Zoopla - Why don't my Under Offer properties show?

Are you struggling to list your Under Offer properties to the Zoopla portal? Please see the below explanation from Adam Day on why this is.

Unfortunately we are not able to allow you to mark properties as SSTC on Zoopla. This is a directive from Adam Day at eXp and the reasons are as follows:

Portals charge eXp per ‘block’ of properties.

However, Rightmove charge eXp per block of ‘For Sale’ property, whereas Zoopla charge eXp per block of properties regardless of whether that property is For Sale or SSTC, which essentially doubles our bill with Zoopla compared to if they just charged the way as RM. eXp have tried to negotiate with Zoopla but this is something they apparently will not budge on.

As a result, over the last 3-4 years, eXp have been manually removing sold properties from Zoopla to reduce the monthly invoice - this has been communicated a number of times on Workplace over the years.

However, this work obviously becomes more involved and requires more staff as eXp grow, so eXp asked us to develop something where SSTC properties are automatically removed from Zoopla so as to make their operation as efficient as possible, and this went live over the last few days.

As mentioned, eXp have been doing this manually over the years, so there’s is no real change to how the properties are advertised on Zoopla - it has just become automated now.

I hope that helps explain things, please reach out directly to eXp HQ if you wish to discuss this further.
