Cross-Country Road Trip Brings Real Estate Blogging Mainstream, Heightens Consumer Awareness

RISMEDIA, July 6, 2007—Condo.com, an online condo marketplace, announces its sponsorship of the Sellsius Blog Tour USA as it travels around the country and makes a stop in Miami, home of Condo.com, from July 8-9, 2007.

The tour lends support from leaders in the real estate industry who are spreading the word to consumers and real estate professionals about the benefits of connecting online through the rapidly-growing real estate blogosphere.

Local expert and Condo.com CEO, Richard Swerdlow, will be on hand for live interviews, blog sessions and Q&A when the 25’ RV rolls into the area – offering insight and advice about what’s going on in the South Florida real estate market.

The tour will arrive at The Mayfair in Coconut Grove, Florida on Sunday, July 8, kicking off two days of education and exploration. The RV will continue its Miami visit Monday with podcasts and virtual tours showcasing several high-end projects and properties currently listed on Condo.com as the RV roams the city – encouraging the community to get involved. Miami is one of many major real estate markets the cross-country road trip will visit before ending at the much anticipated First Annual Blogger Connect conference in San Francisco held by Inman News.

According to Swerdlow, “buyers and users are turning to the blogosphere more frequently for unbiased and honest answers.”

The recently launched Condo.com Community, a social networking platform and listing service, encourages social networking and blogging as a way to share information about all things real estate.

“Whether chatting about new listings, market conditions, trends or how to find a contractor in a specific area, we believe blogging adds tremendous value and benefit to those in need of real estate advice,” continued Swerdlow.
