Winston Score History

The full picture

Rightmove is the UK's largest online property portal. It connects people who want to buy, rent, or sell homes with estate agents and property developers who list their properties on the site. Think of it as the Google of UK house hunting — almost everyone in Britain looking for a home starts their search on Rightmove.

The company makes money by charging estate agents and developers a monthly subscription fee to advertise their listings. It operates almost entirely in the UK, generating around £350 million in annual revenue with extraordinarily high profit margins. Rightmove's moat comes from a powerful network effect: buyers go where the listings are, and agents list where the buyers are, making it very hard for rivals to break in. The main risk is that a well-funded competitor — or a shift toward social media property search — could chip away at that dominance over time.
