Google Street View on FindaProperty.com – A Positive Response From Our Users

In March 2009, FindaProperty.com was one of the launch partners for Google Street View in the UK.

In order to gauge customers’ reactions to the Street View tool, FindaProperty.com surveyed a consumer panel to see how important it was to their online property searching process.

The results showed that over 60% of FindaProperty.com visitors had used the Street View tool. Of those, a very significant 81% believed it was an ‘important’ or ‘very important’ tool to use when buying or selling a home, with 72% saying the same when it came to renting or letting.

In addition, almost two-thirds (64%) of respondents agreed or strongly agreed that it was a great tool for online house hunters.

Accessing Street View on FindaProperty.com is straightforward. On the right hand side of the property description page, there is a Show Street View option in areas where the facility is available.
