Real Estate Industry Timeline

We want to give some kudos to HotPads for creating an interesting and useful way to keep track of the rapidly changing real estate industry. What’d they create? A interactive time line to browse through — displaying important product launches and announcements by companies serving the real estate industry dating back to 1995. The two oldest events are the 1995 launch of Craigslist (was it really that long ago?) and the launch of HomeRentals.net in 1997. We are humbled to have several of our announcements included as well. In the spirit of the greater good, Hotpads is asking the community to e-mail events that they have missed to timeline@hotpads.com for inclusion. Below is a screen shot of real estate’s most recent industry events:

Thus far 2007 looks a little bare, however, we are only 9 days into the year.  We will do our part to continue adding to this list in 2007!
