Setting up email alerts (Property alerts) is a great way to keep up to date with local properties coming on the market and a way to not miss that potential dream home, as you can receive daily summary emails of properties which might interest you. They are easy to set up, there's no limit to how many you can create, and they can be created for all the different departments within Zoopla.
To create an email alert, you will need to be signed into My Zoopla.
