Why do I need a website?
The real estate business is changing rapidly. Internet users are doubling
every year and buyers and sellers are going online for services. You can not
afford to be left behind. Not only do you need a website, but your website must
be professional and promoted properly with the various search engines and
directories. My Real Estate 2000 allows you to quickly get your site up with
powerful features your customers will appreciate.
What will my website address (domain) be?
We can help you register the name of your choice for the site. Most agents
select their last name or a combination of first and last name. Companies can
experiment with different text that matches their company name. We can quickly
apply a domain name you are already using to your new My Real Estate 2000 powered
website. Use this link to check if a name is available - click
here.
How long does it take to get my site online?
In most cases we get your website online in 24 hours. We just need you to submit an
online request and sign/fax a
simple license agreement that promises you will not share and make copies of the
software. We will need your hosting account information to publish the
site and complete your set up. Once your site
is loaded, it is ready for your personal input to set up all your pages.
Remember, with My Real Estate 2000 you are your own webmaster and have complete,
easy control over your web site.
How do I make changes to the Website?
You can make immediate changes 24 hours a day directly through your Password
Protected Administration page. The Admin section of your web site enables you to
go online and modify almost everything in your website. All you need is an
Internet connection and a browser like Internet Explorer or Netscape. You do not need any
computer expertise to make changes. Any changes you make to your pages are
instantly saved and visible to the world. No messy FTP or hard to use software.
My Real Estate 2000 was designed to be easy to use without compromising its
power and functionality.
How do I get my photos/logos loaded onto my web pages?
All graphic files (.JPG, GIF, BMP) can be be uploaded from your computer to
the website. Our system will prompt you for the computer location of the file.
If you have hard copies of your photos, we can scan them in for you after receiving them by mail.
Can I keep my current E-mail address?
Yes, all Contact Forms will be sent to an email address of your choice. What
is E-mail forwarding? An e-mail alias, is a means to provide you with an e-mail
address that directly complements your Web address (domain name). For example, if
your address was RealEstate.com, you could set up your e-mail alias as mary@realestate.com.
Your e-mail alias would automatically be forwarded to your existing e-mail
account, where you would read it as usual. Another advantage of using an e-mail
alias is the freedom it affords you if you ever consider changing e-mail
accounts. As long as you do not change your e-mail alias, you wont have to worry
about reprinting business cards!
Do all the sites powered by
My Real Estate 2000 look the same?
No. All of the sites have the same functionality, but each site is
personalized with your selected color scheme, and complete choice of our stock
banners and photos or your custom images. Unlike other sites where you can only
make limited changes, our system allows you to change over 95% of all text and
photos on all the pages. You can take a look at some art samples here.

Developer Plan which is very reasonably priced at $13.00/month that's
perfect for a medium sized real estate company. Keep in mind you don't

priced service that you don't need. Be sure and let them know you need a My
Real Estate 2000 Hosting Site, and they will know exactly what to do for
you! We have used HostMySite.com
