Agent testimonials The increase in traffic we've had to our own site since Globrix entered the property stage has been phenomenal. Greene & Co are so pleased to see a new site such as Globrix, giving both the user and the advertiser a far more beneficial experience. Once purchasers realise that every property that is available on the market is advertised on Globrix, and not just those that are listed through agencies willing to pay to advertise (like on the other portals) I'm sure traffic will increase even more! Very happy with the service and the quality of the "property search engine". Jacqui Daley - Greene & Co "Globrix offers a highly innovative and fresh approach to advertising property, owing to its sophisticated search function which allows buyers to search for things that really matter to them. Globrix is simple to navigate, smart to look at and very informative. The site focuses on the customer's most basic needs as well as their more sophisticated requirements. This customer focussed approach is reflected in the quality buyers we are finding for our vendors through the site." Ben Stroud, King Sturge LLP
