News Corp’s REA Group and Move, Inc. have today launched a
global property network, delivering the world’s largest source of
global property listings to consumers.
The collaboration brings together REA Group’s online real estate
portals in Australia, Italy, Luxembourg, Germany, France, Malaysia,
Singapore, Hong Kong, Macau, Indonesia and Thailand,
and realtor.com®, a leading U.S. online real estate
destination operated by Move, Inc.
From today consumers in those markets have access to more than
three million listings from 56 countries1. The listings on the
global property network will be exposed to in excess of
200 million visits globally each month2.
The network
will soon include property content from News
Corp’s Mansion Global and India-based PropTiger, as well
as other partner sites around the world.
Robert Thomson, Chief Executive of News Corp said: “The
global property network being launched today demonstrates the power
of combining data across the News Corp digital real estate
portfolio, and provides further evidence that News Corp is the
largest digital property business in the world.
“By combining the listings - and the talent - of REA Group,
realtor.com®, and other partner sites, we are creating an
opportunity to enhance listings for consumers and customers around
the world, while enabling collaboration with News Corp’s existing
stable of real estate businesses and partners, including
Mansion Global and PropTiger. With more global properties than
any other source, it’s a capability that no competitor can
match. We are creating a whole new world of
property for consumers, and premium audiences on a global
scale for advertisers,” Mr. Thomson said.
Tracey Fellows, Chief Executive Officer, REA Group
said: “People love looking at property and now they
can have easier
access to international listings, whether they
are interested in a beach house in Jamaica, a warehouse in
Brooklyn, a villa in Thailand or even a castle in the French
countryside. We’re providing consumers with a way to explore
property around the world from the sites they already know and
trust.
“We’re continuing to build our offering by giving
consumers access to more than three million listings at
launch; this is the world’s largest source of global property,” Ms.
Fellows said.
Ryan O’Hara, Chief Executive Officer, Move, Inc. said: “This is
an important step forward in the evolution of real estate. We’re
part of a global community of international property sites that
enable people to search with confidence for real estate properties
and information all around the world.
“As the U.S.’s largest and most comprehensive source of for-sale
listings, we are delighted to be a formative part of this new
global collective as we expand our unmatched access through
technological innovation and enhanced cooperation across borders,”
Mr. O’Hara said.
From today, consumers who are looking for inspiration,
searching for investments, moving for work or education, wanting to
start a portfolio or simply dreaming, can explore the world of
property like never before.
