Homeseekers can now easily search for properties thanks to a new REW partnership with Glacier Media’s far-reaching network of community news sites.

It’s now easier than ever to search for a new home in B.C. thanks to an exciting new partnership between REW.ca, B.C.’s most popular home search platform, and Glacier Media’s far-reaching network of community news sites.

Millions of people across B.C. get their news from Glacier’s Community Media sites each month. From Vancouver Is Awesome to the Victoria Times Colonist and the North Shore News, the Glacier network delivers news that highlights local events and issues, and keeps residents informed and engaged. At the same time, 16 million people trust REW — owned by Glacier Media — for their home searching needs.

Real estate and housing issues are at the forefront of today’s news agenda. Now, while readers view articles about house prices or interest rates, they can also search REW property listings and get a real-time view of their local real estate markets. 

REW president Simon Bray describes B.C. real estate as a spectator sport that is brought to life with this partnership.

“We’re excited about extending the reach of quality real estate content into some of the Lower Mainland’s most popular news sites,” he says. “REW can now bring a better search experience to homeseekers on these sites and benefit the excellent agents marketing those homes on behalf of their clients.”

How the partnership works for homeseekers and real estate professionals

From June 10, 2024, homeseekers will be able to access listings represented by top agents who are members on the REW platform, right from the homepage of the following community news sites:

Homeseekers can easily search for properties, view listings, book house tours, sign up for property alerts and connect with top agents, all starting from their local news site.

For REW One members, the partnership gives them access to the millions of readers who visit Glacier news sites each month. Plus, they’ll be able to tap into REW’s suite of products and services, allowing them to promote their services directly on the new search results pages.
