There are a huge number of consolidation services when it comes to the sale of products such as equipment, property or financial services, which involve large amounts of money.

Homeshark-http://www.homeshark.com is an excellent example of consolidation. Entirely devoted to property, this site meets the consumer's every need on a single site, whether he wants to buy a property, finance a purchase, remortgage a property, or get a valuation of an apartment or house. Visitors to the site can thus search for a property or land for sale throughout the entire United States, find out about its surrounding environment (nearby school services, neighbourhood ...), get a property valuation, contact and estate agent, find a loan or a mortgage, fill out a mortgage application form online or obtain an advisory service on the best method of financing a purchase. To be able to offer this exceptionally wide range of services, Homeshark has signed agreements with first-class financial organisations (Bank United, Chase Manhattan, ComUnity Lending, Countrywide, Crestar Mortgage Corporation, First Franklin, Flagstar Bank, Headlands Mortgage, IndyMac, InterFirst, Mellon Mortgage, Merrill Lynch, Monument Mortgage, NationsBanc Mortgage, North American Mortgage, PHH US Mortgage Norwest, Prism Mortgage, Sunbelt National Mortgage, Union Federal, World Savings) but also with content providers, in order to expand its property data base (Homeseekers, Agent News, AMS, Transamerica Intellitech, Inman News, NSRS). In just two years, Homeshark has attracted a number of investors (Investment Partner, Altos Ventures, Discovery Ventures, Doll Capital, Hyperion Partners II, L.P., Interactive Minds, Liberty Bell I, LLC, NIF USA, Tribune Ventures and Weiss, Peck & Greer Venture Partners) and several portal sites (Hotbot, Webcrawler, Infoseek…) which have incorporated Homeshark's service. The company's income is naturally based on the turnover it generates among its different partners (estate agents and banks).
