SubdivisionINFO.com receives RLF to support expansion
COLUMBIA CITY, Ind. (June 20, 2011) – Local software development company SubdivisionINFO.com announced today that the company is launching its proprietary web solution for home buyers in new markets in 2011. The company anticipates adding three employees immediately and up to 25-30 employees by 2013 to support its expansion.
“SubdivisionINFO.com has developed the country’s first online resource for new home buyers to search for subdivision information,” said company president Lamonte Rhoades, “I anticipate steady growth in the coming months as our team develops relationships with home builders throughout the company.”
The Whitley County Council recently approved a multi-phase, CEDIT-based Revolving Loan Fund award to support the company’s software development. Rhoades also recently participated in the EDC’s Small Business and Entrepreneurship Initiative (SBEI), which included completion of a FastTrac New Ventures business planning program. Twenty-six entrepreneurs and small business owners have participated in the program since its inception in spring 2009.
“SubdivisionINFO.com is a case study of the high growth, local growth companies that are going to be important to our community’s economic success in the years ahead,” said EDC president Alan Tio, “I look forward to working with Lamonte as he continues to grow his company in Whitley County.”
SubdivisionINFO.com was formed in 2005 to provide a comprehensive one-stop-shop for all information on subdivisions within targeted regional markets. Initial test markets include Dallas, TX and Columbus, OH. The site is accessed by home buyers, home sellers, developers, builders, and home related retailers such as carpet/flooring manufacturers and audio video retailers.
