Trade Me Property: Real Estate 4+

Trade me is the only way to sell privately. Sold 5 houses here in the last 10 years. BUT….the prices to sell keep going up with little improvement in the website….the gurus are always doing bits at the front but nothing to improve in the guts of the site. But the kiddy’s who play here probably don’t own houses and certainly never market them……ah well listening ain’t hot in this generation. Peace and love!

When you turn your phone on the side to view the images landscape, the phone app often freezes. Sometimes clicking the back button to go back to your list will freeze the app. Sometimes, when you go from landscape back to portrait, the image sizes get stuck in a smaller size and you can’t pinch them back out. it’s a pain in the neck. The open home lists work well, but this app crashes every couple of minutes and has done on every version. You pull up a search for houses go in and check a couple and then try to go back and the app has crashed. iPhone 12 Pro Max iOS 16, but it also had the same problems on iOS 15 and older versions of the app. It has literally crashed every 30 seconds for the last 5 minutes. Each time I have to close the app and start over. USELESS WASTE OF TIME

This app is a great platform for buying and selling houses in NZ. Parts of this app are great, but more often than not I don’t particularly enjoy using it. The loading times for searches are lengthy, and restarting the app doesn’t fix it. I feel that real estate companies have too big of a say in the all - probably by virtue being paid of paying for listings. Whereas the buyer experience is limited - for example I am sick of finding apartments in the townhouse and house sections, and I wish I could hide or remove listings I have already seen or am not interested in.
