The new website brings together over half a million of the latest property for sale and to rent listings from the top property portals in one place. It also adds fast, filtered search and useful house price statistics.
But the real sizzle is called Friend Map, report Adzuna. This unique tool, based on the Facebook API, lets users see a map of where their friends live and check-in, and ask them questions about the area. Once the user has chosen an area, the property listings are just one click away. Adzuna’s tool is the first to plot friends’ whereabouts as part of the house hunting process. It is quite literally a new way to find property.
Doug Monro, Co-Founder of Adzuna, commented:
“We’re really excited about launching in property and proud of the Friend Map feature. Our research shows that it particularly appeals to young professionals in major cities who have a choice of where to live. Seeing your Friend Map for the first time has a real wow factor and it’s surprising what you learn about your friends.”
Adzuna aims to become the world’s leading search engine for classifieds, by bringing together all the ads and connecting users with them in new ways.
