As the title really. I'm trying to work out if I have full coverage of the available properties on rightmove, or need to combine it with other sites.

Some of those I've found are as below, and for what I've been looking for, rightmove has the same ones appearing on others, plus a few more. So am I missing out on anything?

Ask yourself why almost all estate agents are on Rightmove. It's the site just about everybody uses

I used Globrix for a bit (found it better for scotland) but Rightmove is what I tend to use for UK.

We found our plot by using Rightmove, all the others we tried were either a pain to use or seemingly updated once every 3 months.

I prefer Rightmove though Globrix is pretty good. When we were looking 3 months ago, updates were made on Rightmove 2 or 3 days before they came onto Globrix.

As we're on the subject does anyone have a good linkey for a reputable overseas property website? Looking into a possible holiday home in Brazil but anything I search seems to be timeshare or scam etc??

OP sorry for hi-jacking thead, I'll remove if you like.
