Estately Real Estate Search Introduces Online Property Search Collaboration Tools Consumers Can Share Their notes, favorites and searches

SEATTLE, WA -- Estately has introduced online collaboration tools to make it easier for home shoppers to let their friends and family participate in their home search.

Consumers can use the Seattle, Washington based real estate search website's new tools to share notes on hundreds of thousands of homes for sale and to see what properties their friends and family are saving. Consumers can see all of their friends and family's feedback on a property in one place. (http://www.estately.com/)

"Very few of our customers are searching for a home alone. Whether it is their spouse, their mom, their best friend or their Realtor who they are collaborating with, people want feedback on homes in their price range and they want to share their short list with each other." said Galen Ward, (top left photo) co-founder of Estately.com. "People searching for real estate haven't had a good way to collaborate on their home search until now."

Consumers can also make their My Estately page public with the click of a button and invite anyone, from blog readers to MySpace friends, to see their saved homes and notes at a convenient url. A sample page can be seen at Estately.com/users/sample.
