Thank you for your comments above. Having been involved in the online real estate industry for 16 years, i am not surprised to hear the comments from some people. However, the reality, just as it was for news papers, the taxi industry and many many more industries is simple - things change and no matter how much wishful thinking there is for the "good old days", they will pass. So ... the reality is that in many countries around the world, portals are entering the transaction stream. They all start the same way, working with new homes developers and then moving to home and land packages. These are the easiest to sell and also have the highest margins. As the portals (and horizontals like gumtree) get to know more and more about their visitors (the consumers), they will be better able to match properties with buyers and eventually, the established home market will be targeted. It is just a matter of time. Simon Baker
