LoopNet Acquires Reaction Web, a Leader in Custom Web Site and Marketing Solutions for the Commercial Real Estate Industry
-- Acquisition Enables LoopNet to Deliver and Expand Support Throughout Entire Property Marketing Lifecycle --
SAN FRANCISCO, March 31 -- LoopNet, Inc. (NASDAQ: LOOP), which operates the largest online commercial real estate marketplace, today announced the acquisition of Reaction Web, a leading online solutions company focused in the commercial real estate industry. Reaction Web brings state-of-the-art custom web sites, deal rooms and private property marketing tools to the robust suite of LoopNet solutions.
Reaction Web develops client focused, custom web sites that allow brokerage firms and brokerage teams to market listings to potential investors and enhance the sales process. The web sites are customized and tailored to each client's individual brand. Advanced transaction management tools enable brokers to automate core steps such as registration, investor approval, execution of confidentiality agreements, response tracking, and the creation of due diligence war rooms. Automated lead tracking services allow brokers to monitor each investor's level of interest based on total visits to a property listing, specific page views, and information downloads.
The company has provided online services for some of the nation's best known commercial brokerages and practice groups including the CB Richard Ellis Private Client Group, Apartment Realty Advisors, Grubb & Ellis Private and Institutional Capital Markets groups, Colliers International, Cushman Wakefield and Madison Partners of Los Angeles.
"We are very excited to welcome the Reaction Web team and solutions to LoopNet. Reaction Web has developed an exceptional reputation for delivering state-of-the-art, custom solutions to their clients and they embrace a 'Put Clients First' approach that is a core philosophy of LoopNet," said Thomas Byrne, President and COO of LoopNet. "Adding the Reaction Web product suite to our solutions enables us to further support our clients throughout the entire commercial property marketing lifecycle. We look forward to integrating the Reaction Web services into the LoopNet solutions suite and deliver even greater value to our clients."
"This acquisition will allow us to provide our clients with the best solutions and services in the industry for their commercial real estate marketing programs," explained Mike Mockus, General Manager of Reaction Web. "As a division of LoopNet, we can now leverage their advanced technical resources and extensive marketing expertise to develop more robust next-generation solutions, enabling our clients to enhance their marketing initiatives and reach an even broader audience."
Reaction Web will continue to be managed by its founders Mike Mockus and Paul Dynan, with the entire Reaction Web team remaining intact.
Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. LoopNet does not currently expect the acquisition of Reaction Web to have a material impact on its 2010 financial results.
