在新西兰
Spark buys into free 18-month-old property website homes.co.nz
http://www.nzherald.co.nz/property/news/article.cfm?c_id=8&objectid=11846272
Spark has bought a minority stake in a free website which gives New Zealand property sale histories, valuations and other information and claims about 300,000 users a month.
Few details were given about the deal with homes.co.nz but a statement from the web business said it was "in a healthy state having surpassed $1m in annualised revenue within the first year. Specific details are not publicly being disclosed, but it is a significant investment for homes.co.nz."
Ed Hyde, chief executive of Spark Ventures said the purchase was made for several reasons.
"They are well placed to make an even bigger mark in the rapidly growing area of digital services for the home.
They have a great team of seasoned New Zealand entrepreneurs and relevant international experience and we see a lot of potential cross benefits with some of our other services and customers," Hyde said.
John Holt, the website's founder and chief executive, said the deal would fund the 18-month-old business to a break-even position and allow it to grow.
"Our focus on homeowners who are not buying or selling will increase as we add a wide range of calculators and tools to help manage your home and enhance its value. Helping Kiwis plan for their longer-term property aspirations and significant projects on their current home is all part of our vision of being much more than just a property listings portal," Holt said.
When the site was launched last year, homes.co.nz's Jeremy O'Hanlon said the details of 1.2 million New Zealand residences, flats and apartments were accessible, giving up-to-date valuations on each residence and its site.
"These are all things you've had to pay for in the past," O'Hanlon said, explaining how the information was drawn from authorities including councils, which hold property records. "We've got the sales history, estimated value and we're now working with Westpac and IAG to add new data sets."
The site's computer model uses the data, historic sales and trends in each area, which is updated monthly, to give people an idea of an estimated value. Property sales history, recent sales, monthly homes estimate and rating values are on the site.

| 1 Comparative information for periods prior to H1 FY16 is not available. | 评论 坚持做， 好产品， 一定有市场。 评论 Managed Data means WAN, Internet Plus (premium internet, dedicated internet, higher grades than broadband) etc. it has nothing to do with big data or property data, or homes.co.nz at all. The revenue is declining because more competitors are entering the market driving the prices down. UFB fibre is also eating up the market share, as it's much quicker than HSNS copper. 评论 Thanks for that. But as per media report, it's Spark Ventures unit investing Homes.co.nz. So if, in the future, Spark generates revenue from its investment, what's the revenue category? 评论 什麼神系統都是次要，主要是有個好的sales person, 可以遊說大財團入股。 评论 Spark owns a lot of random assets such as carparks, sub leases buildings, Southern Cross cable... may fall under other operating revenue? 评论 真的啊？怪不得他们的主打越做越差。。。哈哈 评论 Spark有专门的风投部，持有的也不只是homes的股份。很多大公司都有风投部好吧 评论 希望黑羊也卖个几千万。 评论 这不是黑羊团队里Bill的老板吗？是不是Bill没跟他们说自己也是搞这个的才买了别人的系统呀？ 评论 Spark转型不是近一两天的事。它从几年前开始了。 一方面随着人越来越少打电话， 它fixed line的收入是一直在减少，而且这是不可逆转的趋势。 另一方面，因为wifi和光纤的普及所带来的速度提升，人更多开始消费网上的digitial content.这也带来另一面的机遇。 这些机遇包括网上媒体，Internet of things, 还有大数据等，它已经布局好了。 比方说spark是spotify 和netfix在新西兰的合作伙伴。 不过这次入股homes， 我觉得最关键的还是某楼讲的， homes是有个好的sales person来游说spark入股，也许他么老板原来就认识也不一定。 评论 签名照片过期很久了，换个新的吧 评论 懒得换了。 没人看签名 评论 黑羊系统的合伙人之一也是spark的呀。 经高人指点！终于明白为什么南岛的跌跌党突然新西兰自从妓毒撑黑历史被挂在热门推荐后，妓毒撑撸色们吓出一身冷汗夜不能寐！疯狂忽悠竞争者！避免其他买家影响自己北岛购房逃离魔窟计划！ 评论 大胆！基督城卢瑟每周单单吃定存利 ...
