible communication channel with their clients open.
