Search filter and To Buy

Hello

I’m a newbie.

1.I’ve tried hunting around the website for the fields to filter when searching. All I can see is the tags option. Is that it? or have I missed it?

2.I’m trying to search on any To Buy ads. I can’t see a filter for it. Please advise.

Many thanks,

Stephen

Some further info: I don’t see the orange strip and the scout info.

So I also thought: let’s try logging out and in, but I can’t see any log out option. Please let me know what I’m missing. Sorry if it’s obvious.

kind regards

Stephen

Hi @stephen

Thank you for your message requesting help with filtering listings on this site.

We indeed have an in-built advanced search, tagging & filtering system that is available only to *paid members.

Here’s a video tutorial of how to navigate this system to filter and build shortlists of preferred listings:

Hi @stephen ,

Sorry about the delay in responding - we’re currently gearing up a distribution of our latest findings.

Please find a detailed response to these questions (with video demo) in our earlier reply further down this thread.

Any more questions though - just ask, we’re here to help.

Speak soon,

@Admin

Thanks for getting back to me. I watched the video but it doesn’t tell me: 1. how can i filter on people wanting to buy. I seem to only see sellers. 2. I don’t see the orange strip and the scout info. 3. how do i log out?

kind regards

Stephen

Also it seems to still be telling me to upgrade, when i have already done so. Please see screen below

Hi @stephen

Thanks for your response.

Let’s answer those questions:

  1. We just recently opened up a channel for buyers to post their ads - little uptake at present. But something else that works MUCH better, is us advertising a property for sale via a newsletter. This is getting great engagement…thousands of views per advert per week. Are you selling a smallholding?

  2. The orange strip and scout info is a little dated, we’ve since changed some of this. Please see an updated guide.

  3. To log out - click on your profile icon in the top right hand corner of the screen, then clicking on the Log Out link:

Any other questions or feedback, please reply.

Hello

Thank you for the responses.

Yes, we are selling a smallholding. I’ll give you a brief flavour of where we are up to:

We have a unique 5 bed, character farmhouse in Solihull on 3 acres of highly productive land which we farm regeneratively. We have owned this property for over 30 years and the smallholding supports a wide range for self-sufficiency, from meat chicks, pasture raised pigs, through to a dairy cow.

We were on Rightmove with one of the rural agents from February to May this year, and then went off market. We intend to re launch on rightmove at the end of December but this time without an agent (we’ll use one of the online facilities to bypass the estate agents).

We are currently selling the property off-market via our own website and a youtube channel on regenerative farming. The website is www.smallholdingforsale.uk . The guide price is £1.95M.

Please let me know if you feel our property is appropriate for your marketplace and/or newsletter. When I search on your website with price > 1M, a few listings come up but all below 1.5M.

We want to publicise that the property is currently off-market and that we intend to launch it on rightmove just before the new year (maybe 26th December).

Kind regards

Stephen

Just checking in: have you seen my latest reply from 4 days ago?

Hi Stephen -

Apologies for the delay.

We’ve urgently been redeveloping how our offering is presented.

Feedback indicates that ā€œnavigation is confusingā€ and there are ā€œfar too many distractionsā€.

And of course, this is the opposite of our intention.

Thus, we’ve redeveloped our main site which will now carry all listings (please take a look and give us your honest thoughts): https://smallholdingsforsale.co.uk

(n.b. this forum will continue for member discussion, but listings will exist on the site linked above.)

As for your :house_with_garden: property for sale, of course, we’d be delighted to list it!

Yes, Ā£1.95M is towards the upper end of our ā€˜range’, but there are MANY subscribers with budgets in this realm.

To get it listed, please complete this form: Build Your Listing

*We plan to publish and promote your listing from tomorrow onwards.

Any questions, please feel free to ask (& again, your feedback is greatly appreciated).

Speak soon,

The Smallholdings For Sale Team
