We’re delighted to share details around our Smarter Search: tools designed to make finding the right home simpler for buyers and renters.
Enhanced Draw-A-Search: Smarter Tools for Property Seekers
*Enhanced! A more flexible Draw-a-Search tool that:
- Is available directly from the main search bar
- Lets buyers expand predefined zones or drawn areas by distance
Buyers can explore beyond rigid boundaries, opening up more suitable options.
New Homes: All Eyes on New Builds
Buyers can filter for new builds directly from the search bar.
Buyers can instantly focus on developments that meet their needs, cutting through the noise of second-hand listings.
Smart Search Engine: Natural Language, Real Results
*New! Our AI-powered search engine understands how people actually search. Queries like “3-bed house with garden under £300k” now deliver tailored results.
Searching now feels natural, intuitive, and less frustrating.
Travel Time Search: Search by Lifestyle, Not Just Location
Buyers can filter properties based on:
- Their workplace or chosen destination
- Preferred transport mode (car, bus, train — even ferries!)
- Maximum travel time
- *New! Arrival time, with journey calculations that account for real-world conditions like rush hour traffic and public transport timetables
Buyers don’t just see how long a journey takes in theory; they see how long it will take when it matters, like getting to work for 9am. That means no surprises, and homes that genuinely fit their lifestyle.
Smarter Search = Smarter Results
Each of these tools empowers buyers and renters to search with confidence and clarity.
- More relevant results.
- Homes that truly match your lifestyle.
- A faster, smarter way to find your perfect place.
All powered by PropertyPal.
