Finding a home is now fast, easy and “smart” on local service
Spokane, WA - 06/25/09 - Searching for a home in the Inland Northwest – or anywhere in the nation – gets faster, easier and more fun today, with the addition of the Trulia real-estate search engine to www.spokesmanhomes.com, the online real-estate service of The Spokesman-Review.
Trulia helps home buyers find homes for sale and provides detailed information on real estate listings, price trends, crime statistics, median sales, and other indicators at the local level.
Trulia points consumers directly to listings on agent and broker Web sites, and it provides a wide range of data, including:
• market trends and neighborhood data
• real estate Q & A community
• "heat maps" that highlight neighborhoods by average home prices
• real estate "guides' with info on number of homes available, median sales prices per square foot and crime stats
• previous sale prices of homes, bank-owned listings, auctions and more
“Trulia adds multiple new dimensions to spokesmanhomes.com,” said Diane Bobiak, Classified Advertising Manager for The Spokesman-Review. “The addition of Trulia to our site means real-estate search has just gotten much smarter.”
“The folks behind Trulia are data hounds – they gather it, they sort it, note the trends and let users of the site ‘slice and dice’ it in lots of ways using quick, easy and user-friendly tools,” Bobiak added. “Even non-buyers will find features like the trend lines on median price-per-square foot and neighborhood crime statistics fascinating.’’
Trulia is the latest of several recent additions to spokesmanhomes.com. Home buyers searching spokesmanhomes.com can now also find feature stories on home improvement, advice from local lenders, Realtors, home stagers and other professionals, and a local real estate events calendar.
