Point2 Agent Launches New Features Welcoming Homebuilders

New home builders, the most long-neglected segment of the real estate industry in terms of technological advancement, finally have been offered a solution. Point2 Technologies, using the powerful Point2 Agent software as a foundation, has introduced a specialized suite of features specifically designed for the homebuilding industry.

Using the Point2 Agent system, new home builders will be afforded the opportunity to profit from the same caliber of online exposure as other real estate professionals have come to enjoy. Homebuilders will now have access to their very own website, website editing tools, and a multitude of marketing features that allow them to expose their development properties to a larger audience.

The concept is simple: homebuilders have been invited to join the Point2 Agent Network, which consists of over 40,000 real estate professionals. By joining together through the Point2 Agent Network, builders and agents are able to market their homes far more effectively.

The integration of new online advertising functionality such as Builder Handshake™ allows agents and builders to create advertising relationships with each other. Builder Handshake™ generates immediate exposure for homebuilders by allowing them to effortlessly advertise their 'new home' and 'under construction' properties on thousands of Point2 Agent websites. Existing agents simply need to agree to display new homes on their website and in seconds their sites expose online visitors to a variety of pre-owned and new homes.

As more builders join the Community, not only will builders and agents benefit from the relationships created, but more importantly, online buyers visiting Point2 Agent websites will be able to take advantage of an infinite number of listings.
