Who is Emoov?
Russell Quirk, CEO and Founder of Emoov, started the business in 2010. After running a traditional estate agency chain, Russell believed he could provide better and cheaper service online as office footfall was relatively low, and most people asked for details online. As a result, Emoov flourished and surpassed the £1 billion property sales mark. Sadly in December 2018, Emoov went into liquidation, citing financial difficulties. They relaunched in January 2019 under the ownership and guidance of the Mashroom team.

Our Verdict
While Emoov provides a good service at a fairly reasonable price, little truly sets it apart from other online estate agents. Their Trustpilot reviews are consistently good; even after the relaunch and merging with Mashroom, property sellers still have confidence in the Emoov brand.
