The Batavian is partnering with Rochester-based Property Source to launch a whole new way for finding and selling homes in Genesee County on a site run by Property Source under the brand ZagPad.com.
The new site will replace our housing link in our main navigation on July 15.
For the first time we will be able to offer our readers access through The Batavian to MLS listings and offer local agents great tools to feature their businesses and and their listings.
The site also features sections for rentals, home improvement and senior living.
We will also be managing the Wyoming County real estate site for ZagPad/Property Source.
We think the new site is going to offer both people looking for housing and the real estate community a set of tools and features that haven't truly been available locally before.
As Genesee County's #1 online news source, the #1 Web site of any kind locally, we are excited to bring the county one centralized, go-to place for real estate.
One of the things we liked about ZagPad is the platform gives us the opportunity to deliver to our local readers and advertisers a Genesee County-focused real estate Web site -- one that is tied into a regional network of real estate listings and media partners (such as WHAM13 and WHEC in Rochester and the Bee Newspapers in Erie County). This gives local users and advertisers the best of both worlds -- a local focus with a regional reach.
Real estate agents and brokers who need more information should call Lisa Ace at (585) 250-4118.
