Last year, 400,000 subscribers from our homeowner audience listed their homes for sale. This represents a 37% increase compared to 2024 and accounts for £2bn in sales commission value for our agent partners. 

This growth demonstrates the success of our focus on building a high-value homeowner audience to drive greater value for your business.

We’re continually engaging this audience with new tools and insights to help them better understand the value of their home, local market trends and buyer demand. These are all important factors in making home decisions, particularly in current market conditions as increased supply places greater emphasis on realistic pricing.

Rich Hayes, Chief Operating Officer at Zoopla, said: “We are investing to help agents grow their businesses with a focus on driving tangible return on investment through high-quality homeowners, market-leading products, and unique data and insights. 

“Growing the number of high-quality sales instructions is a key pillar in our strategy. Zoopla is the UK’s leading destination for home valuation, with 67% of consumers choosing us first when valuing their home. It’s fantastic to see this strength translate into 400,000 educated sellers going on to list their properties last year. 

“As we continue to innovate at pace, we’re confident that this audience of five million homeowners will continue to grow in both size and quality which in turn will generate further value for our agent partners in 2026.”

Most popular feature: 1 in 4 homeowners use our buyer demand tool every month

The buyer demand tool is one of the most popular homeowner features on Zoopla, and it’s a first in the UK market.

The tool helps would-be sellers understand the number of searches that their home would appear in at different price levels, as well as the level of the competition for similarly-priced homes. 

It’s designed to instil the confidence to proceed with a sale, while also making homeowners more aware of the link between pricing and interest before they speak to an agent.

And it’s proving its value in regularly bringing homeowners back to Zoopla, with more than 1 in 4 homeowners using the tool on a monthly basis.

You might find the tool useful when you’re pitching in the living room to emphasise the impact of pricing on demand and speed of sale.

Track your home on Zoopla to try out the demand tool for yourself.

Latest innovation: Post-listing performance report

Our latest feature for our homeowner audience is a ‘post-listing performance’ report, which truly cements Zoopla as the most comprehensive homeowner destination in the UK.

The report tracks listing views and search appearances in real-time and highlights how a seller’s price compares to similar properties. 

It’s available exclusively to those whose home is listed for sale on Zoopla, giving a unique and compelling reason to book a valuation with a Zoopla-partnered agent.
