The name is currently listed for sale on domain marketplace website Sedo for £2,999 and potential buyers are invited to make an offer.

Houses.co.uk was a joint-venture between high street agent Russell Bennett of Quirk Deakin in Grays, Essex and his friend, dot com car rental entrepreneur, Peter Thornton.

The website would appear to be still in operation with four properties listed on Rightmove, business partner Russell Bennett confirmed to SellingUp that Houses.co.uk was no longer functioning day-to-day as an online agency, they would however continue to try to sell the properties listed  that had been paid for. It was not clear what would happen to new and current instructions if and when the domain name is sold.
