We do not share your email address with buyers, but once this contact form has been filled you will get an email message with buyer details. Additionally, prospective buyers can also request to get your contact details including your agency adress and phone number (but not your email address), we also log these details but in this case it depends on buyer if he decides to contact you or not.
We also offer statistics about your listings including: Listing Views, Visitors sent to your Website, and number of times your contact details has been requested. To view these statistics please access "My Real Estate Listings": http://www.africapropertylistings.com/Real_Estate/myads/1/.

Terms explained:
- Listing Views = number of times your real estate listing has been viewed by prospective buyers / renters. With listing views we store contact details (e-mail, phone number and country) of those visitors who selected to share this information and as a Premium Member you will be able to contact these persons to maximize your marketing efforts.
