REALTOR BENEFITS® OFFER PROVIDES FREE TRIAL OF ENEIGHBORHOODS POWERSUITE MARKETING SOFTWARE

CHICAGO (September 25, 2007) — NAR REALTOR Benefits® Program partner, eNeighborhoods, a division of Dominion Enterprises, today announced a special open enrollment period that enables REALTORS® to try eNeighborhoods’ award-winning marketing solutions free for up to 60 days. The open enrollment period is now through the end of December. PowerSuite is an eight-in-one suite of real estate marketing tools to help real estate professionals create high-impact marketing materials, presentations and reports. PowerSuite was developed by real estate technology provider, eNeighborhoods.

PowerSuite features tools that target hard-to-impress buyers, a critical segment in today’s shifting real estate market.

PowerSuite solutions help homebuyers simplify their home search to make better comparisons and buying decisions. It’s the original software solution to build buyer loyalty and help prospects become homeowners.

And, with the ability to deliver their clients personalized marketing reports containing timely neighborhood, school and property information, REALTORS® will quickly recognize the tremendous value that comes with this product,” said Bob Goldberg, NAR senior vice president of marketing and business development, and head of the REALTOR Benefits® Program.

“Real estate professionals know the importance of guiding prospects through the buying process to become satisfied homeowners. But many of them don’t have a system to make that happen,” said Greg Robertson, eNeighborhoods general manager and vice president. “PowerSuite has proven tools to help build loyalty and guide buyers to a successful purchase, as well as seller-side tools like our full-featured CMA. We are very excited to offer REALTORS® a free trial of up to 60 days of PowerSuite real estate marketing tools during this limited time open enrollment period.
