Property portal OnTheMarket to seek listing on London's AIM

Aug 4 (Reuters) - OnTheMarket, the online property portal challenging Zoopla and Rightmove (LSE: RMV.L - news) , is looking to raise about 50 million pounds ($66 million) via a listing on London's junior market, its parent company said.

Agents' Mutual (Taiwan OTC: 6407.TWO - news) , a company launched and backed by estate agents, said OnTheMarket would seek a valuation of between 200 million and 250 million pounds via an initial public offering on the Alternative Investment Market.

It plans to offer investors a minority stake and to use the proceeds to attract and retain more estate agents via a national media campaign.

The group's existing members will vote on September 6 on the potential conversion of their interest in the portal into shares, so that the IPO can proceed, Agents' Mutual said.
