New York, NY (1888PressRelease)
January 25, 2009 - IslandRealEstate announces encouraging business growth prior to upcoming first anniversary. www.IslandRealEstate.com has been specifically developed as an online island real estate marketing service for attracting regional, national and international clients.
Launched in the first quarter of 2008, IslandRealEstate is a Premier internet real estate portal for island properties with an initial focus on North America, Central America and the Caribbean. It is the portal’s primary intent to bring together prospective international renters and purchasers with the agents, brokers, owners and developers of island properties.
Having carved a special niche for itself in the island real estate realm, IslandRealEstate is dedicated to being the leading source for island-only real estate, including properties for sale and rent as well as fractionally owned properties and timeshare developments.
In a recent development the IslandRealEstate website has begun entering into referral agreements directly with property developers, primarily in the Caribbean, to market their exclusive developments. This will add over $1 billion in additional inventory. Under these agreements the developers will pay islandrealestate.com a referral fee, a fixed percentage of the price, for any buyers referred thru the site.
As of now the IslandRealEstate website has over 575 listed properties with a total value approaching $850,000,000 in addition to 100 rental listings. Moreover, a realistic estimate of the site’s growing popularity can be made from the fact that site visitors and page views over the last 30 days are 17,500 and 130,000 respectively from over 100 countries, with these numbers expecting to grow significantly over the first half of this year.
President and CEO, Mr. Albert Moura puts everything in a nutshell when he says, “The Company was founded with the primary purpose of providing a lower cost marketing service to meet the needs and expectations of real estate agents, brokers, developers and owners on an international basis who wanted to market their island properties to a global market.”
