A comparison of online agents, found that The Little House Company that has been named as the UK's leading online estate agency. This is despite the huge backing made by Tescos of its estate agency arm iSold

Whilst Tesco may dominate the retail sector in the UK, its foray into the online estate agency market is yet to pay dividends. That’s the result of a new report into online property sales websites which has found that iSold, the Spicerhaart venture backed by Tesco, fails to appear in the top six sites online estate agents, ranked by quality of website.

Instead, it is the hugely popular and successful The Little House Company that has been named as the UK’s leading online estate agency. Established ten years ago as a‘private sales’ site, The Little House Company has blossomed into one of the most important players in Britain’s online property sales market.

The report from The Big Property List undertook a comparison of online agents, looking at their services, prices, year established and the popularity and quality of their websites.

Nick Marr, Director of The Little House Company, newly crowned as the UK’s leading online estate agency, said: “Obviously, we are delighted that we came top of this extensive report into the UK’s online property market. We took the decision some time ago to change from being a private property sales website into an online estate agency and this has reaped dividends for both us and our army of satisfied customers.”

James Cole, the author of the report, said that one of the main reasons for The Little House Company’s success was that they had developed ‘strong strategies for driving buyers to their website.’

Agents can list with The Little House Company for less than £50 per month. The site brings agents a niche audience away from the estate agent only website and some agents have attracted vendors simply by listing on The Little House Company website.

Mr Marr, himself National Federation of Property Professionals qualified, added: “The Little House Company has been online since 2000 and is one of the UK's most established online estate agencies and private house sale websites. Our services give consumers a choice in the way they decide to sell their homes online and we are thrilled that our innovative and affordable estate agency services have been recognized as the UK’s best.”
