WHERE: An iPhone Application for the busy Real Estate Agent



As a real estate agent in today’s market, you must be faster, sharper and more resourceful than ever before. It is your job to guide hesitant home buyers and sellers through the process using your experience, knowledge and all of your available resources. In steps the WHERE™ iPhone application. Best part? It’s FREE!
Earlier this year, WHERE was touted as an “irresistible GPS mobile application” by Boston.com and just yesterday TechCrunch described it as ‘having everything but the kitchen sink’. WHERE’s location based platform coupled with a bevy of useful widgets make it a real estate agents dream application. Here are just some of the ways agents can use the application to get work done and houses sold.
1. Starbucks - Office away from the office. Need to sign a P&S agreement quickly? Want to take a client out for coffee to discuss their home buying needs? WHERE’s Starbucks finder can help you locate the nearest location. (Bonus - Go for the seasonal Pumpkin Spice Latte and you are sure to win them over)
2. Local Search - Perhaps you have buyers who have finally found a house they love and, unfortunately, it’s in an area that you are NOT AS familiar with. All you have to do is, bust out the WHERE iPhone app to help them find the closest dog park, chinese restaurant or elementary school.
3. Gas Buddy - I don’t have to remind you, as a real estate agent, you go through a lot of gas driving to open houses, home visits and buyer appointments. With the use of our Gas Buddy widget you can locate the closest gas stations to your current location (even when you are driving) AND find out which one has the cheapest gas.
4. Eventful - Welcome relocating clients with a wealth of information about the area’s local events, concerts and shows using the Eventful widget. This widget allows you to find out information about shows coming to the area.
5. YELP - Recommending a restaurant can be a tricky situation. What if they don’t like it? With WHERE’s YELP widget you can also find out what others have said about a certain restaurant and see how many stars it received.
While this is just a short list of how you can use the WHERE iPhone application to boost your real estate business, we’d love to hear how you have used it in your career. Tell us your story, leave it in the comment section, follow WHERE on Twitter or post to our Facebook fan page.
