AltosXplorer: The First Real-Time Real Estate Data Web Application

Mountain View, CA (PRWEB) July 22, 2008 -- Altos Research, the premier resource for real-time real estate data, today announced AltosXplorer, the first rich internet application to let anyone analyze today's current real estate market conditions.

AltosXplorer is the newest product from the company that won the Inman News "Most Innovative Technology" award in 2007 for its real-time real estate data products. AltosXplorer is available today at the Altos Research real estate data (http://www.AltosResearch.com/real-estate-data) page.

Traditional real estate information is weeks or months old before it becomes available for even the most connected real estate professionals. Analyzing, charting, and communicating that data is an arduous task of database queries, spreadsheets, and email.

"Thousands of real estate professionals, investors, traders, and consumers leverage our unique real-time market information for insights every day," said Michael Simonsen, co-founder and CEO of Altos Research. "We've learned that our clients love our detailed market reports, but many have their own unique analytical needs. We built AltosXplorer to empower a whole new class of class of real estate problem solving."

AltosXplorer is the first rich internet application that enables users to:

1. Instantly query the vast Altos Research real estate database: Altos publishes hundreds of useful statistics covering nearly 10,000 zip codes around the country every week. AltosXplorer opens the massive 2 terabyte (2TB) Altos Research database to live queries.

2. Automatically chart local market trends: Just a few clicks to grab local market trend charts for your blog, emails, or unique individual analysis.

3. Quickly analyze today's conditions: Sift through mountains of statistics to compare local market opportunities, identify previously hidden trends, and make decisions.

4. Export the data: Easily save graphical charts and export historical data directly to your PC.

Need to compare investment opportunities in Tampa vs. Orlando? Or condo inventory trends in two Chicago neighborhoods? AltosXplorer can tell you in just a few clicks. In addition, AltosXplorer makes it simple to include the data and trend charts in your work-- whether preparing a detailed investment analysis, or blogging for your clients-- the answers are only a few clicks away.

"AltosXplorer is insanely cool," said Kris Berg, Broker Associate with Prudential California Realty "Real-time market data into my blog posts and to my clients - click, click, copy, paste. I love it when I can give my clients more and make my life easier." Kris blogs at San Diego Home Blog (http://www.SanDiegoHomeBlog.com).

AltosXplorer also makes available, for the first time, 16 market measures not available anywhere else. The Advanced statistics track, for example, the average percentage price changes of homes on the market and year over year changes in inventory and demand levels.
