John L. Scott Real Estate Launches Social Networking Experience
Buying a home is not an individual activity; there are usually several people involved in the process from family and friends to real estate agents. JLSconnect utilizes Microsoft Live ID as a gateway to the growing ecosystem of social networking services and augments the John L. Scott Property Tracker service to provide increased customer value during the process of shopping for a home.
With Property Tracker and JLSconnect, consumers can sign in on JohnLScott.com, save homes as a favorites list, and then easily share those favorites with others. You also have the ability to see others' favorites lists that you have been invited to view, and can post and view comments on individual properties in both your own and others' favorites lists. Also within JLSconnect you can see which of your contacts are online through integration with Windows Live Presence and even initiate a Windows Live Messenger session to collaborate with them at any time.
Take your home search to the next level with more powerful features and social networking! Link your Windows Live ID to your Property Tracker account and get connected.
- Invite friends to join your online home search
- Save, categorize and rate favorite properties
- Post comments to friends
- Experience a more powerful map search

Scott.com - Being one of the areas MOST trafficked real estate resources, it makes total since to have these social network conveniences right at your fingertips when shopping for homes.
