Listings and broker pages
Listings are public adverts published by brokers, developers, owners and property sites. We show a summary and link to the original advert. Company pages are built from those public listings and show company information only. Contact details, logos and agent names appear only after the company is verified and has asked us to publish them, with each agent's agreement.
Services we use
Our website host stores the site and receives form submissions. An email service sends verification codes. Our code host stores the published broker profiles. These providers process data only to run the service for us.
