Suspended, but not forgotten
what was homingCloud
Based on the theoretical analysis in in my disseration “Innovation, Concentration and the Residential Real Estate Brokerage Industry” in 1989 and spurred by the innovations in technology in the 2000’s, homingCloud was imagined in 2008/2009 as a real estate matching site. On Start-Up Alley at TechCruch NYC in 2010 and then launched at Demo in 2010, homingCloud lived on the internet til 2012.
PRN NEWSWIRE - SEPT. 14, 2010
homingCloud Delivers Long Overdue Innovation to the Real Estate IndustryWith user generated content and intelligent matching, homingCloud offers a low cost alternative to traditional brokerage in a social context.
SANTA CLARA, Calif., Sept 14 /PRNewswire/ -- DEMO Fall 2010 -- homingCloud, a New York-based technology startup, announced the launch of the first real estate social networking site. By connecting home owners directly with home seekers, utilizing an intelligent matching algorithm and enabling person to person conversations, the site provides a brokerage alternative to a client base that could exceed eight million users.
homingCloud stands poised to transform an industry that has seen little innovation over the years, even as the web has altered the flow of information across other facets of business. "Now that the internet is used in so many areas of people's lives, from investing, to shopping, to developing friendships, the time is right for challenging the broker monopoly of information," says Tina Fine, CEO of homingCloud.
homingCloud will launch offering three main components to empowering consumers in real estate. These include:
· Matching - an intelligent discovery engine which gives the site's members not only exact matches to their search parameters, but their next best matches as well. This underlying framework is used to generate personalized suggestions.
· Video - video capabilities allow users to show their properties or provide a personal message about their real estate needs, saving them valuable time.
· Messaging - private messages centered on posts provide an organized way to manage member's real estate interactions.
"It's an honor to attend DEMO Fall," said Fine "I am so excited to connect with people who are building innovative solutions. There is no doubt this is a world class stage for any product launch."
