Hi guys, 
I'm a new landlord and need help with listing my property on as many online agents websites as possible. Doing it privately, but interest is very low currently... Can you please share/recommend any decent websites please? (i know these two: Openrent.co and propertyloop.co.uk) many thanks!

    Think they want to do it privately, not through an agent. Don't think you can get on Rightmove or Zoopla without going through an agent.

    Openrent advertise on Rightmove so you can still get your property on there without an agent

    Most properties rent out very quickly so you need to identify what is putting people off. It basically comes down to cost, presentation and location.

    Agreed.  There must be a reason there is so little interest, even given covid.  People are still renting and moving.
