 Print Article

RISMEDIA, Nov. 19, 2007-In keeping with the company’s reputation for cutting-edge technology, John L. Scott Real Estate chairman and CEO, J. Lennox Scott, announces the launch of two enhancements to his company’s Web site www.JohnLScott.com. The first is the launch of John L. Scott Home Services, an online resource where consumers can connect and upgrade home utilities and services. The service is provided in partnership with WhiteFence, an online marketplace for utilities and home services.

“Dealing with home services can be time consuming and confusing,” said Scott. “But the John L. Scott Home Services Web site makes it simple and can save our clients hours of precious time when moving into a new home.”

The services that are offered include connection of gas/electricity, cable/satellite TV, and local and long distance telephone service. Visitors to HomeServices.JohnLScott.com can also compare the prices of competing service providers, upgrade existing service packages, and make a change of address with the U.S. Postal Service.

“Our goal is to provide the best possible experience through all phases of homeownership, including moving,” said Scott.

John L. Scott has also launched an enhancement to its interactive mapping tool. Now, visitors to John L. Scott’s Web site can view sold home information right along side homes for sale. According to the company, John L. Scott originally launched comparable sold property information in 2006 which appeared on its own mapping interface, but with this latest enhancement, consumers can view all homes for sale as well as those that recently sold on one interactive map.

“Consumers no longer have to view two separate maps to access sold property information and current inventory for sale,” said Scott. “By having all of this information viewable on one map, we’re providing comprehensive property information in one convenient place.”
