We’ve just launched a new feature on the site which we think you’ll really like. It’s called My Places, and this is how it works.

What?
My Places allows you to check how many miles a property listed on the site is from up to 5 places that are important to you, such as your place of work, or your child’s school.

As you browse the property listings you will see that under each picture there’s a gold star with the My Places prompt:  “How far is this from my work, children’s schools, gym?…”

If you are not a registered user, or are not logged in, a click on this will take you to the log in or registration window.

How?

If you are registered and logged in it will take you to the new My Places page.

Here all you have to do is type in the place you are interested in (the office, the local pub) and its postcode.

All properties searched in the UK will then show the user how far they are from each of their places.

So, at a glance you can now easily see if a property is within a reasonable distance from your workplace, your girlfriend’s house, or any other place you’re interested in.

Or, alternatively, you can use it to make sure you are far enough away from the in-laws, a rowdy school, or, as in this example – Dungeness Power Station.

Hope you like it. Happy house hunting!
