Localblox.com connects local residents with other local residents, businesses, services, events and community information on a single platform. Realtors can personally connect with individuals within their community by writing on the community wall, responding to open inquiries, and attending and reviewing local community events. Agents can become Community Ambassadors and establish themselves as the go-to authorities in a particular community. It provides a unique opportunity for real estate agents to truly engage with their neighbors and beyond. The site is currently in beta and has around 50,000 neighborhoods so far, and users can add more themselves. Localblox.com also offers free online business advertisements as well as other options for mobile ads and social media packages. Localblox.com is poised to offer a one-stop shop for localized social networking that could prove very useful to the real estate sector.
