Press Release Body = Higher Ground, a Leeds-based software development team, has launched a free, UK wide online service. SimpleLets.co.uk is enabling tenants to contact prospective landlords directly, helping to eliminate advertising and additional costs. Technical Project Manager, Paul Campbell says: "The main aim of the site is to offer a free, easy way to advertise and find rental properties online, while utilising new technologies to enrich the user experience."
The service is completely free, and landlords can list as many properties as they wish - tenants simply browse the easy-to-use website and contact the landlords directly. Property adverts can be activated and deactivated as necessary, making it easy for landlords and agents to manage online advertising for their entire portfolio of properties.
The service makes use of cutting edge technologies - the houses are viewable on interactive maps powered by the new "Google Maps" system and searches are available as RSS feeds, so you can receive details of new houses as they become available. The Team is dedicated to the constant improvement of SimpleLets, with plans to introduce further features, detailing local features such as train stations alongside property listings.
Andrew Woods, a member of the development team, says "Our team all share an admiration for free online services like Google and we wanted to add to the growing number of free products available to the online community."
