Newspaper Advertising

Over 75% of our enquiries now come through the internet! 

Newspaper advertising is one of our highest costs but does not provide the biggest or best source of Landlords or Tenants and therefore, is constantly under review.

Newspaper advertising is becoming less and less cost effective with more people choosing to use the internet for finding properties and letting agents.

Over the years, we have advertised in the Braintree & Witham Times, the Essex Chronicle, the Weekly News, the Stansted Life, the Dunmow Broadcast and the Essex Independent.

Essex Chronicle - Weekly paid-for local newspaper with a seperate Property Supplement. This is the most popular local newspaper for people looking for property to rent.

Essex Independent - Bi-weekly FREE quality full colour property newspaper brought to you by the people who have produced the Property Trader magazine for years. This is delivered through the door of most homes in Braintree & Chelmsford, PLUS is available from most Estate Agents, Tescos, Sainsburys, etc.

Most newspapers have advance deadlines to supply copy, therefore, when you finally get to read it, the information can be 3 to 4 days old. Tenants become frustrated with unavailable properties and out-of-date prices, giving a poor service to our Tenants & Landlords.

This is why at cmRENT, we focus more on our website & internet advertising as it will always be bang up-to-date and reliable.

Our advertising in the local newspapers is becoming less as they fail to deliver the quality service and value for money which we strive for our Landlords & Tenants.
