Home Network Online, Domania.com Announce Co-Brand Relationship



DETROIT - April 12, 2000 - Home Network Online, a leading innovator in the for sale by owner (FSBO) real estate market, and Domania.com, a leading consumer education site for homeowners, buyers and sellers, today announced a co-brand relationship offering consumers accurate and broad real estate information free of charge. Through Home Network Online, homeowners can list their residence for a one-time fee until sold. This includes up to 12 photographs highlighting the amenities and most interesting features of the home as well as a personalized yard sign alerting buyers that information on the property is available via Home Network Online.

Domania.com is an independent site featuring a suite of tools that allow consumers to use comps (records of actual home sale prices), estimated home values based on historic trends, and property tax estimates to manage their homes as investments or to participate intelligently in any buying or selling transaction. "This co-brand relationship with Domania.com gives consumers using Home Network Online a variety of real estate pricing information to facilitate the home buying and selling process," said Mike Brennan, executive vice president and co-founder Home Network Online. "It will drive traffic to Home Network Online via web pages and search engines, and lends the site credibility as Domania.com is an investment of CMGI @Ventures."

Domania's flagship product, Home Price Check, is the largest, free online collection of home sales data with more than 21 million records covering approximately 75 percent of U.S. home sales, including 50 top metropolitan areas. Via Domania.com, consumers can instantly find the purchase price, selling dates and addresses of homes and condominiums. Consumers can search home sales records by: viewing the sales of homes on a specific street over a range of addresses, finding the previous sale price of a particular house, or comparing all homes sold within a certain price range in one location. In addition to Home Price Check, Domania.com will also provide a number of personalized tools for consumers to assess home equity and monitor tax assessments free of charge. "Consumers are constantly turning to sites such as Home Network Online to initiate home buying and selling searches, making online real estate one of the fastest-growing market sectors on the Internet," said Steven Kropper, president, Domania.com. "Domania.com gives home buyers and sellers all the information needed to make smart real estate decisions and this co-brand relationship strengthens that offering to consumers."
