STRIKE IT RICH with the School content on the new website

The recent widely publicised strike affected Schools across the country, and it highlighted the issue of offering quality education to our children. We all want to offer our children the best possible jump-start in life. Browsers on the Private Property website will undoubtedly consider schools as part of their next relocation, especially if they have children of school-going age. So, with this in mind we at Private Property are taking the quality of information to a new level by enriching the information on our system that reflects the points of interest – and in this instance SCHOOLS.

We are starting the process of creating a page per school on our system where a browser is able to see some basic information about a school in the suburb in which they are looking to buy or rent, and on the school landing page our system will aggregate property in our database that are either “for sale” or “to rent” within the proximity of that school. In effect, the browser will have the ability to look at property from a perspective of proximity to a school of interest. Isn’t that NEAT!

So, should you know of a school that would be interested to be on this program, please let me know. We're offering the school a free Virtual Tour and Aerial Images of the school, along with a YouTube video clip of the school. You can contact me on barriek@privateproperty.co.za should you know of any schools who want to be part of this initiative. It is a great opportunity for the school to direct potential parents to a database of properties that are on the market within a defined radius of the school.
