Realtor.ca (website formerly known as MLS.ca) has received mixed reactions since its launch. When a popular website changes their UI people always complain because it is ‘new and strange’. Now month later, we don’t see many bloggers complaining about the UI. Maybe they gave up or maybe they have moved onto the next story.

The HomeZilla team, since our redesign, hears lots of comments from people that they love our UI and our neighbourhood information. Occasionally, people tell me how they use Realtor.ca and HomeZilla side by side when house hunting. HomeZilla doesn’t provide house listings but we have all the Canadian neighbourhood information you will need. You can find the closest school, parks, restaurants and demographics information. Homezilla constantly adding data is part of our DNA so when you need to research a Canadian neighbourhood do a search on HomeZilla.

UPDATE

Realtor.ca Goes Mobile

Realtor.ca is has launched their new mobile version of the site. This is a huge advance for Realtor.ca and shows they are responding to new listing competitors (ZooCasa I am looking at you). How will the new Realtor.ca mobile site go over with consumers? Well, the HomeZilla team reviewed it and think it is the minimum they could have done for a mobile site. Lets hope this is a first step for Realtor.ca to make mobile searching much better.
