A new commercial property search portal has launched. It has declined to say what its listings fees are to agents.
The portal, Harness, has already secured £3m, said to be a record amount of equity seed funding for a proptech business from private investors.
It claims to offer a different approach to other portals, using advanced data science and high-quality data sourcing to support commercial agents and surveyors, allowing them to work more efficiently and receive better quality user enquiries and search insights.
Users are able to search by five main sectors: office, retail, industrial, leisure and land.
The company is led by CEO Ben Mein, who previously worked as head of digital strategy at News UK.
In answer to EYE, the portal said it has not yet disclosed the cost to agents listing on it.

Interesting that the Commercial industry is still in the dark ages…you get massive shopping malls being rented out by businesses not even using websites or rightmove.
Also why are commercial boards so big?????
Also tax landlords who let shops sit empty to protect high rents on other units…. commercial property is way over priced at moment now the web takes the 20% profit off traditional businesses.
