Our take
Rightmove connects the largest and most engaged property audience in the UK with the largest inventory of properties. To sustain business growth, Rightmove is constantly adding new features and tools to its website and app to set itself apart and provide home hunters with the best possible experience when it comes to searching properties.
Rightmove's main priority is becoming the place that home hunters turn to first and engage with most during their home-moving journey. As part of this initiative, the company updated its platform in 2020 to include integrated video content and property images alongside floorplans. This increased the average time users spent looking at each property listing by 70%.
Today, Rightmove has grown to become the UK’s largest online property marketplace and is one of the most popular internet destinations for Britons who collectively spent over a million days on its website in 2022. While current market volatility has led to a cooling off in the housing sector, Rightmove is confident in its ability to ride out this choppy period without incurring additional business costs.
