The Realtor is John L. Scott Real Estate, one of the early implementers of Microsoft Virtual Earth for its business. (The company originally used ESRI and Google technology for its mapping.) Scott acquired nine person Real Tech, the consultancy that did the implementation work this week….
Real Tech will evolve into John L. Scott’s exclusive in-house technology provider.
Some reason this caught my eye, thought it was odd for a realtor to have an in-house IT shop, especially buying a small consultancy lock stock and barrel. Guess this was cheaper than contracting the work, but you have to keep them busy
