SANTA CLARA, Calif., /PRNewswire/ — Realtor.com®, a leading online real estate destination operated by News Corp [NASDAQ: NWS, NWSA]; [ASX: NWS, NWSLV] subsidiary Move, Inc., today announced the launch of Property Tycoon, a new real estate listings game, that allows participants to test their market knowledge by selecting homes they think sold over asking price from a selection of homes.
“At realtor.com®, our goal is to help demystify the home-buying journey and Property Tycoon puts a fun spin on helping people understand how factors such as square footage and location impact home values,” said Nate Johnson, chief marketing officer for realtor.com®. “Whether you’re a real estate veteran or just starting out, Property Tycoon is an enjoyable way to test your real estate knowledge and learn more about different local markets.”
Players are given a game budget of $5 million to “purchase” as many properties as they think sold for more than their asking price from a group of 60 properties in a specific city. All featured properties are real realtor.com® listings sold in the last 60 to 90 days. Players can check their score using the Property Tycoon game results board and earn game badges for things like their placement in the competition.
