Real Estate TV

Real Estate TV, also known as RETV, was an award-winning UK-based television channel and multi-media company that formed part of News Corporation's Fox International Channels' network.

As a simulcast company, RETV was the UK's only dedicated property television channel, and it successfully bridges the divide between traditional television transmission and new media, online, on demand broadcasting.

Launched in October 2004 by Mark Dodd, its founding partner and Bruce Dunlop on the British Sky Broadcasting platform and closed on 1 April 2009, Real Estate TV was available on Sky Channels 262 and 263, on demand on Virgin TV and at www.realestatetv.tv

The channel broadcast 24 hours a day on Sky Channel 262 and had a +1 service available on Sky Channel 263. RETV broadcast to over 21 million adult viewers in the UK and Ireland, and to millions more across Europe. The company was based at FIC's studios at Shepherd's Bush in London and Real Estate TV was a member of the Association of International Property Professionals.


Steve Dawkins, managing director of the company continued to lead Real Estate TV despite the January 2008 controlling stake purchase by Fox International Channels (FIC)

Programming included the transmission of quality, entertaining property programs from the UK and around the world, as well as RETV commissioned series such as Next Big Thing.

Next Big Thing specifically focuses on global emerging property markets of interest and financial potential to the channel's viewers.

Online on its own dedicated website, RETV offered streaming video, a property finder service, international real estate news and value added viewer services such as currency exchange, insurance and international mortgages.
