SEE A HOME FOR SALE? GET INSTANT INFO VIA TEXT OR AUTO VOICE RESPONSE ON YOUR CELL PHONE!
Ahhhh . . . 2009!
You’ve got a question about something? You want an answer NOW! Not twenty minutes or an hour from now!
RIGHT NOW!
Well if you are house hunting new high-tech tools provide instant information confidentially and discretely while you are still sitting in your car in front of a house – without calling a live Real Estate Agent to get that information.
Got an itch? The technology can help you scratch that itch . . . IMMEDIATELY!
For several years ListingDomains.com and others have offered the ability for agents to reserve their own property-specific domain names. One for Dean’s Team Chicago – 570Christopher.com for one of our Upper-Bracket Executive-Styled Homes in the Chicago Suburb of North Barrington IL. Those driving by the house are reminded of the dedicated domain via a small sign rider atop the For Sale Sign.
Is your cell phone Internet capable? Enter the dedicated URL and get full data and exterior and interior photos on the home right on your cell phone.
Prefer to text?
The same service company offers an abbreviated listing detail sheet again with photos via text. Send th Text Message 4118Pontiac.com one of our recently-sold Single-Family Houses on the Northwest Side of Chicago to 79274 for instant info on this home via text.
Still stuck in the 90’s? OMG! ("Oh My Gosh" for the uninitiated)!
Likely you own at minimum a cell phone with voice capabilities. According to Mary Ellen Podmolik in today’s Chicago Tribune a new technology using Voice Pad will allow you to make a simple cell phone call from in front of any listed Chicago Area home of interest key in only the house number and receive an abbreviated property information message read back to you.
It wasn’t all that long ago this kind of "Instant Gratification" was the stuff of fairy tales! Today even the old "Talking House" system where you can get information on your AM radio tuned to a specific frequency while passing by a home of interest seems antique – although that technology is only about 20 years old!
Prospective Home Buyers want to know facts and data NOW – and these new systems do help provide it ultra-fast!
But be careful some key data may be missing from the web page or text message or voice mail message. And likely you will get the missing data as well from the Listing Agent on the property.
You see in most cases entering or texting the domain name also immediately notifies the Listing Agent via text on their cell phone. And a quick follow-up call by a live Realtor is likely – again in an instant!
