About 5-4-3-2-1

5-4-3-2-1 is a visual directory of international property and real estate websites.

It brings together screenshots of estate agents, realtors, property developers, property portals, architects, holiday property specialists and other businesses connected with property around the world.

Rather than presenting these companies as a conventional list of links, 5-4-3-2-1 shows their websites visually. Each entry is represented by a screenshot, making it easier to browse the international property market, discover businesses and recognise the character of different companies and markets at a glance.

A visual record of international property websites

Websites continually change. Businesses redesign their sites, alter their branding, move into new markets or disappear altogether.

5-4-3-2-1 forms part of a long-running website screenshot system that periodically revisits websites and records how they look over time. Where previous screenshots are available, they create a visual archive of the site’s development.

This makes 5-4-3-2-1 more than a property directory. It is also a growing historical record of how international real estate businesses have presented themselves online.

Property and realty around the world

The directory includes websites from many countries and many parts of the property industry, from local residential agencies to international property companies.

The terminology varies from country to country — estate agents, realtors, brokers, property consultants and real estate agencies — but they all form part of the same worldwide property market.

5-4-3-2-1 provides a simple visual way to explore that market.

Website screenshots, not property listings

5-4-3-2-1 does not advertise individual properties and it is not a property portal.

The subject of the site is the websites themselves: the companies, organisations and services involved in property and real estate.

When a website interests you, you can follow the link to visit the organisation directly and see its current properties, services and information.
