OneMove Launches First-ever Free Multiple Listing Style Service in the United Kingdom
CSE - Canadian National Stock Exchange
VANCOUVER, Oct. 24 /CNW/ - OneMove Technologies Inc. (formerly Interlude Capital Corp.) (the "Company") (TSX-V: OM) announces that its UK subsidiary, One Move Limited ("OneMove"), the provider of personal moving services in England and Wales, has launched its property portal, which immediately became the single largest residential property portal in England and Wales. The service, which is free to the homebuyer, went live October 19, 2006 on OneMove's web site (www.onemove.com). Until now, the marketplace has been fractured into numerous portals which list only their specific properties. For the first time there is a centralized location where consumers can search and view real estate listings throughout England and Wales, similar to the Multiple Listing Services(R) in North America. The new "Find a Property" service showcases ALL of the properties currently advertised on every major property portal, including Rightmove, Look4aProperty, Primelocation, fish4homes, FindaProperty, propertyfinder.com, Thinkproperty.com, and PrimeMove, as well as the properties offered from many of the UK's leading estate agents, including Foxtons and the PropertyPro network. "The OneMove portal is going to change the way that people look for property online, and as a result, we are confident that the service will alleviate a lot of the stress and hassle that today's house-hunters are facing," says Neil Patel, CEO, OneMove Ltd.. "Why should consumers log on to five or six different sites, only to forget which property they saw where? With our Find a Property service, homebuyers can view all of those same properties - and more - on just one site." The OneMove site is continually updated and currently lists over 800,000 properties throughout England and Wales. Unlike other listing services that charge realtors monthly fees to advertise, realtors are able to upload all of their properties to OneMove's portal free of charge when they join the OneMove network. Consumers visiting the OneMove web site are prompted to enter parameters into the search engine specifying the type of property sought, the desired location, and the customer's price range. OneMove's services include providing the homebuyer with a Personal Moving Consultant ("PMC") who coordinates the entire process, transaction, and subsequent move-in process. From finding a solicitor through hooking up the utilities, OneMove's PMCs keep customers up to date with all the latest developments regarding the status of their transaction via an e-mail, text message to their mobile, or message to a BlackBerry(R) handheld device - provided to customers as part of the OneMove service. OneMove's system keeps the client up to date with important information categorized into key milestones and instant alerts.
