The 2011 South African E-Commerce Awards Top 20
Private Property
Whether looking to buy or rent a property Private Property’s website is easy to use and the search results are accurate. Response to inquiries from agents and private sellers is quick. We love Private Property’s mobile site where you can search properties and contact sellers. A contender that understands where the E-Commerce industry is heading. Congratulations to Private Property for being the 1st Runner Up in the Best E-Commerce Services Website award in the 2011 South African E-Commerce Awards. What we liked: When searching through potential properties, not only can you view pictures but many of them have virtual tours, giving you an ever better idea of the property and whether you would be interested in it. Search results are accurate so you don’t have to sift through loads of properties that don’t meet your criteria. What we didn’t like: We would like to see some public ratings of properties and property recommendations.
