Windows Mobile Users Find Homes on REALTOR.com

26 July, 2007 Posted by SolSie As News, Software, Tips, Windows Mobile

REALTOR.com, the nation’s most comprehensive real estate network, just launched the next generation real estate search technology, REALTOR.com Mobile. With a free and easy downloadable application, consumers and REALTORS® can now perform searches for real-estate listings from their cell phone or PDA.

“We developed REALTOR.com Mobile because more people are using hand held devices to access information on the road,” said REALTOR.com Senior Vice President, Product Development, Joe DeTuno. “Through this new mobile technology, consumers now have current listings with property details at their finger tips whenever they want it.”
Instead of cruising neighborhoods or searching ads, consumers can now use REALTOR.com Mobile to search for homes using criteria including city, state or zip codes, price range, as well as number of bedrooms and bathrooms. If a prospective home looks interesting and is close by, a simple touch of the “Contact Details” feature connects the house hunter with the listing agent or broker.

“One of the more exciting elements of REALTOR.com Mobile is the ‘Homes Near By’ feature,” said REALTOR.com President, Errol Samuelson. “If you’re walking or driving through a neighborhood and see a ‘For Sale’ sign, one click of a button delivers a photo with all of the property details right to you. With another quick click, you’re connected with the listing agent or broker. There’s no waiting or wondering because you have instant results. We think the mobility, immediacy and convenience of REALTOR.com Mobile will revolutionize the way people search for homes.”

REALTOR.com Mobile can be used with devices running Windows Mobile 5.0 OS, including HP hw6965, HP hw6925, Palm Treo 700w (or Palm Treo 700wx), AT&T 8525 , Cingular 8125, O2 Xda Stealth and Audiovox XV6700.

My first attempt of this Beta version on my Axim X51v was not successful. Perhaps it only supports QVGA devices. The app requires GPS and failed on me several times! :-(
