Real Estate Apps for your smart phone can be an incredibly useful tool for buyers and sellers in a market where having the most up to date information can mean the difference between making a good deal or… well the other thing. There are a number of great real estate apps out there, but one of the coolest for home buyers is the Realtor.com App. This app will use your phone’s built in GPS to find the closest homes for sale, open houses, and even rentals.

As a home buyer’s tool it’s a no brainer. If you’re driving down the street you see a FOR SALE sign, all it takes is pulling over (safety first!) and pulling up the app and within seconds you will have the price, agent information, and even notes other buyer’s have made about the house.

This can be a useful tool for homeowners thinking of selling as well. Sellers can easily monitor which homes in the neighborhood have come on the market and which ones are reducing prices. For looking at past home sales and neighborhood market trends, the Zillow APP can be indispensable.

Buyers and sellers have more options for getting information about the housing market than ever before- if you need information about a house you found with your Realtor App feel free to contact us!
