Online Real Estate Trading
Online trading can take two forms.
The first is simply the inclusion of a text box alongside a real-estate listing, stating the seller will consider a trade and possibility a description of what the seller is looking to trade for. Craigslist is a popular example of this. While not specifically geared towards permanent trades, it is often used for such purposes. There are also several web sites, mostly set up by realtors, that use this approach.
The second, more sophisticated, approach uses a model similar to a dating service. Such a web site matches sellers with other sellers based on what each seller has and what each is looking to trade for. There are a small number of web sites that make use of this approach.
