GOOD – I like the tags like method of filtering. It seems easier to work but there is one problem.

BAD – The tag with the highest number of properties is increased in font size based upon the results but if there are none in the list (ie. 6 bedrooms) then it should remove them from the available tags and have the others have 3 or 4 different font sizes based upon their results not just the two levels. . Leaving them insinuates that there are three bedroom. This means as you burrow down and filter them less and less tags appear , but all of them will further filter the list. Any of the tags that have been applied can be greyed out.. click on these would remove the filter.

GOOD – I do like how they have concentrated on providing the basics before they attach the bells and whistles… something myhome should have followed.

BAD – Also, using the word “search” again to refine the filters my be a bit confusing. A better use would be either “Refine” or “Apply Filters” or something like that.

BAD – They keep on trying to be slick with these interfaces but they miss some important stuff. About 15 to 20% of our visitors have higher screen resolutions. If you going to fully rewrite your site why not allow for small resizing of the property window so that the photos stack horizontally instead of vertically. This would mean visitors could view 4 properties at a time on the screen instead of two with less scrolling required. This whole area appears very bloated.

GOOD – They have a blog

BAD – Their blog has nothing about their site.

BAD – Recent Property Lists that show at time of day 10:32am that properties were listed 9 hours ago. I doubt all of those properties were listed at 1:30am by the agents. I suggest that was the time they imported them from domain.

GOOD – RSS Feeds by Suburb

BAD – RSS Feeds that you cannot apply the filters to the feed would have been even better. Only agents what to see every property for sale in the suburb.

In effect all they are is a front end for Domain and I really cant understand why Domain did the deal. They could have created something far better than this without the ongoing charges. I guess it just shows you how desperate they really are to catch REA.

Perhaps you might take a look at our service and our value proposition?

We value your thoughts.

Thank you and best wishes,
