April 21, 2011

EUGENE, ORE. – Joe Pettinella and Century 21 Alliance Group of Wappingers Fall, New York, have teamed with IDX, Inc. to deliver home seekers with a comprehensive and complete online property search experience. The IDX solution Pettinella now hosts has made it monumentally easier for home seekers to scan the Mid Hudson MLS (MHMLS) and find their dream home among the thousands of listings IDX Broker syncs to the website of Pettinella. The innovative IDX Broker software Pettinella has incorporated onto his professional real estate website has forever changed the way he conducts business and displays properties online.

Five unique search features – the basic, advanced, map, address and listing ID tools – allow potential New York buyers to narrow and focus their real estate search of the MHMLS listings quickly and easily on the IDX enabled website Pettinella hosts. The advanced tool lets home seekers specify the school district and subdivision in which they are interested. IDX Broker even gives buyers the option to sign-up for an account on the page of Pettinella, letting them save their detailed search guidelines for a later property search. Additional tools, such as the automatic email notifications, which alert buyers when homes they might be interested in become available on the MHMLS, further simplify and revolutionize the online real estate search Pettinella supports.

Through an administrative login page, Pettinella can access the tools he needs to truly customize every page and search capability on his website. He can personalize his CSS and global wrappers, in an effort to create a unique look and professional branding for his page, making it more recognizable throughout the online real estate market. IDX Broker gives Pettinella the ability to customize and control every aspect of his website from the convenience of his iPhone of iPad, with the IDX Broker application. Never before has it been so easy for agents and brokers, like Pettinella, to manage and monitor an online real estate solution.
