The Real estate Board of Greater Vancouver has launches a new home listings site on its Realitylink.org platform.
The board has worked with Quebec firm Centris to create the modern listings portal with enhanced search and filtering capabilities.
It allows users to create a profile for saving searches, which can be listed as a list, gallery, or on a map. It shows MLS listings for homes in the Lower Mainland, Vancouver Island, and northern regions of BC.
“We designed the new Realtylink to help make home buyers more knowledgeable about the homes available for sale around our province,” says Brad Scott, REBGV CEO. “It’s a powerful tool based on proven technology. We’ll continue to work with our Centris partner to add features and data to improve and grow the site over time.”
The tech that drives the site means users will get the latest listings, as it updates every 20 minutes with data from the Greater Vancouver, Fraser Valley, Chilliwack, BC Northern, and Vancouver Island real estate boards.
The site also allows users to explore a home’s location through embedded Google Maps options and assess a home’s proximity to amenities through the Walk Score® rating feature.
