We’re never content to rest on our reputations at BHGRE, and so I’m excited to tell you that we released an enhanced version of our iPhone App, the Home Selection Assistant.

After listening to our users and leveraging the best that the iPhone platform has to offer, we have added four new features to the App that make the home selection process even easier.

• The home screen has been improved to link users to a map showing all of their property albums and the properties’ respective locations, at a glance

• We’ve added a “Contact an Agent” button, which when tapped, will enable the user to search for an agent using their current GPS location or ZIP, and contact them directly

• The “Points of Interest Mapping” feature will allow users to search for points of interest (such as restaurants, parks, etc.) in the area surrounding the property. The closest 50 points of interest will be displayed on the map as green pins

• The “Photo Enhancement” feature has been improved so that users can change the orientation of the photo from portrait to landscape or vice versa and use the buttons in either orientation

In addition to consumers, we know that our agents are using the App to relay important information about the homes and surrounding points of interest to their clients. With all this information at their fingertips, agents are always the subject matter experts on the home and the community.

With these updates, agents are now only one email or phone call away from prospective and existing clients.
