Which Online Estate agent is better? Is 99home providing Estate Agency service at your doorsteps?

99Home or Other agents, same price but what service and support you get when you list your biggest asset. 99home is an online estate, letting, management and property auction agent vs Other agents is only an online estate agent.

That’s probably much to do with the low-cost option of just £99 to sell your home. If you want the ‘full’ estate agency service you’ll need to spend closer to £500, which is still good value. Just be prepared for the fact there are a lot of packages and options to get your head around so it can be confusing.

Let’s have a look the what services both are offering.

99home launched in July 2017 while Other agents started in 2016. Both company based in North London. 99home have got two more offices. Sutton and Birmingham.

Property Listing:

99home market properties on Rightmove, Zoopla and PrimeLocation where Other agents market property only on Rightmove, Zoopla and Prive location.99home allows vendors and landlords to list properties for free on the 99home website where they don’t have this option with Other agents.

99home has got more packages to suit all types of sellers such as £99 Standard package, “Do It Yourself property package” which is ideal for those vendors want to sell their property directly. This package required some set of skills where a vendor has to performs all the activities such as photo, floorplanning, viewing, etc. Other agents got a similar package with almost some sort of service.

99home £499 Combo package is a teamwork package where 99home does all the work and vendor to host the viewings only. 99home offers one week free Rightmove Featured listing with this package.

Free property valuation and advert

99home offers a free desktop (sales expert prepares a property valuation report) as well as online valuation and free property listing services which you can use for a “Try before you buy” service and upgrade later if you are satisfied with your ad. You can list your property 100% free on the 99home website if you wish. We are unsure if Other agents provide desktop valuation or not, but yes, they do provide online valuations. It seems like Other agents does not have free property listing options on their website.

Best customer service, support, and reviews

Customer service is the backbone for any business. People say the best quality and service comes with only expensive products and services. Here, 99home and Other agents both proved this wrong.
Both companies provide better service than lots of other high street agents as well as hybrid/online estate agents.
Nevertheless, 99home is leading this front and is undoubtedly the UK’s number one Online Estate Agent with 5/5 trust rating on Trustpilot as well as AllAgent. While Other agents has a 4.7/5 trust score on Trustpilot and 4.2/5 on AllAgent.
