UK portal zoopla.co.uk has just announced the appointment of Chris Browne to the role of head of new homes. The portal has also added new listing sort options and a “listing history” information box to property pages.
Browne’s most recent role was sales director for smartnewhomes.com. His experience also includes over twenty years in the the estate agency and new home developer sectors.
At zoopla.co.uk, Browne will be responsible for overseeing the growth of the portal’s new homes channel and managing the new homes sales team. His responsibilities will include developing and managing major client relationships as well as implementing new products and features.
“We have one of the largest and fastest growing audiences in the UK and offer a compelling and innovative proposition for our advertisers to reach a unique audience,” Browne comments.
“Online marketing is not only an essential tool for developers but is by far the most efficient source of leads and enquiries and zoopla.co.uk is focussed on being the most efficient marketing partner for our developer clients.”
Meanwhile, zoopla.co.uk has announced a few new features for users. The first is the option to sort listing results to find the most reduced properties, showing the date of the reduction and the percentage of the listing price.
A “most popular” sort option has also been added, showing the properties that are attracting the most attention.
Along with these options, zoopla.co.uk has added a listing history information box to property pages. These show the first listing date and price for a property, along with subsequent price changes and page view tallies.
Earlier this month, zoopla.co.uk released its iPhone app, which offers instant value estimates for 27 million homes via an Augmented Reality display.
