Next Phase Media Announces The Introduction Of AgentConnect.com To Its Existing Family Of Well-Known Brands

New Company Brings Home Buyers and Sellers Together With Qualified Real Estate Professionals

Walnut Creek, CA, April 7 , 2003 – Next Phase Media, Inc.(NPM), the world's premier online referral source, today announced the integration of AgentConnect.com into the company's growing family of leading online brands. AgentConnect, a powerful service that connects residential homebuyers and sellers with licensed, pre-qualified real estate professionals nationwide, significantly expands the reach of Next Phase Media in the consumer real estate market.

AgentConnect.com, helps homebuyers find qualified real estate professionals who know and understand their local markets and can provide valuable insight on schools, local government, special services, and other details that are important in making a home-buying decision. Realtors in the AgentConnect.com network have the advantage of finding serious buyers and sellers without the hassle and expense of relying on unpredictable and frequently very costly traditional advertising.

AgentConnect.com addresses the needs of an extremely robust market. According to the National Association of Realtors®, sales of resale homes rose in January to an annual rate of 6.1 million, the highest on record, attributable largely to the lowest mortgage rates in 40 years. At same time, the Internet is becoming a huge medium for real estate marketing. For example, online real estate classified ad spending alone is expected to reach $273 million in 2003, according to Jupiter Research. AgentConnnect.com provides a truly cost-effective and measurable approach to reaching and winning new client prospects online.

"I would not have met these clients without AgentConnect.com. I cannot wait to get into work now to see if I have received more referrals," Said Debra White, Coldwell Banker.
