Property selection, rebuilt

Property search, beautifully organised.

Turn property brochures, particulars, photographs, floorplans and viewing information into elegant selections your clients can explore from one place.

Built by property people, for property people.

An illustration of the adviser’s view. Every name, price and date on it is invented.

The property is extraordinary. The process often isn’t.

A serious search can involve dozens of agents, hundreds of files and several markets. Brochures arrive by email. Videos arrive on WhatsApp. Floorplans are somewhere else. Viewing times live in a spreadsheet.

Then somebody asks:

“Which was the house with the great garden we saw on Tuesday?”

Kotta was built to end that.

How it works

From inbox chaos to client-ready in three steps.

  1. Add the properties

    Upload the material you already receive — brochures, particulars, photographs, floorplans and links. Drop in a set of particulars and the property page comes back filled in, ready for you to check.

  2. Build the selection

    Kotta keeps every property consistent and organises the search into locations, dated selections and viewing days — so a client can see what they are looking at and when they are seeing it.

  3. Share and keep moving

    Give the client one clean place to review the options. Add properties as the search develops, without rebuilding a deck or resending the whole search.

Product

Everything a property search needs. None of the spreadsheet archaeology.

  • Property selections

    A dated set of properties, presented consistently. The thing the client actually receives.

  • Brochures and particulars

    Drop in the PDF. Price, areas, beds, baths and year come back filled in for you to confirm.

  • Photographs and floorplans

    Full-screen galleries with floorplans kept separate, so plans are never buried among the photographs.

  • Viewing days

    Each property carries its own viewing time, shown in the property’s timezone rather than the reader’s.

  • Yes, maybe, no

    The client answers on each property, with reasons — and a change of mind stays visible instead of overwriting the first answer.

  • One link, no login

    A single private address opens on a phone. No password for the client to lose, nothing to install.

Multi-market

One client. Three countries. One Kotta.

The best property searches rarely fit neatly into one postcode.

Kotta keeps separate cities, countries, trips and selections organised without fragmenting the client experience.

For advisers

Spend less time formatting. More time advising.

Kotta is not meant to replace the judgement of a good adviser. It removes the repetitive work around it.

Instead of

  • Resizing photographs
  • Building another PowerPoint
  • Rebuilding PDFs
  • Resending brochures
  • Searching WhatsApp
  • Assembling viewing packs by hand

More time for

  • Sourcing
  • Comparing
  • Advising
  • Negotiating
  • The client relationship
Software should organise the search. The adviser should make it better.

Why we built it

Built because we needed it ourselves.

Kotta was created by the team behind Longrad, a London property advisory firm working with clients across prime and super-prime residential property. Finding the properties was rarely the problem. Presenting them properly was.

The same thing kept reappearing on every search: PDFs sent and resent, videos disappearing into WhatsApp, information spread across email and spreadsheets, viewing plans living somewhere else, and every new property adding more manual admin.

The available tools never quite solved it the way the team wanted. So they built their own. That became Kotta.

It continues to be developed by the Longrad team, led by its directors, including Longrad’s founder, Roman Grigoriev.

The name

Why Kotta?

The name comes from the team’s Estonian roots.

Koda is an old Estonian word historically associated with a dwelling, and the root from which kodu — the modern word for home — developed. It survives in words for the spaces we pass through on the way in, among them trepikoda, a stairwell.

Kotta is the directional form: into the dwelling.


A list becomes a selection.
A selection becomes a viewing.
A viewing becomes a decision.
And eventually, one property becomes home.

From property to home. Into Kotta.

Questions

The things worth knowing before you ask.

What does Kotta cost?
Kotta is in invitation-only release, so pricing is agreed with each firm individually rather than published. Ask us and we will tell you what it would cost you before you commit to anything.
Do my clients need an account or a password?
No. A client opens one private link, on whatever device is in their hand. There is nothing to install, nothing to sign up for and no password for them to lose.
Who can see a client’s selection?
Only the people you send the link to. Each link is a long, unguessable address rather than a listing anyone can find, and it is issued per recipient — so a link given to a colleague or a co-agent can be read-only, or limited to one part of the search, without giving away the rest of it. Selections are not indexed by search engines.
Who owns the brochures and photographs I upload?
You do. You grant only the rights needed to host your material and show it to the people you choose to share it with, and that permission is not a licence to use your material in our own marketing. It is set out in clause 5 of our Terms.
Does Kotta hold video?
No. Kotta holds photographs, floorplans, brochures and particulars. There is no video field and no player — advisers are certainly sent video, and organising it is not a problem Kotta claims to have solved.
Does it connect to my CRM or my agency software?
Not today. Kotta sits alongside whatever you already use: you drop in the material you receive and it produces the thing you send the client. There is no integration to configure and nothing to migrate.
