San Francisco, CA – August 5, 2010 – Zephyr Real Estate raised the bar in April with the launch of its new website, www.zephyrsf.com, and continues moving ahead with expanded video profiles of 48 San Francisco neighborhoods. The website features detailed neighborhood profiles that include market trends, descriptions, maps, demographics, properties for sale, and open homes for each of the 89 neighborhoods that comprise San Francisco, far outdistancing other websites of its kind. At launch, 20 of the profiles included a narrated video highlighting the unique character and style of each neighborhood.
Today, Zephyr announced that 28 additional neighborhoods have been augmented with videos, placing Zephyr, once again, at the forefront with more local neighborhood videos than any other brokerage in San Francisco. “Zephyr is all about San Francisco, and we’ve honed our local expertise to give buyers more than just a basic overview of the property,” said Randall Kostick, Chief Operating Officer, Zephyr Real Estate. “Lifestyle and neighborhood are important factors for many people, and we wanted to provide the most comprehensive information to aid our clients in their home purchase decision.” The “Explore San Francisco Neighborhoods” page on the site has an interactive map that serves as the launch point to the 89 San Francisco neighborhood profiles. Noe Valley, Pacific Heights, Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights, Bernal Heights, Potrero Hill, South of Market, Inner Mission, Hayes Valley, St. Francis Wood, West Portal and 38 other neighborhoods now feature video profiles.
Zephyr is on target to have a video profile of every San Francisco neighborhood by year’s end. In addition to videos, detailed maps, statistics, and a robust property search, visitors can sign up for a free MyZephyr account to gain access to additional MLS information previously unavailable to the general public. Registered users can search sold and pending properties, save favorites, track a property’s value, receive price change updates and get new listing email alerts. “We launched our new website in April, but that doesn’t mean our work is done,” said Melody Foster-Brown, Director of Marketing. “We’re committed to ongoing development to evolve, improve and expand the overall experience for our clients and our agents.” About Zephyr Real Estate Founded in 1978, Zephyr Real Estate is San Francisco’s largest independent real estate firm with approximately $1 billion in annual gross sales in 2009 and a current roster of more than 200 full-time agents.
