In October 2012, the name was changed to New Broom Limited, signalling a desire to <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/a_new_broom_sweeps_clean" class="extiw" title="wikt:a new broom sweeps

href="#cite_note-Pescod-15">[15]</a> In April 2014, Purplebricks publicly launched and began listing homes in the United Kingdom, although initially only within parts of southern England.<a href="#cite_note-KateAllen-9">[9]</a> In August, the company raised £8m of equity investment led by fund manager <a href="/wiki/Neil_Woodford" title="Neil Woodford">Neil Woodford</a>, who acquired a 30 percent stake in the company.<a href="#cite_note-RafiqOmar-16">[16]</a><a href="#cite_note-Renshaw2015-17">[17]</a> By May 2015, operations expanded into other regions of England and Wales, and plans were announced for a possible stock market listing.<a href="#cite_note-Reuters-18">[18]</a> The company appointed <a href="/wiki/Canaccord_Genuity" title="Canaccord Genuity">Canaccord

href="/wiki/Alternative_Investment_Market" title="Alternative Investment Market">AIM</a> later that month, making it the first online estate agency to debut on the stock market.<a href="#cite_note-Kollewe-22">[22]</a><a href="#cite_note-Steafel-23">[23]</a> Ahead of the float, the company stated that it had 4,300 residential properties listed for sale—nearly twice the number of the next largest online agency—and intended to use raised funds to further boost its national presence, acquire more agents, and invest in the brand and technology.<a href="#cite_note-Evans-24">[24]</a><a href="#cite_note-Kollewe-22">[22]</a> The company also announced it had already sold £58 million worth of shares, primarily to three major corporate investors: <a

href="#cite_note-Reuters2016-26">[26]</a> In August, Purplebricks launched a media campaign in Australia about the company's fixed-price property marketing, and formally launched its operations there later that month.<a href="#cite_note-LBBOnline-27">[27]</a><a href="#cite_note-CampaignBrief-28">[28]</a><a href="#cite_note-Stiles-29">[29]</a> In 2017, Purplebricks’ Australian subsidiary generated a £6.1 million loss with £3.9 million spent on administration costs and £3.8 million spent on marketing and PR-related costs.<a href="#cite_note-Schlesinger-30">[30]</a> Purplebricks expanded into the United States in 2017, beginning operations in Los Angeles before moving into San Diego, Sacramento, Fresno, and then New York in 2018.<a href="#cite_note-Olick-31">[31]</a><a href="#cite_note-ReutersUS-32">[32]</a> The expansion was supported by more than $60 million in funds raised through a special stock offering.<a href="#cite_note-TekeWiggin-33">[33]</a> Purplebricks' business proposition remained essentially the same for U.S. customers: the company charged a listing fee of $3,200, which sellers were required to pay regardless of whether their home sold.<a href="#cite_note-TekeWiggin-33">[33]</a> In August 2017, Purplebricks was featured on <a href="/wiki/BBC" title="BBC">BBC</a>'s <a href="/wiki/Watchdog_(TV_series)" class="mw-redirect" title="Watchdog (TV series)">Watchdog</a> following an investigation into claims of misleading customers.<a href="#cite_note-34">[34]</a><a href="#cite_note-35">[35]</a><a href="#cite_note-36">[36]</a> In September 2017, consumer review website Trustpilot issued an open letter clarifying its Purplebricks review policy following allegations concerning the “validity of reviews of Purplebricks by customers”.<a href="#cite_note-37">[37]</a><a href="#cite_note-38">[38]</a> That same month, the company was accused of “corporate bullying” following suspension from estate agent review website allAgents.co.uk. Purplebricks threatened the consumer review website with legal action over the publication of negative reviews due to the site's lack of vetting for those leaving reviews.<a href="#cite_note-39">[39]</a><a href="#cite_note-40">[40]</a><a href="#cite_note-41">[41]</a> In July 2018, Purplebricks expanded their operations into Canada through the $38 million acquisition of DPCF, a Canadian real estate company that also positioned itself as "commission-free".<a href="#cite_note-Hinchliffe-42">[42]</a><a href="#cite_note-REM-43">[43]</a> The acquisition announcement noted that DPCF would continue to be led by the existing management team.<a href="#cite_note-REM-43">[43]</a><a href="#cite_note-PressRelease-44">[44]</a> In October 2018, Purplebricks announced it would be entering the European market through a joint venture with digital publisher <a href="/wiki/Axel_Springer_SE" title="Axel Springer SE">Axel Springer SE</a>. The two companies would jointly purchases a 25.9% stake in Homeday, a German online estate agent.<a href="#cite_note-ReutersGermany-45">[45]</a> Like Purplebricks, Homeday markets itself by highlighting its lower selling fees compared to traditional agents.<a href="#cite_note-Lewis-46">[46]</a> Forbes magazine reported in January 2020 that an email was sent from Purplebricks Canada's marketing department to all employees asking for positive reviews from friends and family regardless of whether they had had any business dealings with the company.
