The numbers speak for themselves!

Private Property invests a lot into researching consumers’ impressions of our products and you’ll see below how well our new site is working compared with the old.

Perhaps most interesting of all is the fact that we’re now getting more weekend “hits” than ever before. In fact, these browsing numbers top those for during the week. So when you get new listings, make sure you advertise them by Friday to get the most bang for your buck.

Here are some more facts on our new improved site …
