Your Account: new version lauched today!

A major update involving hundreds of files has occured today on BTO under the Your Account tab. The new version we’ve been working on in the last weeks was available and bug-fixed at the end of the afternoon.

This is a big update and we’re very proud of it. It brings on some cool new features and a much clearer nav panel. We worked hard to make sure that every tool was available at the right spot since the older version was getting kind of messy…

What’s new?

  • New very cool dashboard
  • Organized navbar
  • Buyers’s feedback section
  • Your use of the tool meter
  • Organize your pictures update
  • Plus tons of contextual tips and advices

We really do hope you enjoy those changes and are able to start using the new section quite swiftly… Don’t hesitate to let us know if you encounter any problems!

Thanks a lot!

PS : Special thanks to Frank, Patrice P-L and Gui for todays rush!

Distance Calculator : New Gadget to help you find your next home

We’re launching today a new tool that will help you find the best property according to it’s location and the places you visit everyday!

Developed for a BleuBlancRouge ad campaign targetting the Montreal QC market, this new feature will be available to all Canadian customers in the search results. They will be able to calculate the distance between different addresses and the homes available on ByTheOwner.com

Why such a tool? Isn’t it interesting, and even essential, to know the distance between your future home and your office? Your child’s daycare? Mom’s home? That sure is a big factor that you need to consider. Even more with the gas prices these days!

Built using the Google Maps geocoding technology, this tool was developed pretty quickly during last weeks, so if you encounter any problems, or have suggestions, we’d like to know! Leave us comments using the box below so we can make this feature something you’ll enjoy using in your search!

Thanks!
