Rumours that Globrix plans to start charging agents £200 a month have been firmly dismissed by its chief executive, Daniel Lee.

Lee said: “We are free to list, and we always will be. We have no intention of ever charging, and if I had to change to a subscription model, I’d shut up shop tomorrow. The rumour is just nonsense.”

Lee said the site would be free to agents wanting to list properties and to have traffic. However, he said: “We do charge for some extra services, and always have done. Some agents want our premium services and are happy to pay for them, but they do not suit all agents.”

He said one new paid-for service to be launched by Globrix is an enhanced traffic generation service, sending greater amounts of traffic and email inquiries to the agent’s own site and possibly utilising a pay-per-lead model.

But, Lee emphasised: “Again, this will not suit all agents, who will continue to be happy with our free service.”

He said that the recent upheaval at loss-making Propertyfinder – whose sale, or part-sale, is currently thought to be going through to Zoopla – was evidence that a paid-for subscription model did not necessarily equate to success.
