Dallas, TX (September 27) On August 20, Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC announced the launch of the first-ever international home search application for iPhoneTM and AndroidTM-powered devices. The Coldwell Banker Real Estate mobile application enables users to easily search for property listings and recent home sales in 28 countries in North America, Europe, Central America, the Caribbean, Australia and South America.
“Coldwell Banker recognizes that today’s consumers are technologically savvy. Our company is committed to improving the consumer experience by introducing innovative technology. Now international consumers can use the application to view properties in our market that will best suit their lifestyle,” said Sue Meyer, President, Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage Dallas/Fort Worth (CBDFW).
Features of the new application include GPS-based search to locate nearby homes for sale, open houses and recent homes sold, ability to sort recently sold properties by location, price and sale date, option to view search results in list form or on a variety of maps including street, hybrid and satellite that are marked with “clickable” Coldwell Banker Real Estate icons, detailed property listings that include images and a slideshow view, direct dial and e-mail functions from the user’s mobile handset to the local Coldwell Banker Real Estate listing agent associated with each property, real-time notifications of new properties and open houses identified through the user’s customized saved searches.
The results of these searches as well as the search itself can be saved in a personalized ‘My Coldwell Banker’ account newly created from the user’s smartphone or added to an existing account with Coldwell Banker by logging into the site directly from the handheld device. Unique to the Coldwell Banker application, searches that are saved to an app-created ‘My Coldwell Banker’ account will automatically generate notifications of new properties and open houses, alerting the user to updated results right on the device’s homepage.
