As readers may have gathered I’ve been looking into the entire buying a house experience over the last while.
My experiences to date have been mixed, but I am learning quite a bit in the process.
The guys behind Daft.ie have been extremely helpful and gave me access to a really nice feature before unleashing it on the public earlier today. You can now subscribe to property alerts via RSS!
It’s a really nice feature, as I check bloglines a couple of times every day anyway. I can also easily mark items (in this case houses / properties) to check again later. Of course I could try to do that with the email alerts as well, but if you saw my inboxes you’d understand how impractical that might be!
Now if only finding an ideal house, mortgage and everything else were that easy!

I’ve been doing that for about 6 months on my property sites. Daft copying me again, tut, tut! 😀

Which property sites?

http://www.raymondpotterton.com for example. There’s an overall RSS feed and you can create alerts with email and rss feed updates. We wrote that last September I think.
