Launched today, www.shedfinders.com is a new commercial property website that will focus solely on Industrial Property, Land and Investments.
Operated by a team from a Chartered Surveying background – and Industrial Agency in particular-‐ the site provides a new platform upon which to market Industrial Property, Land and Investments, distinct from the volume of shops, offices etc to be found on most other sites.
“I think it’s universally accepted that the majority of property searches are now being conducted online and so it seemed sensible that there should be one online marketplace for anyone to search for Industrial Property – separate from wider commercial property types. It’s a distinct market and so a bespoke site enables quick, simple searching.” said Shedfinders Director Jonathan Cockburn.
Simplicity is at the heart of Shedfinders -‐from the branding through to the ease of navigating the site itself, the process of matching available properties to requirements is made easy. Budget constraints dictate that everyone is seeking maximum exposure for minimum outlay – what Shedfinders delivers is a well designed site created after extensive market research that is undoubtedly cost effective and optimised for search engine prominence.
“We intend that the site will act as a catalyst for increased contact between agents and occupiers and so we created a number of features to encourage this – such as our “good to know”, “submit terms” and “compare properties” functions.”
Acknowledging the need to keep pace in a rapidly changing market, Shedfinders have formed an association with Napier University in Edinburgh with whom they are working on developing new applications for the site. “It’s a business that is constantly evolving and so it’s important that we are continuously looking for new ways to improve functionality and we take our lead on this from listening to what our users want to get from a site.”
