Point2 Technologies Launches Rental Real Estate Marketing And Lead Management Software Platform

Point2 PropMan Designed to Increase Property Manager Productivity and Facilitate Rental Listing Marketing for Point2 Broker and Point2 Agent Users

Saskatoon, SK and Vancouver, BC – November 08, 2006 – Point2 Technologies Inc. (“Point2”) today launched Point2 PropMan, a rental real estate online marketing and lead management software platform targeted at property management organizations worldwide. The new platform is designed to help property managers enhance the quality of listing presentations online, maximize Internet exposure and leads, automate lead management and incubation, and increase conversion to sales.

“The rental market presents a natural, significant growth opportunity for Point2,” said Brendan King, Chief Operating Officer, Point2 Technologies. “We’re building on the same technology and expertise that have made the Point2 Agent platform the solution of choice among real estate professionals, to offer to property managers and their local agents meaningful productivity and time to market advantages, and help them to maximize exposure and differentiate their listings online.”

Point2 PropMan allows property managers to publish up to 36 photos per listing, add extensive details, descriptions, area maps and neighborhood information on a high-end, search engine optimized easy to use Point2 website.

The system also offers advanced lead capture and incubation capabilities, allowing users to more effectively manage multiple consumer inquiries and leads, and to be more responsive to hot leads when away from their office, through Point2’s proprietary, built-in wireless text messaging alert system, Point2 RealAlerts™.

Point2’s proprietary Handshake™ technology also allows Point2 PropMan users to automatically advertise listings on a wider scale. By cooperating with local real estate brokers and agents who use the Point2 Broker and Point2 Agent platforms, property managers can instantly publish listings on their Point2 websites as well, seconds after listing the property on their own site.

“Another key purpose behind Point2 PropMan is to make it easier for our existing Point2 Broker and Point2 Agent members to participate in the rental segment. With a single push of a button, they can now capture rental listing content onto their Point2 site, directly from property managers they cooperate with, saving both parties valuable time and effort while helping to get listings on the market more quickly,” added King.

Census and industry statistics indicate there are approximately 36 million rental properties in the United States. One third of U.S. residents today live in a rental residence, and over 65 percent of consumers today rely on the Internet to research rental homes and apartments.

To accommodate rental listings, the Point2 Broker and Point2 Agent platforms have now been configured to allow for a ‘Rental’ section. Users can easily add the section to their website, through their Point2 Online Office interface.
