Newly-launched property agency plans to recruit across South East

A new agency specialising in the property sales market has unveiled plans to launch in the South East with a prime-time TV advertisement on Granada Meridian.

YOPA has embraced the Airbnb ‘model’ and plans to recruit 20 experienced experts across the South including in Sussex, Kent and Surrey.

The platform lists properties for sale on leading online property portals Rightmove, Zoopla and PrimeLocation with the aim of saving thousands of pounds compared with a high street agent. The company charges a flat rate fee of £780 and provides an estate agency service that works entirely around the customer.

YOPA’s advertisement will be shown for the next six weeks across the Granada Meridian region during prime-time slots including the Rugby World Cup, X Factor and Downton Abbey.

YOPA CEO Daniel Attia said: “We know that people across the South want to get the best possible price for their property, are looking for a 24/7 estate agent with the latest technology and they’re fed up of being ripped off by excessive estate agent fees.

“Now vendors can spend the money we save them on something else – like a holiday, a new car or smart furniture for their new home.

“Our winning combination of online property consultants and easy-to-use web property marketing platform frees our local experts to accurately value your property, create quality details and negotiate the best price for you.

“The days of the old-fashioned high street estate agent that closes at 5pm are firmly over. We can offer a slicker, faster, more efficient service with the customer at the heart of everything we do.”

Daniel added: “We want to revolutionise the estate agent industry with our disruptive technology in the same way companies like Uber and Airbnb are transforming the taxi and hotel industries.”
