FAQ - Advertise your properties

How it works

Unlike many other portal websites, we do not charge subscription fees, but opt for a "no cure - no pay" model where you only pay when you receive leads. After adding a advertising budget of € 350,- you can add unlimited properties. In this way, we offer an accessible way to advertise your properties in the Netherlands and Belgium.

Advertising in 4 steps

Step 1: Set budget
Through the page Balance you have the possibility to set a budget. This budget will be used when you receive leads. You also have the option to buy some other products.

Step 2: Set your property
Through the property manager you can easily set properties. For the best results, fill in all the fields and use your professional photos. Automated placement is possible with an XML-feed.

Step 3: Extra promotion
Before you post the property online, you still have the possibility to highlight the property. This can be done by means of a "top property" or a post on the Facebook pages of the Second Home Fair in the Netherlands and Belgium.

Step 4: Receiving leads
Now that your properties are online, there is a good chance that you will receive requests. If you receive a request, you will be noticed by email. In the lead manager you will find all the leads you have received for you.

Quality of leads - Reporting abuse

By using a No cure - No pay business model, we can keep the costs of setting properties low. Nor do we oblige advertisers to purchase an expensive subscription from us.   Of course, we strive for high quality leads. However, it may occur that someone submits a "test request". If you receive such a request, the lead manager can " report abuse ". We will then receive a message and will investigate the lead. If the report is well-founded, we will credit the lead.

We won't credit leads :

- When someone decides not to buy a property from you.
- When interest in the property is not very concrete or when the purchase period is long.
- When someone prefers to be contacted by phone or e-mail only.
- When there is no response to email or phone.
- When the property has already been sold.
 

To measure the quality of leads, all applicants will receive an email after 48 hours with a number of questions about the first contact. Leads are called up by us on a random basis in order to measure the quality.
