Startup launches referral-based real estate search platform 

Real estate technology startup Agent Boomerang has rolled out its property search platform in beta, the startup announced today.

The startup launched in its first test market, Tampa Bay, Fla., today and plans to expand to the rest of Florida by the end of the year and to other states beyond.
