May 15th: Listingbook in the NEW YORK TIMES, again.

As Listingbook gains more recognition across the country, the stories and unsolicited customer testimonials are growing as well. We think that they speak for themselves.

Listingbook was again featured in The New York Times on Friday, May 15 in an article titled, My New House? I Met It Online.

The article states:

“A Web tool that enables agents to include up to 30 photos along with each listing, Listingbook offers virtual tours and 360-degree views. Agents issue the client a password allowing access to the site; they can then provide him or her with an update via e-mail on price reductions and new listings, explained Caryn Balamaci, a broker with Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in Scarsdale.”

She continued by talking about one of her clients whom she set up on Listingbook:

“In general, she added, the younger the clients, the more Web-savvy they are. As an example of typical clients, she cited John Hayes, an investment banker, and his wife, Michelle, a special education teacher, who live in a one-bedroom rental apartment in the Riverdale section of the Bronx with their 8-month-old daughter, Madison. Crowded in their current quarters, they are looking for a three- or four-bedroom house in either Westchester or Connecticut.”

“Each morning at 6, Mr. Hayes tends to the baby and searches the Web for a house, reading Ms. Balamaci’s morning e-mail alerts on Listingbook.”

“He continues online shopping throughout the day and stays in constant touch with his agent by e-mail and by phone.”

We never get tired of hearing how Listingbook is changing the way agents do business with their customers…. we look forward to sharing many more stories and testimonials with you!
