Prime Location Properties Review:
British obsession with property has meant that sites such as Zoopla, RightMove, Prime Location Properties and more have grown very large to cater for the British appreciation of their home and their neighbourhood. This is because most people that are just curious about their property prices and want to check out what is around go to these sites to find out the latest new properties in their area or checkout the prices on the ForSale signs they see driving around. The most popular and comprehensive property for sale and to rent site in the UK is Right move and has also got an iPhone app. Please note that we are not associated with Zoopla and if you wish to link directly then please click here.

RightMove and Zoopla and PrimeLocation:
Rightmove (Right-Move Properties) , Zoopla (Zoopla.co.uk) and PrimeLocation.co.uk at the moment is the clear market leader with more users, more advertising members and more properties than any other UK property website. www.right move.co.uk used to be no one, however, now probably shares the no one ranking it with Zoopla and therefore advertisers are property professionals such as estate agents, letting (rental) agents, new homes developers and overseas agents who offer properties abroad for UK-based home hunters now have to advertise on both. PrimeLocation has loyal following and although is third in the list - is a force and if an estate agent wants maximum reach - they also have to advertise with PrimeLocation.
