History

The site was conceptualized in spring of 2008 and development began in the summer. Originally, CondoGala was intended to be a catalogue of luxury property development websites but soon evolved as it was realized that a good platform for commenting and reviewing properties did not exist. In an effort to provide a forum to easily enable reviews of properties (in conjunction with key property information), CondoGala took a new, more lofty direction. The Beta site was launched October 1, 20008.
