					<description>I would have to say it is a way better model than most of the other...especially House Values who charges obscene amounts of money for what could be had for a few dollars. It appears Estately at least tries to match principals with interviewed agents as opposed to distributing consumer info to any old agent with a license.</description>

					<description>Hi Agent Scoreboard.  You are right: there are some similarities between our new service and other services available on the internet. 

There are also some important differences though: we don't sell consumer's personal information to the highest bidder or to the agent who &quot;owns&quot; a zip code. Instead, we match people with agents who are the best for them. We are hyper-focussed on matching people with great agents, to the extent that we will remove any agent who doesn't get top marks from clients we refer to them. 

I could list a few more differences, but really we are responding to our user's requests: once they narrowed down their search on Estately, they wanted to see homes and get expert advice. We put together Agent Match to help them find those great agents.</description>
