Technology makes a lot of our every days activities easier and more convenient. Nowadays there is an app for everything, even for those in the market for a new home. There are mobile apps that allow you to search listings, calculate mortgage cost and even informs you of businesses and attractions nearby. Here are a few apps that I think are helpful and easy to use.
Realtor.com, Trulia.com and Zillow.com all essentially do the same thing and provide the same services and are completely free. They all help you search for properties for sale. You can search for properties by zip code, price, features and even the age of a home. You can also search for listing activities such as open houses, new listings, and price reduction updates. Realtor.com is a favorite for realtors because it is updates every 15 minutes.
There is also an app that can help you with realtor terms when searching for a home. Buying or selling a home can be complex so it it important to be able to keep up with real estate terms. This app has more than 3,000 real estate terms where you can quickly access them. This can be very helpful when you are speaking to someone about things like liability clauses and acceleration. Lastly, my favorite is the AroundMe app that uses your gps signal to identify where you are and shows you a list of nearby business and attractions including the distance from your current location. This is very helpful when looking for a home in a place that is unfamiliar to you.
