History
Homescape began in 1997 as a part of
Classified Ventures , which was formed by a joint-venture between five large media partners: Belo Corp., Gannett Co. Inc, The McClatchy Co., Tribune Co. and The Washington Post. Homescape was created to provide private-label real estate technology, data management solutions and online advertising solutions to the newspaper affiliates. Homescape announced on August 1, 2007 that it is "changing its approach by working directly with brokers and agents to gather property listings in markets nationwide."
