London, United Kingdom - November 30, 2006 - Community web site, TrustedPlaces, will be offering a local information search solutuion, to purchase and rental property seekers, through search engine, zoomf.com. The new solution, will provide TrustedPlaces local cafes, pubs, bars and restaurant listings and ratings, displayed along side the zoomf.com property for sale and homes to let listings for Londoners.
