REI Wise Releases Strikes Partnership with Louisiana REALTORS

NEWPORT BEACH, CA - August 15, 2006 - REI Wise and Louisiana REALTORS today announced a new partnership to bring investment analysis and marketing software to Louisiana REALTORS members statewide. REI Wise offers superior analysis and marketing tools to agents and brokers involved in real estate investments. The easy-to-use software requires the user to simply enter data about an investment opportunity. The software will then run a complete twenty-year financial analysis and produce fully branded marketing materials.

“It is an exciting step to reach the professionals in the Louisiana REALTORS Association and assist them in building their business. Our goal is not only to bring the right tools to realtors, but also to make those tools easy to use and understand,” said John D. Freyder, CEO of REI Wise. “Louisiana REALTORS has a very strong, and rapidly growing, commercial segment, and its membership can gain a lot of productivity from this software.”

REI Wise professional products analyze investment properties and produce full marketing packages with the click of a button. The extended marketing capabilities found in these products include maps, aerials, property description and photos.

“REI Wise is the ideal partner because its software is best positioned to benefit our members,” said Kevin Calbert, Vice President, Marketing & Member Services. “Institutional analysis products are often too complicated and spreadsheets are unprofessional. REI Wise offers different products designed for residential, multi-family and commercial investments. And the software is incredibly easy-to-use.”

REI Wise will offer both its commercial and multi-family investment analysis and marketing software to Louisiana REALTORS’ members at a discounted rate.

REI Wise currently partners with a number of large organizations and companies within the United States. It is the industry leader in web-based solutions that offer the scalability required for such partnerships.

REI Wise 'MarketEdge' Opens New Virtual Doors for Real Estate Professionals

NEWPORT BEACH, CA – July 13, 2006 /PRNewswire/ - REI Wise, an industry leader in real estate investment analysis and marketing software, today announced the unveiling of its new product MarketEdge. This innovative product introduces a new approach to real estate marketing by tying investment analysis and marketing together into one complete, easy-to-use platform. MarketEdge uses the information from REI Wise's online investment analysis tool and transforms it into a dynamic listing website full of investment details, marketing information and full-color pictures and charts.

MarketEdge gives subscribers the ability to create and customize eye-catching and effective real estate investment listings. Investment analysis details along with photos, maps, aerials and branding make this a unique product. MarketEdge removes the tedious process of cutting and pasting every change during the life cycle of marketing an investment property. REI Wise's high level of integration, with its web-based solutions, saves valuable time and resources by completely automating the listing process.

"The goal with MarketEdge is to give our subscribers the maximum flexibility they desire for marketing their product," said John D. Freyder, CEO of REI Wise. "This unique marketing program can be tied into any other web platform that allows users to add a link such as standard CIE, MLS or third party listing services. Our subscribers can also control a targeted audience through their own direct email campaigns. The comprehensive level of investment information on MarketEdge is significantly more valuable than that found on other listing sites."

MarketEdge provides an excellent solution for brokers, offices and corporations seeking to capitalize on new marketing possibilities. Using the latest in advanced technologies for Web-based deployment, REI Wise can easily integrate its products across any corporate infrastructure with tremendous scalability. MarketEdge listing websites are custom branded for individual subscribers, so that clients reviewing a listing have the impression that the technology belongs to the subscriber, not a third-party listing service.

NEWPORT BEACH, CA – June 18, 2006 - REI Wise, the industry leader in subscription-based commercial real estate investment analysis software today announced the release of REI Wise Commercial version 9.0.1. Adding development and lease versus buy modules, plus numerous new marketing capabilities, has resulted in a new version with features found in no other competing product. REI Wise Commercial 9.0.1 is available on both a desktop and internet subscription platform.

REI Wise Commercial produces professional marketing packages for investment analysis. The new version extends marketing capabilities to include maps, aerials, property photos and a property description. The new features found in version 9.0.1 produce a seamless, fully branded presentation that gives brokers a significant competitive edge. The new features are easy-to-use and most are simply point-and-click.

“Brokers tell us they are leveraging the software in new, creative ways,” said John D. Freyder, CEO of REI Wise. “They’re building inventory with new listings. With four basic pieces of information and a camera, a broker can produce a fifteen page investment proposal, including maps, aerials, photos and a complete twenty-year analysis in a matter of minutes. Such a timely and professional presentation often secures the listing”.

Adding two new modules makes REI Wise Commercial a unique product. The development module can be used when a project requires a lease-up analysis. The lease versus buy module produces net present value calculations and the cross over point. These are combined in the product and not sold as piecemeal. REI Wise also plans to include a unit sales module for the development analysis later this year.
