With this new an innovative Internet Data Exchange (IDX) addition, Owen is able to display the most up-to-date listing information on the Danville, California real estate market, providing potential home buyers with the ability to browse even the finest property details, and all without ever being redirected from Owen's website.

Owen has access to her clients saved search information, via her own personal administrative login page, where she has the ability to not only get to know her clients on a more intimate level, but to also personalize the search experience for each individual, which is often lost when dealing with real estate online. She has the capabilities to view traffic reports, detailing which pages and listings on her site are most popular and are being viewed most frequently.

Five comprehensive search categories displayed for prospective home buyers browsing pleasure, enable them to narrow their search results, to as little or as much detail as they desire, in efforts to find a property the meets their every want, need and desire. The most unique of the search options is the map search. Powered by Google Maps, the map search allows home seekers to pinpoint their chosen property on an interactive road, terrain and/ or satellite map. They may then use this information to judge their relativity to close-by main roads, landmarks, malls, parks, convenience locations, school districts and other cities, to determine if this is truly a neighborhood they could envision themselves living, and eventually calling “home”.
