RISMEDIA, Feb. 21, 2007-Connecting Neighbors (www.connectingneighbors.com), a division of Reply! Inc., and a leading provider of online neighborhood marketing programs, announced its newest enhancement: MLS data integration. Through its partnership with 1parkplace Inc., Connecting Neighbors is now offering MLS data integration to new and current members in available areas. Community-relevant MLS data appears on the front page of the Neighborhood Web site and monthly newsletter, immediately engaging the consumer with photos of homes they will recognize.
The Neighborhood Web site is part of the Connecting Neighbors Marketing Program, which includes a Neighborhood Newsletter, personal Neighborhood Marketing Specialist and Quickshow multimedia presentations. Each Neighborhood Marketing Program is sponsored exclusively by a local real estate professional, known as the Neighborhood Expert. The addition of the MLS data to current Neighborhood Web sites provides continuously updated real estate information in compliance with each individual MLS's regulations.
"Partnering with 1parkplace to provide MLS data within Neighborhood Web sites nationwide offers valuable information to sponsors and residents," said Bill Miles, executive vice president of Connecting Neighbors, a division of Reply! Inc. "With continually updated data, it is sure to drive residents back to the site time and time again, providing increased branding for our Members. Integrating and displaying MLS data in this manner is on the cutting edge of real estate marketing."
The MLS data is available immediately in several markets throughout the country. Members in those areas may choose to add this enhancement, which displays local and even neighborhood-specific listings, on the Front and Local Real Estate pages of their Neighborhood Web site. Residents can view all the information about listings of interest, and check back daily for updates on homes for sale or recently sold homes. They may also sign up for a Free VIP Membership to receive additional information from the sponsoring agent.
"We are proud to support the Connecting Neighbors Neighborhood Web sites and Newsletters by providing up-to-date MLS information for consumers, as well as an important marketing venue for agents to acquire more business," said Steve Hundley, CEO of 1parkplace.
