FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

June 22, 2009

EUGENE, ORE. – Using customized and innovative software from IDX, Inc., Rhonda Vitale of 34 North Properties, has customized the search function of her website, providing potential home buyers with an easier and more personalized online property search experience. This Internet Data Exchange (IDX) software extracts information from the Western Upstate MLS (UMLS) for use by consumers visiting the site, and integrates it into the 34 North's page, supplying consumers with the latest property listing information and details on the Anderson, South California real estate market.

MLS listings are automatically updated each day on Vitale's website, eliminating the time and hassle that she would normally have to spend inputting or editing listings to reflect the most recent changes, if she hadn't integrated this IDX Broker software onto her site. An administrative control panel is provided to Vitale, allowing her to see statistics on the MLS, as well as the number of daily page views and site traffic reports. Custom CSS and global wrappers can be controlled through the dashboard, allowing her to maintain a unique branding throughout each listings page, so that even when prospective home buyers are searching the MLS, it appears as though it is a seamlessly integrated part of Vitale's website.

Each IDX Broker feature is completely customizable, enabling Vitale to develop a website to best reflect her personality, as well as comply to her clients wants and needs. Unique search tools are supplied to home seekers, including an advanced search, where the client can specify anything from school district to the heating/ cooling system, a map search powered by Google maps, pinpointing their relativity to main roads, landmarks, and other cities, and even the option to receive email alerts, based on previous search criteria. All of these features are designed to help simplify, organize and speed up the online real estate for consumers.
