Just in Time for the Spring: HomePages.com Spruces Up

KIRKLAND, WA - HomePages.com, the nation’s most complete online home buying and selling site, announced major new enhancements for the home buying season.

Originally introduced 18 months ago as the first and only national home buying and selling service to combine comprehensive MLS listings in most major markets with aerial maps and in-depth neighborhood information on one Web site, HomePages.com now extends its leadership position with even more home buying, selling and mortgage information, larger photos of homes for sale, 100% aerial mapping coverage and a clean, easy-to-use design.

“HomePages.com is the one national real estate site that provides home buyers and sellers with everything they need -- from comprehensive MLS listings to aerial photos of every neighborhood in America, to recent home sale information and extensive neighborhood and business information -- all in one place,” said Ian Morris, CEO of HouseValues, which operates HomePages.com. “We’ve made it easier for consumers nationwide to find precisely the information and tools they need throughout the home buying and selling process.”

Morris said many of the enhancements came directly from consumer feedback and suggestions. New features include:

-- Access to more than 1.5 million MLS home listings in most of the
nation’s major real estate markets, with many new markets being added in
the coming weeks
-- More and larger photos of homes
-- Fast and easy navigation between homes for sale, recently sold homes,
neighborhood information, and integrated mapping tools
-- Aerial mapping from MSN Virtual Earth across 100 percent of the United
States, including bird’s-eye, 360-degree imagery in several major markets
-- Dozens of expert articles about every aspect of buying, selling,
financing, and owning a home
-- Access to top real estate professionals, including innovative click-to-
call technology that enables consumers to contact an agent directly via
phone and get real time answers to all of their real estate questions
