Zoopla Returns to Profit as Valuation Leads Jump
Zoopla has reported a return to statutory profit for the year ending 31 December 2025, alongside a 25% increase in valuation leads generated for estate agents. The property portal revealed these figures in its latest statutory accounts.
According to Zoopla, its best-performing product converted 43% of valuation leads into sales listings during 2025. The company stated that its customer base of estate agents “remained broadly stable” over the year, though it did not disclose specific numbers of agents paying to list homes on its platform.
Revenue for Zoopla dipped slightly to £83.2 million in 2025, down from £84.2 million in 2024, as the company completed what it described as a rationalisation of its products. Despite this, Zoopla reported a statutory profit of £20.7 million and an operating margin of 16%, while continuing to invest in its platform.
Zoopla also reported a 39% increase in the number of homeowners tracking their property’s value through the portal during 2025, reaching 5.4 million. The company said this figure has since risen to 6.4 million. Zoopla is focusing on identifying homeowners before they begin actively searching for their next property, using data from homeowners monitoring property values and local market conditions. This information is being used as part of Zoopla’s investment in AI and conversational property search.
The company highlighted that new multi-year partnerships with home builders, estate agents, and brand partners reflect its approach to delivering measurable returns on investment for its customers.
These developments may be of interest to UK letting agents and inventory clerks, as Zoopla’s increased focus on early identification of potential sellers and investment in AI could impact lead generation and market activity.
