Free property listings for UK homeowners

What a free listing includes

• A permanent public listing page with its own address, sharable on any platform.
• Up to 15 photographs and a full written description.
• Complete property details: price, type, bedrooms, bathrooms, tenure, council tax band and key features.
• Automatic matching into the swipe feeds of buyers whose saved requirements fit your home.
• Inclusion in local for-sale and house price pages for your town and postcode district.
• A seller dashboard showing views, saves, swipe activity and enquiries.
• Direct enquiries from buyers, with no call centre in between.

What you need before you start

You can build a listing in one sitting if you gather a few things first: your asking price, the bedroom and bathroom counts, tenure and lease details if leasehold, council tax band, and your EPC rating. Photographs are the part most people underestimate, so set aside an hour on a bright day rather than shooting on the way out of the door.

The listing wizard saves as you go, so a half-finished listing is never lost. Nothing is visible to buyers until you choose to publish, and you can go back and edit any field afterwards.

How matching decides who sees your property

Buyers on HausMart do not just type a postcode. They set a search area, a budget range, a minimum bedroom count, property types they will consider, and lifestyle places they care about — a workplace, a school, a station, a relative's address. Every live listing is scored against that brief and the closest matches appear first.

This is why completeness matters more here than on a conventional portal. A listing missing its bathroom count or tenure cannot be confirmed as a match for a buyer who specified those things, so it appears further down or not at all. Filling in every field is the cheapest improvement available to a free listing.

Photographs, floor space and presentation

Fifteen photographs is enough to cover a typical three or four bedroom home properly: an exterior, the main living space from two angles, kitchen, dining area, each bedroom, each bathroom, the garden and any parking or garage. Lead with the strongest interior shot rather than the front door.

If you have a floor plan, add it. Buyers use floor plans to rule properties in as much as out, and a listing with a plan typically holds attention longer than one without. Where a photographer would help, HausMart lists local property photographers who quote directly.

Free listings for estate agents and private sellers

HausMart is a marketplace rather than an agency, so private sellers and estate agents publish side by side. Agents keep their branding on every listing and can manage stock from an office account, while private sellers manage a single property from the same dashboard. Buyers see the same matching data either way.

Whichever route you use, the legal transfer is handled by a regulated solicitor or licensed conveyancer that you instruct, and any mortgage or protection advice comes from an authorised firm. HausMart provides the listing, the matching and the demand data — not the regulated services around them.

Keeping a listing working

• Refresh photographs seasonally if the property has been live for a long period.
• Review the price against new sold prices in your postcode district every few weeks.
• Answer enquiries the same day where you can; matched buyers are usually actively viewing.
• Use the demand data in your dashboard to decide between a price adjustment and better presentation.
• Mark the property under offer or sold so buyer feeds stay accurate.
