Riding the Real Estate Wave - New Website Gets BC Properties Internet and Media Exposure
Vancouver, October 26, 2009 - Timing is everything: CityRenters.com - a website that focused on Vancouver apartment rentals, was sold just before the arrival of Craigslist in the city in 2003. The second website, AssignmentsCanada.ca (AssignmentsCanada.ca), provided realtors with a forum to market their assignments when many developers refused to allow them to be listed on MLS. To capitalize on regular requests to feature resale and presale properties sent through the assignments site, BestHomesBC.com (www.BestHomesBC.com) was launched to coincide with the current real estate recovery.
"As the market continues to strengthen, it is essential for realtors and developers to have a strong Internet presence both for their brand and their properties-and BestHomesBC.com delivers this for them," says the founder, who has an IT and marketing background. "Properties listed on our websites achieve prominent page 1 Google ranking due to our intensive search engine optimization strategy and employment of social media."
She has become a go-to source for her perspective on Canada's and particularly Vancouver's real estate markets and trends with local and international media including the Daily Telegraph, Independent, Sunday Tribune, Homes Overseas, Location, Location, Location, and the Vancouver Sun, and has appeared live on CityTV, CFUN and CBC Radio to comment on real estate issues. An indication of the power of the press, hits would generally increase about 30 percent after an interview or story on a property or development.
"Honesty is more important than ever in marketing real estate," she says. "People can see through gimmicks. As a home buyer myself, I know what details people need to assess the variety of properties out there which is why BestHomesBC.com provides clear, concise information on all the property listing pages to make that decision process easier."
