We all know the meaning of the term community; however it is in these past few years that the word has taken a larger significance because of the boom caused by the social media revolution.
According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, a community is “a group of people with a common characteristic or interest living together within a larger society”. In the end it all refers to an entity made by a group of people that somehow communicate and collaborate toward achieving a common goal or are bounded together by similar interests.
We can find communities in places like churches, schools, work, neighborhoods, etc., the main point here is that we as human beings like to be with other people and feel part of a group.
With the explosion of the internet we find that getting together with similar people is easier than ever, joining groups or discussion boards is just three clicks away. It is easy to find ourselves chatting with people from all over the world and obtaining valuable information.
Every community has to offer certain elements to make it run smoothly such as: providing enough tools to make it easier for members to form a bond and a strong connection to each other or to offer and facilitate the information sharing; but what is most important is to always give its members a sense of fun and discovery.
Sometimes these communities help people to gather as much information as possible before buying a product or hiring a service, just like the case of IWantAnOffer.com, the very first online community solely dedicated to the real estate industry in the United States.
IWantanOffer.com’s real estate community has achieved this and much more by creating a website where all the people interested in buying or selling any real estate can join and talk with other people interested, share information and create bonds between buyers, sellers and agents. It’s not just a place to put an ad of your house, but a place where you can interact with those people interested in your property and obtain feedback of your selling process. It’s a place where you can ask other people about the best places to live or even ask questions about remodeling your house, finding appraisers, etc. It’s a web site where anyone can obtain important advice before deciding upon purchasing a property.
Here at Sieena, we helped IWantanOffer.com develop this incredible web site, an online community for the real estate industry in the US.
We invite you to visit their website and give it a tour, who knows? You might end up buying something you like!
