Grappling with too many results

My fellow Nestorticulturalists,

good news, we recently rolled out some minor design tweaks in the hopes of making it a bit easier to sift through our database and find your dream home more quickly.

Specifically, we’re attempting to grapple with the situation when you search across large areas like London or Scotland where we typically have more than 50,000 homes. In these cases it’s difficult to argue that there is a relevant correct search result. While we do show a few houses or flats we focus on helping the user quickly narrow his search to a more manageable number of possibilities. We’ve tried to make this as clear as possible.

Have a look and please let us know what you think. Here’s a screenshot of properties in Wales:

The problem isn’t just one we face in large geographies - we have it everywhere we have a density of listings - for example as seen here when you search for a home in East London

East London

As always, best of luck with your house hunt. Rest assured our work on usability is far from over, we have a few more design changes being tested right now on a subset of users. More soon.
