W PROPERTY L MATCH MY HOUSE LAUNCHES IN WIRRAL Innovative start-up, Match My House, having received angel investment last year is launching on the Wirral, with future plans to conquer the UK. Dan went on to explain “One of the issues we wanted to remove is the limited office hours communication and having to communicate through third parties. Match My House is the brainchild of Dan Thomas, a local Wirral resident. The recent injection of investment will help launch this much-needed service, which was formulated to streamline the property market. "Like many of the social media platforms Match My House allows you to make connection requests, and once connected communicate through the platform 24/7, ask questions, arrange viewings, and even place bids." Dan explained “My wife and I have moved home 4 times in the past 10 years, crazy I know, and each time we found ourselves having similar frustrating experiences from the service provided by estate agents, don’t get me wrong there are agents offering a good service, though unfortunately this was a rare occurrence in our experience.” Match My House also wanted to give the ability for Sellers to proactively find Buyers themselves, and not wait for someone to approach the agent, or trust the agent to be proactive on your behalf. Dan has always had that burning ambition to start his own company and having submitted a business plan through the Angel Investment Network, received the much-needed investment to start his journey into entrepreneurship. Match My House is providing a new and alternative way for Buyers and Sellers to do business, whether you’re with or without an estate agent. It’s a marketplace platform giving Sellers and Buyers the tools and full control in buying and selling their home. Dan explained “The easiest way to explain Match My House is to think of Match.com but for houses! Buyers and Sellers create their own profiles, publish their own properties, and can sell their home for as little as £30." 46 wirrallife.com Having lived on the Wirral most of his life Dan is extremely excited to give Wirral residents the first use of Match My House, “Our mission is to reduce the cost, remove the stress caused by third parties, and bring the fun and excitement back into moving home” Dan said. Match My House will be providing the first 50 users with a free sign-up, and in the coming weeks will be launching a competition to win a £100 Gusto voucher, so if you’re thinking of buying or selling, or struggling to sell through your agent, then please register now at www.matchmyhouse.co.uk to make sure you don’t miss out on the Match My House revolution.
