Technology Talks in Real Estate

Technology is key to a better real estate business. Check out some of the iPad apps I use in my business at RE/MAX Leading Edge. I use my iPad for everything. I love being green!

I'm often asked what makes me different. I always answer, technology makes me better and I run my real estate business like a real business. I love to share the things that work for me. It's fun to share and great to give.

Perhaps you can use some of these in your own business. Let me know what works for you. 

Realtor.com - This is the go-to search app if you don’t have your own branded app, useful for both consumers and agents. Its mapping features are awesome and you can “draw” a circle around your desired neighborhood to find all the homes for sale within it. The app has competitor information so make sure that you utilize the “Send to Agent Feature.” Once its activated, all your clients home inquiries go directly to you.

Evernote – This app is the external brain for every busy professional. Checklists, photos, audio, shareable notebooks, document importing, and its cross-platform synching make managing your business a snap.

OpenHome Pro – This is an iPad only app. It has an incredible feature set for doing consumer open houses, broker opens and marketing homes to open house guests – and guests love completing mini surveys and registering on an iPad. It’s great for getting contact information.
