Rightmove launches Selling Sunderland with Charlotte Crosby and local agents
Rightmove, the UK’s largest property website, has launched Selling Sunderland, a playful parody of glamorous property TV shows, celebrating Sunderland’s charm and local agent expertise.
The campaign features Sunderland favourite TV personality Charlotte Crosby, who teams up with local agents to showcase the city’s unique appeal. Together, they guide prospective buyers through three distinctive properties, blending expert market insights with Charlotte’s heartfelt enthusiasm for her hometown.
Sunderland is already a popular choice for those in the North East – ranking in the top three locations in the region for prospective buyers searching for their next home – being beaten only by Newcastle and the historic town of Darlington. Yet for those seeking out city life across Great Britain, Sunderland only comes in 38th position in a list of 50 of Great Britain’s biggest cities. This campaign seeks to highlight Sunderland’s potential as a fantastic place to call home.

Rightmove’s Chief Marketing Officer, Matt Bushby, said: “Agents are the cornerstone of the property market. Selling Sunderland celebrates their knowledge and local expertise and the role they play in helping people find the right home for them. By showcasing their work in a light-hearted but impactful way, this campaign not only entertains but also reinforces the critical role of agents in helping people find their next home.”
Michael Hodgson of Michael Hodgson in Sunderland, said: “The Sunderland property market continues to show resilience and opportunity, with strong demand for well-priced homes and steady interest from first-time buyers, families and investors alike. With the city’s ongoing regeneration projects, upcoming film studio developments, stunning seafront, beautiful beaches, and vibrant coastal lifestyle, Sunderland is becoming an increasingly attractive destination.”
Sophie Luhr, Marketing and Property Consultant at Fine & Country, Newcastle and Northumberland, said: “Stabilising interest rates and the city’s ambitious regeneration projects, like the Riverside Project and Crown Works Studio, are set to boost Sunderland’s appeal further this year. With new investments, job creation, and a thriving food scene, the city is becoming a top choice for homeowners and investors alike.”
Helen Wall, Director at Bradley Hall Sunderland, said: “Sunderland’s property market continues to go from strength to strength. From first-time buyers to families and investors, Sunderland offers a wide range of properties to suit all needs and budgets. 2025 is shaping up to be another exciting year for Sunderland and we’re thrilled to see such strong interest in its property market.”
