Over half a million appointments completed, have a look at what our clients say....

We could not operate…without them "I strongly recommend teaming up with Viewber. National Residential has been availing its services since 2016 and we continue to do so. They offer a wide range of services such as scheduling viewings and open house appointments for potential buyers and surveyors, as well as providing marketing elements such as photography, floor plans, and 360 tours. Their nationwide availability ensures that their services are easily accessible to everyone, no matter where they are located. They are particularly effective when it comes to facilitating access and viewings with our tenanted property sales which are a real challenge to many agents. For vacant property sales; Viewber will facilitate viewings and surveys by either fitting a key safe or else having one of their local agents act as a key holder. We could not operate our auction sales business without them." David Coughlin - DIRECTOR
