WHY SNAPPIT?

Every property sale comes with obstacles. Delays, unexpected costs, or deal uncertainty can put commission at risk... Or worse, kill the deal altogether. Snappit is a platform built for estate agents. It equips agents with smart, deal-closing solutions at every stage of the sale. Whether a property needs funds for upgrades, bridging finance before transfer, or a way to unlock commission earlier, Snappit has a tool for that. With powerful modules like the Solar Snapp, Agent Snapp, and Seller Snapp, agents can overcome hurdles, keep sales on track, and unlock new revenue streams all from one simple, agent-first platform.

OUR MISSION

We believe estate agents are the driving force behind every property sale. From the first viewing to the final signature.
They’re not just intermediaries; they’re deal-makers. Our mission is to put the power where it belongs, in the hands of estate agents. Snappit is built to help agents solve the financial and logistical problems that can stall or sink a deal. Whether it’s bridging finance, renovations, solar upgrades, or fast commission access, Snappit gives agents the tools to keep deals moving and unlock new income in the process.
We are creating a future where estate agents earn more, wait less, and have complete control over their transactions. A future with freedom, not friction, for agents and their clients alike.
