Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) November 13, 2007 -- The REALTORS® Land Institute (RLI), the National Association of REALTORS® commercial affiliate exclusively dedicated to professionals who broker, lease, sell, develop and manage land, and SecondSpace, Inc., a leading Web services company that powers LandWatch.com, ResortScape.com and other lifestyle-oriented websites, today announced that they have signed a strategic agreement to better serve consumers searching for land across the Web.
"We continuously strive to promote land professionals by offering premier services and opportunities to our members," said John A. McAllister, Accredited Land Consultant (ALC) and national President of the REALTORS® Land Institute. "The Internet has become a powerful and mandatory tool to help us accomplish that mission. We are extremely excited to be launching this new partnership with SecondSpace, creating new exposure for RLI members and ALC designees on LandWatch.com, and enabling them to grow their businesses by connecting with a broad range of consumers across the Web."
RLI is partnering with SecondSpace's LandWatch.com website to showcase thousands of property listings and land use professionals, enabling buyers from across the U.S. and around the world to connect with a broad network of real estate agents and brokers specializing in land sales, development and leasing. As a benefit of RLI membership, members will be able to post their land listings directly to LandWatch.com at a discounted monthly fee.
