Jonas Gustafsson, CEO of Hemnet, comments:
“We launched ‘Sell First, Pay Later’ in Stockholm County on 2 February and the initial feedback and data has been strong. During the month, new published listings on Hemnet in Stockholm outperformed Hemnet listings published in the rest of Sweden by 20+ percentage points year-on-year, clearly indicating that the new model is successful in driving volumes and lowering the barriers to listing on Hemnet. So far, approximately 50% of eligible property sellers have chosen ‘Sell First, Pay Later’, which further shows the attractiveness of the model. Whilst still early, the initial data suggests that the sell-through-rate for ‘Sell First, Pay Later’ listings is in line with our expectations at just below 20% during the first month, indicating no particular quality deterioration.”
‘Sell First, Pay Later’ was successfully launched in Västra Götaland County on 2 March and will be rolled out in the rest of Sweden on 30 March.
