AqarMap.com, the regional online real estate marketplace that was launched a few months ago, and that enables users to search for houses, apartments and land based on location, through satellite maps, has launched a new version.
According to numbers from AqarMap, they’ve grown quite well over the past few months, reaching a number of over 600 registered Real Estate companies and brokers, who are using the service and posting their properties on it.
The new version of the site aims to bring improved usability and more features for the users. The interesting thing is that all the enhancements and features in this new version were built on ideas and features requested by the early adopting users and clients of AqarMap, which makes it pretty much a crowd sourced effort.
Most of the improvements were centered around search and quick access to information. Adding listings has also become much easier, with a better guided process in place, and the possibility to add virtual tours in the listings using YouTube videos.
Another new development is that from now on sellers can add their listings in their preferred language, and the system automatically translates the content so it can be displayed in the buyer’s preferred language.
well, the competition started, there are other similar projects such as http://www.makanoo.com and betakonline.com
