We build the most comprehensive and up to date websites for neighbourhoods. Period.

ProblemFor decades REALTORS® have been trying to create websites for the neighbourhood(s) they work in to re-inforce their brand as the local expert, but:

• It is too expensive to build and maintain a custom website.

• It takes too long to build and maintain a custom website.

• It costs too much money to drive traffic and create search engine success

• They don’t even know where to begin…they sell houses.

SolutionOutsource the experts. Purchase the exclusive rights to the neighbourhood website. Make sure it can get done in 30 days. And only use a technology that automatically updates and adds local content daily, with zero effort.

• Parkbench has built over 1200 neighbourhood websites• REALTORS® LOVE our terms• We’ve never missed our 30 day guarantee• Our technology automatically aggregates, organizes, and categorizes local content from

national & local sources, and showcases it on one easy to use platform• The REALTOR® doesn’t have to do anything

Business ModelOur revenue model is unique and proven.

We make money before we build and launch a new Neighbourhood Website.

We make $2,400-$7,200 per year per Neighbourhood Website.

Distribution: Our customers spend their time and money to market our website.
