“DotHomes is a real estate search engine—a “Google of property”. [1]
Consumers use DotHomes to quickly search over hundreds of estate agent Websites across multiple countries, with relevant search results taking consumers to property listings on these Websites. Underlying DotHomes’ search mechanism is a proprietary data-mining technology which allows for scalable and accurate indexing (aggregation) of property listings directly from estate agency Websites—with zero cost or effort for estate agents.
DotHomes offers a real alternative to the traditional directory Websites for real estate search (like RightMove, PrimeLocation and PropertyFinder). These Websites require that estate agents send in datafeeds of their property listings, and estate agents are charged a monthly fee for the privilege. DotHomes also offers an alternative to the new “mashup” Websites, which index only the directory Websites—and thereby do not link through to the original, potentially richer and more up-to-date property listings on the sourcing estate agent Websites.
For estate agents, DotHomes provides a free and effortless marketing platform. For house hunters, DotHomes provides the easiest and most transparent way to find properties on the Web.”

DotHomes.co.uk has an attractive interface. The site is easy to navigate and is clutter free. It is nice that DotHomes.co.uk provides different search options so that users can find exactly what they are looking for. The map feature are pretty cool, there is even a price map. Being able to save your search results is very useful so users can compare and contrast the listings they find.

Does DotHomes have any future plans of expanding outside of the UK? There could be a section that reviews real estates agents so that users can get an idea of who they want to work with.
