Giving you the valuable Real Estate information you need to make informed decisions. HomeFinder.ca was created by Metroland Media (connected to most local and daily newspapers) to support our Real Estate Clients, who have used our print products for years and to offer a Real Estate on-line component to the consumers that use us as a trusted source when shopping or looking for just about anything.
An estimated 80% of Canadians begin their search for a new home on the Internet. Finding a new home is a major life decision. HomeFinder.ca employs some of the latest technologies to help people personalize their search for property in Southern Ontario. Combining customization functionality including flexible search parameters with advanced mapping technologies, users can gain deep insight about properties, homes, neighbourhoods and cities before even speaking with an agent. The premise of the site is to enable users to search for homes in a way that is intuitive to them. As a result, all functionality is geared to personalizing the user experience - familiar terminology for neighbourhoods and geographic boundaries, search diversity for listings and neighbourhoods, intuitive search results and the ability to review both demographic and behavioural data. Homefinder.ca includes a mortgage calculator, current rates, and useful links to make it as easy for the consumer as possible. The site is also designed to maintain a collaborative approach with users. Constantly evolving, HomeFinder.ca will continuously elicit feedback from users and will introduce new functionality and technology capabilities based on user demand.
