HomeViews continues to add new, high-profile developer and operator partners, with visitor numbers on the site soaring by over 400% since 2019.
Increasing numbers of property hunters are turning to property and developer reviews to research and find their next home. Since the lockdown began in March, HomeViews has also seen an increased appetite for collaboration among developers and operators to enhance their presence online. As a result, a number of high-profile companies have been added as new partners on the site in recent months.
Many of the UK’s top developers and operators now partner with HomeViews. As a result, these partners have been able to increase their visibility online, boost accountability and transparency, respond swiftly to reviews and receive detailed reports on resident feedback.
How do partners benefit?
Partner developers with a HomeViews marketing subscription are given more control over their company profile and development pages on the site. Partners also have content rights and full support in using HomeViews content across their marketing channels. This means positive reviews are amplified and any negative reviews can be addressed swiftly.
HomeViews has also added highly successful new partner features to the site in response to demand from site users. These features include the option for adding videos, listings and virtual tours within a development page. Extensive work has also been undertaken to improve the user experience of the site.
As a result of all these improvements, visitors are spending an average of more than 5 minutes on development pages. Bounce rates on the site are also remaining low.

Each Tipi building has its own personality and style and HomeViews gives us resident feedback, ratings and insight into each separate development and how Tipi as a whole is doing. Reports are exceptionally detailed and HomeViews’ marketing tools and support also help us to amplify our overwhelmingly positive reviews and help give prospective residents the confidence to choose the right Tipi home for them.

We’re benefitting immensely from partnering with HomeViews. Thanks to their support we successfully included review content within the marketing of our rental and sales developments at Greenwich Peninsula. Verified resident feedback helps us maintain the highest possible standards across the board and has been a genuine source for when new buyers/tenants are researching their next home. Our HomeViews pages are an invaluable extension of our own marketing channels.
– Keshal Patel, Property Marketing Manager, Greenwich Peninsula
Our incredible scores are a result of the hard work our team puts into supporting each of our residents and helping many through the process of buying their first home. HomeViews has enabled our residents to share their experience of buying with Anthology in their own words and for us to share their stories with prospective customers.
– Steve Bangs, Managing Director, Anthology
Developers are accountable for keeping an open dialogue with their residents to ensure a best in class experience. At Fizzy Living Customer Service is at the core of what we do. We feel proud of what we’ve created for our residents and encourage them to use HomeViews to share insights for future tenants and to make certain we are providing a top quality service. We encourage all other developers to do the same to ensure London’s new build housing opportunities are the best they can be.
