‘It’s great to see OnTheMarket.com challenging the duopoly of Rightmove and Zoopla’, says Partner at Strutt & Parker

February 17, 2016

Michael Fiddes, Partner at Strutt & Parker and a Non-Executive Board Director of Agents’ Mutual, comments on the growth of OnTheMarket.com over the past 12 months:

Michael Fiddes, Partner at Strutt & Parker, said: “From a standing start at the beginning of 2015, OnTheMarket.com has come a tremendously long way over the past 12 months. We constantly receive good feedback from our customers who really like its uncluttered, clean design and fresh approach. Its functionality is quick and easy-to-use and people find it a joy to navigate without being bombarded by adverts like they are on other property search sites. The leads that come through tend to be of a very high standard from those that are serious about buying.

“We are looking forward to seeing OnTheMarket.com continue its fantastic growth story throughout 2016. It’s an exciting time as we see more and more members joining up and expanding the already broad inventory of property available to view on the site. It’s great to see the portal challenging the duopoly of Rightmove and Zoopla and giving consumers more choice.”
