RealestateVIEW strengthens its market position


22-Apr-2009


Today’s consumers are finding all their daily information online – particularly newspapers, products and services – and are more localised, focused and discerning than ever.


The success of realestateVIEW.com.au confirms this. Owned by the REIV and the real estate industry, it is the fastest growing property web site in Australia (and the only site to provide comparable rental information), with over 330,000 unique browsers monthly and more than 11 million page impressions, providing users with more qualified leads.


Now realestateVIEW.com.au has teamed with the Star News Group to help property buyers, sellers and renters connect with the real estate industry in Melbourne and surrounding areas.


The Star News Group is the biggest independent family-owned print media company operating in Melbourne and Geelong, boasting a roster of 20 community newspapers with a combined weekly circulation of more than ½ million copies.


realestateVIEW.com.au offers the very latest property search information and technology: sales data, mapping tools, stamp duty and loan repayment calculators, and links to finance companies, buyers' agents and valuers.

 
All realestateVIEW.com.au listings in the Star distribution area will feature on the Star’s own websites www.starrealestate.com.au and www.geelongproperty.com.au.

 
Together, realestateVIEW.com.au and the Star News Group offer real estate agents print, internet and data solutions and a combined online and print audience of over 1.4 million per month. Agents control their own marketing schedule with industry-controlled web site costs kept to a minimum.

 
Star Group publications have extensive localised reach of the target audience, provide extensive editorial support to agents and exceptional customer service through dedicated real estate advertising account managers.

 
With 80 per cent of Victorian agents Members of the REIV, and 70 per cent of Melbourne agents listed on realestateVIEW.com.au, the real estate industry is well placed to deliver timely, accurate and detailed information to consumers.
