Enormo.com: Real Estate Site Goes Global
Real estate search sites are a place for anyone with even the remotest interest in buying a house or condo to waste countless hours evaluating options.
And now the temptation will be even stronger now that Enormo is on the scene. OK, OK, it sounds like a bad sci fi movie title, but Enormo is a monster of an addiction -- though a delightful sort of friendly monster like a purple dinosaur or a blur brontosaurus.
Offering property listings in 50 countries, Enormo has to be the most broad based real estate listing anywhere. The site is very easy to use, and the listings themselves are attractive and very informative.
Here's they describe themselves:
Enormo is the world’s largest property portal, with listings in over 50 countries. We’ll help you find a property wherever you are, or wherever you’re looking to go. We’re not an estate agency and we don’t recommend properties. Instead, we bring you the best of the web by aggregating millions of properties from just as many estate agents and property websites.
Enormo started from humble beginnings in late 2006. One, two, three, and four million properties later, we’re now the largest property listings website in the world.
The site naturally supports itself through real estate listing fees. Having now listed 4 million properties since 2000, I would expect that they are supporting themselves very well indeed. There are other global property concerns out there, but this one seems far less focused on super high end offerings, which bdes well for reach and revenue.
Enormo is based in Barcelona, and backed by Mangrove Capital Partners in Luxembourg.
Thanks for reading, and don't forget to write.
