Rofo takes some of the complexity of finding commercial real estate and makes it dead simple. It’s property in Web 2.0. Or shall we call it Property 2.0?

Rofo works in two ways. You can either search for the commercial space that you require. They are aggregating all the listings for the available real estate in specific areas. So when you search for a specific criteria, you’re shown a bunch of options, and you have the ability to connect annonymously with someone who has space available and request a tour from them.

Secondly, you can list your space requirements. This can also be done anonymously. So if you’re just starting to gather information it’s a great way to see what’s out there and begin hunting for ideas without the pressure of a broker or agent calling you every 2 days.

It’s a great service but currently only available in a very limited area. What would be nice is to see this service grow and be available on a global scale.
