Catylist joins Journal family as prop. database specialist for rejournal.com

Beginning this week rejournal.com will be offering an excellent property database powered by catylist.com, a successful seven-year old provider of commercial real estate information. The 15-year old rejournal.com site, one of the first commercial/investment websites in the country, was originally designed to be a one stop shop for visitors in the Northeast. Sorely missing all those years was an accomplished property database. Enter catylist.com, a small, talented team that builds great real estate software for local commercial real estate communities. It was founded by Ron Marten a CCIM member since 1981 and former owner and manager of several real estate firms. One partner is Richard Maxson, a 17 year veteran of working with Realtor organizations and MLS groups. The technical partner is Paul Brockmeyer. Their regional rep is Nancy McKellar whose experience is highly respected as a commercial real estate educator. The commercial listing data on rejournal.com will be a live feed from several Catylist client sites including the New England Commercial Information Exchange, Buffalo Niagara Commercial Listing Service, Massachusetts Commercial Information Exchange and the Pennsylvania Commercial Information Exchange. John Picard, New York Real Estate Journal president, said, "We searched for a long time, talking to various firms to find the right fit, and Catylist is the company that finally hit a homerun with us."
