I don’t agree at all. The loopnet market is to competitive and over used. Google News just had a release of a new website EasterUc.com that has deal flow and since they are new it may be easier to find deals.

I agree completely. The map search tool is one their best features.

Have you checked out their dynamic map search? It is easily the best in the business for a commercial or residential site. I think you need to be a premium member to use it today.

Ronny,

I appreciate your feedback, but I said LoopNet was the best commercial real estate website, not the best website ever. It is very user-friendly and has offered tools for years that other sites claim to be new and inventive. I never said it was fast, but 4 or 5 seconds for information on commercial real estate is incredibly fast versus what you have to do to find info without LoopNet. Have you compared it to CoStar or City Feet? or the good-ol-boy network or commercial brokers?

Their database is large, users are rising and the site is simply better than the competition. I can live without it correcting my typos, as long as the layout, tools, and information remains at the highest quality.

I really don’t think LoopNet has a good usability. In contrast to what you’ve said the usability is rather bad. It takes very long (like 4 or 5 seconds) until it finds something when you search and it isn’t able to correct simple spelling mistages, e.g. when you type “San Jos” instead of “San Jose” it says it can’t find anything. That’s really poor if you ask me.
