We’ve exemption for the ‘one other property portal’ rule…. phew!
January 16, 2015
Student property portal receives the all clear from AgentsMutual, they are not ‘one other property portal’ in the eyes of OnTheMarket:
“I can confirm that whilst your focus in on student accommodation, you are exempt from our rule.”

Agents’ Mutual – OnTheMarket.com
StudentCrowd enables letting agents to list all student properties for free. To find out more visit www.studentcrowd.com/advertisers
The exemption from Agents Mutual’s ‘one property portal’ rule came after a number of our customers were contemplating leaving our site out of fear they would break this rule. This could have crippled our fledgling enterprise which relies on income streams from multiple independent letting agents.
(We’d like our story to be known.) – Happy to do that for you via Estate Agent Networking!!!
So, who else has been accepted as not ‘another property portal’ in the eyes of #OnTheMarket??
