Real Estate Market Data Company Surpasses 1,000 Mark For Number Of Property and Neighborhood Datasets Available To Brokers And Agents
SAN DIEGO (PRWEB) May 02, 2018 -- The real estate market data company Home Junction Inc. reported it now has more than 1,000 property and neighborhood-related datasets that brokers and agents can add to their websites to provide information on their local markets.
Home Junction is a national aggregator of real estate data and geographic boundaries. It currently provides brokers and agents with hyper-local data on school districts, school attendance zones, municipal boundaries, demographics, crime statistics, cost of living indices and much more.
The property and neighborhood datasets cover just about every piece of data about homes in a specific area and the community.
That data is gathered from public records, MLS listings and other sources.
"Our goal is to be able to provide brokers, agents, banks or other businesses with the ability to add this incredible amount of data to their own website. They can truly become the entity with the most local knowledge," said Ed Kim, Senior Vice President with Home Junction. "Home buyers want to know this detailed neighborhood information but don't have the time and resources to find it on their own. Now, a local real estate agent has the ability to provide it to them."
In addition to the standard square footage, number of beds and bathrooms, etc., the Home Junction property data covers such details as:
- Municipal boundaries
- School district boundaries
- Recent home sales
- Trends in home prices
- Parcel numbers
- Tax assessed value
- Property attributes
- Zoning codes
- New construction
- Utilities usage
- Points of interest
- Flood zone maps
- Comparable sales in the area
And much, much more
With its proprietary "Slipstream" technology, Home Junction has developed a Real Estate Data API (Application Programming Interface) which is essentially a few lines of code that a broker or agent can easily embed into their website.
The data feeds can then be customized down to the county level, zip code, township, block group, neighborhood and even to the subdivision level.
Home Junction has a full complement of location filters to parcel the data to specific areas or neighborhoods. In fact, the company provides a search function so consumers can limit the search results to an specific area with a powerful geospatial polygon filter.
Home Junction also provides detailed datasets for other critical factors involved in a home search. For example, there are dozens of datasets for local school data.
That school database includes:
- School attendance zones
- Types of schools
- Student enrollment
- Student/teacher ratios
- Student demographics, eg male/female ratios, etc.
- School contact information
"When you combine this property and neighborhood data with our other in-depth datasets such as school data or real estate demographic data, a broker or agent can provide a very detailed picture of a community," said Kim. "This allows a broker or agent to be able to answer every question a home buyer might have about a property."
Home Junction also incorporates much of this property and neighborhood data in their Home Value Estimator Tool. This tool enables consumers to request a report on the estimated value of their home or another property. The home value estimator also provides comparisons to other properties in the area based on square footage, price per square foot, age of the property, and other factors.
Kim pointed out these datasets provide a helpful resource for social media marketing. Brokers and agents can post current real estate market trend data to attract followers and likes. For example, an agent can provide a link back to their website with a chart on the number of home sales in a particular city, neighborhood or zip code.
Adding all this local content also helps with search engine optimization for keyword rankings on Google and Bing.
"One of the big advantages of our data products is that a local real estate company can now offer just as much hyper-local information as the large real estate portals," said Kim. "However, in this case, the local company can use that resource to attract their own leads, create a better user experience and promote their website as the place to go for all relevant real estate market data."
