DESCRIPTION
Since 2008 Zoopla has continuously grown to become one of the UK’s leading and most recognised Consumer brands. Touching most of the country’s adult population, Zoopla has transformed the property portal landscape with the introduction of a highly differentiated proposition to empower consumers to make smarter property decisions. Zoopla works from the vantage point of over 90% brand recognition, 55 million website visits per month, 70% coverage of UK residential listings, owning the market-leading property valuation technology, and nearly 50% penetration of UK Estate Agencies’ CRM software.
Zoopla’s objective is to become the UK’s premier property destination for consumers and the preferred partner for real-estate professionals. In 2018 Zoopla was acquired by SilverLake and there has since followed a period of sustained investment, growth and transformation in order to meet this objective.
