Realestate.com.au have today launched a portal www.property.com.au to openly test new technologies. This new site is property data only (yes minus advertising) and has all of the property data that realestate.com.au has, although I have been warned that it is a beta site so performance may vary.
Other portals will obviously find this of supreme interest and may fast-track similar developments that they find useful. The site has been quoted as being a blocker for MyHome, but really I don’t see this being the case.
One may argue that it may be better to go to this site than realestate.com.au if there is no advertising on the site and from the screen shots I have seen there isn’t.
Look for this site to be live around midday today….I will then have more time to asses the site and give my opinion…
