There are so many wonderful tools out there now to help Realtors do their job faster and easier. We’ve done some research and rounded up some of the best technology and tips to help you grow your business in this modern world.

Photos

The Eye-Fi card goes into your camera and can immediately upload the images. So, if you have smart phone or a tablet with internet connection, the Eye-Fi can use that directly from the camera and upload images to your smartphone or tablet. Then you can review the images and choose which to upload to your website.

Calendars

Google calendar is a great way of combining all of your calendars into one easily accessible calendar from home, work, or on the go with your smartphone. You can also have your email accessed through Google Mail, and then directly add dates to the calendar.

Portable Office

Monster recommended the following list for a portable office:
  • Individual tablet PCs for displaying and retrieving documents and other computing tasks. “The client’s signature directly on the screen is as good as a signature on paper,” says Turner.
  • A portable printer.
  • Treo 650 smartphones that display listings and photos.
  • Internet-based fax numbers.
  • Proprietary real estate software.
All smartphones can easily display listings and photos, so find one that works with the rest of your office and life.

Websites

Many Realtors now set up websites for the address of the property they’re listing. This is a great way of providing a unique experience for the home. You can add in numerous photographs and videos as you’re not limited to what sites like Zillow or MLS offer. You are also able to get a lot of attention when people see a house, see it’s for sale, and then see the domain. They can go home and look up the house right away and call you.
