Industry-first Property Sense launches Place 3D to enhance its in-house capabilities

Stockport-based estate and letting agent disruptor, Property Sense, has launched a new proptech sister company called Place 3D. Which will unveil new proptech capabilities to the UK market, allowing clients to experience high-specification 3D visuals before a single brick has been laid. The technology also highlights live availability post-construction, allowing prospective residents to enjoy a seamless user journey during the lease-up/sales period.

It is a unique proposition that significantly enhances Property Sense’s block lettings capabilities and has already impacted the lease-up period at The Interchange development in Stockport. By creating an end-to-end property marketing solution that can be leveraged months before a development has been built, Place 3D can support developers of any size with rapid sales and/or lease-up periods, pre-and post-construction.

The platform can be accessed anytime and on any digital device, with no specialist skills required, offering an end-to-end promotional solution for the rapidly expanding BTR marketplace. Mike HaywoodCEO of Property Sense, said: “Without question, the BTR market is booming right now, with developers feeling the pressure to build more. We realised there was a gap in the market for high-quality, high impact proptech, that integrates seamlessly with our already powerful CRM and robust lettings processes.

“This is a game-changing offering for developers. Not only does it allow developers to generate significant, qualified demand months before building completion, but it also allows them to benefit from rapid lease-up periods never seen before in the UK.”

Committed to redefining industry standards for sales, lettings, and property management, Property Sense Estate and Lettings Agents, launched in April 2024 proving there is another way. It is the UK’s only estate and letting agent who pays UK homeowners to sell their home and offer fully funded property maintenance and repairs with market-leading guaranteed rent. The market redefining estate agency employs twelve staff across its Headquarter office at 1 Exchange Street, Stockport.
