Rightmove has at last completed on its acquisition of tenancy referencing firm Van Mildert, first announced two months ago.

The deal, reported to be worth some £16m, has to await approval from the Financial Conduct Authority: this came through yesterday.

The portal company says the acquisition will support its Rightmove Tenant Passport platform, which allows tenants to create an online profile to connect with letting agents and landlords.
