Condo.com and Terra Networks signed a partnership agreement to launch a bilingual real estate website. Bienesraices.terra.com, the co-branded website, features a Spanish language condo marketplace designed for real estate buyers and developers from Latin America, Spain and Hispanics in the United States. The companies hope 10 percent of the website visitors will be from Spain, 50 percent from Latin America and 40 percent from the United States.
English dominant visitors to the website will also find a small news section and blog at the bottom of the page. Visitors to Condo.com have the option of searching in English or Spanish.
The co-branded site will be promoted on Terra.com’s network of sites. Project marketers plan to promote the site on the web and in print. Eleven of the top 16 markets listed on the website are in the Caribbean and Latin America: Argentina, Barbados, Belize, Brazil, California, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Las Vegas, Mexico, Miami, New York, Panama, Puerto Rico, Uruguay, Texas, and Venezuela.
