What is a Featured Property Box (FP)?
- The blue box is displayed at the top of the page, 1 per page and rotates purely at random
- The property is then also displayed within the listings as it would normally be.
- A featured property has the function to rotate between the properties the agent wishes to display in the box which they can amend in Rightmove Plus.

Please note you can't see this product in Rightmove Plus.
Featured New Home
The Featured New home and featured property appear similar but it looks like a sticker text option is available for featured new homes. This is not related to the featured part but instead is to do with the product Spotlight see here. See below where the developer has selected 'Only 5% Deposit' as the spotlight sticker text option.
The developer will need to go into Rightmove Plus to select a property to feature like the featured property box looks like. After choosing a rotation setting the developer selects 'Feature' and then 'Save'.

Bigger price and brand plus. Shows twice in the listings. | The ability of having an additional service to provide gives them an edge over the service other agents can provide to them. | By having that edge they can use this to perhaps win further business over others. |
Additional Service for the agent to provide. Ability to rotate properties. | If they have fast moving stock they can rotate between these, or if they require more interest on a slow moving property it can be enhanced. | By being able to rotate on fast moving stock this adds value for them as a customer receiving the product, or to generate more interest on slow moving stock it could be used to strengthen the relationship the agent has with their vendor or Landlord. |
