One marketplace. One community
More than a rural marketplace. A smarter way to sell, giving private sellers the service, tools and exposure of an estate agent — without the estate agent or the hefty fees.
Why we created SmallholdingSales
Traditional property portals are built for the mass market. Rural property is different.
A smallholding isn’t simply a house. It’s land, animals, outbuildings, machinery, possibilities and a way of life. We created SmallholdingSales to bring those properties and the people searching for them together in one specialist marketplace.
For buyers, that means a place built around the things that actually matter when searching for rural property. For private sellers, it means the opportunity to market their property directly to an audience actively looking for the lifestyle they have to offer.
For buyers
Search for rural property based on the things that matter to you — from location, land and lifestyle to equestrian requirements, outbuildings and more.
Use Property Matchmaker to tell us what you’re looking for and let suitable opportunities come to you.
For private sellers
Why pay thousands in estate-agent fees to market your property when you can reach a specialist rural audience directly?
Create your own listing, showcase the lifestyle your property offers, communicate with buyers and manage the process through SmallholdingSales.
Our mission
Our ambition is simple: to build the UK’s number one destination for rural property.
We want to give private sellers a genuine alternative to traditional estate-agency marketing — helping them retain more of the money they’ve worked hard to create, while putting their property in front of the people most likely to appreciate it.
We’ve created more than just a marketplace, it’s an end-to-end solution for both buyers and private sellers. You can retain control and gain full transparency from the very beginning through to the very end at completion.
Sellers
“I can’t list it on Rightmove without an estate agent, I’d only be able to market it on Facebook and it won’t get enough exposure.”
True, you can’t list it on Rightmove without an estate agent but is your property going to reach its full potential on there? SMALLHOLDINGSALES is the go-to platform for all rural linked property. Our audience is niche, and only looking for properties like yours. Your property is not competing for space on a page swamped in urban properties. We connect the right property to the right audience, giving you maximum exposure.
“I’m not very confident, I don’t like the thought of having to negotiate offers, sales is not my forte.”
No one can sell your property better than you can. It’s your home and your story to tell. You will surprise yourself, trust me.
As for the negotiation part, don’t worry. Buyers can submit offers to you via the portal, you can submit counter offers, decline or accept all via the platform — no awkward phone call conversations. You’re also in full control of viewings. Buyers will request a viewing and you can suggest a time that suits you.
Buyers
“I’ve been searching the market for months; Rightmove, Zoopla, OnTheMarket, social media. I can’t find any property that ticks the boxes.”
Your ideal property is probably out there right now. The problem is property such as smallholdings, farms, equestrian and rural-linked property are hidden on generic marketplaces. It starts with the search filters and ends with the property of your dreams. SMALLHOLDINGSALES is designed to put the right properties in front of you, allowing you to search by criteria that is relevant to you.
“I’ve missed out on several properties now, the estate agents never get back to me or can never accommodate viewings around my work schedule.”
Our platform allows you to instantly connect with private sellers, no middleman to slow the process. One of the biggest benefits with private sellers is that they can offer more flexibility when it comes to viewing times.
Development doesn’t end here, we’re already working on some very exciting new features for the platform.
