More buyers will be able to book property viewings online as national and regional house builders sign up with Viewings Direct. Gleeson and Kier are just two of the latest names to sign up for the new, automated system which is free to set up and only charges for booked viewings. The online viewing button can also be added free of charge to property listings on Smart New Homes, the dedicated new homes portal. “Interest in this new, automated online viewing booking facility is at an all time high as buyers are expecting to book everything from restaurant tables to shopping delivery online,” says Viewings Direct managing director, Nicola Goldsmith. “Being able to book viewings online makes sense for busy home buyers who want the convenience of booking an appointment when and where it suits them. Now houses builders and agents never miss a sale because they are closed, short-staffed or fail to deal with internet enquiries effectively,” Goldsmith adds. The online booking facility integrates easily with websites with minimal technical input. The source of the viewing is also identified. “As the viewing button can be featured on a wide range of websites as well as in email marketing campaigns, it is important that clients can monitor the effectiveness of their online marketing activities,” added Goldsmith.
