To everyone who’s been wondering what on Earth has happened to Home I Own – it’s gone through a complete makeover. We reckoned it was about time this popular, unique, independent real estate blog became faster, easier to navigate, more intuitive – and much nicer to look at. A lot of work has been put in, a lot of thought, and the main goal was to simplify its interface and make your reading more enjoyable.
So, what’s new? Well, in a few words:
1. All the freshest posts are on the homepage. If their snippets make you want to read the rest – click the ‘Read more’ link. Intuitive? Heck yea! 
2. Our new true blue navigation bar will take you anywhere you want to go. Click on READ and choose the topic you want to read about. Is it “BUYING A HOUSE”? Just click on it and you’ll see all the tips we ever wrote for prospective home buyers.
3. Don’t have the time or patience to look for a particular article? Type a keyword in the search box (e.g “making an offer” or “breaking a lease”), located in the blue nav bar, and you’ll get a list of articles closely related to the keyword.
4. Wondering what others are reading? There’s a list of most popular articles in the right sidebar, waiting for you to read and comment on.
5. You have quite a few ways to connect with Home I Own through social networks or RSS, and if you subscribe to our articles via email (through the subscription form in the right sidebar) – you will receive a whole House Hunting Kit, absolutely free.
These are just the most noticeable features of the new and improved Home I Own.com – but I am sure you will discover the rest as you go.
I can’t wait for your feedback, recommendations for further improvements and general reaction – so please take a moment to leave a comment (hey, that even rhymes!) and tell me what you think.Tagged as: first home buyers, home owners, house-hunting
