Pocket Real Estate(TM) Wireless Application Demonstrated on The Nokia 3650 Imaging Phone During 2003 REALTORS(R) Conference & Expo
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Nokia (NYSE: NOK - News) is showcasing their Real Estate Solutions today through November 10th at the annual 2003 REALTORS® Conference and Expo in San Francisco. Nokia Real Estate Solutions empower real estate professionals with key time saving applications like wireless access to Mobile MLS(TM) (multiple listing service), a mortgage calculator, and Agent Care(TM) service accessed directly from the Nokia 3600 and Nokia 3650 imaging phones. Nokia and Pocket Real Estate have collaborated to provide wireless access to the MLS listing database. With Pocket Real Estate(TM) Wireless on the Nokia 3600 and 3650 imaging phones, MLS data is retrieved in real-time, giving you virtually instant access to the latest MLS information.
"Most real estate professionals carry four mobile devices, each with a distinct function. The combination of a device like the Nokia 3650 phone, and applications designed specifically for their needs, busy agents and brokers have an ideal business tool to help them stay informed, remain productive, and connected to their clients and co-workers," said Jake Sagehorn, Nokia's Director & GM, Terminals, Enterprise Solutions. "Working with companies like Pocket Real Estate to enable value-add services such as Mobile MLS Access we are providing agents with a competitive advantage not available to agents tethered to wired Internet access."
Pocket Real Estate Wireless allows you to access the MLS database including active, pending, and sold properties for residential, multi-family, acreage, and lots. In addition to MLS access, the application also features enhanced property searching via a multitude of criteria; access to thousands of agents and their office information; retrieval of full-color MLS photos. Mobile MLS access provided by Pocket Real Estate is currently available in eight MLS markets: Columbus, Dallas, Indianapolis, Memphis, Oklahoma City, Silicon Valley, St. Louis, and Tulsa. The application will be available soon in several other markets.
"Pocket Real Estate is excited to be working with Nokia to offer agents an enhanced wireless solution on the Nokia 3600 and Nokia 3650 imaging phone," said Everett Kaneshige, CEO of Pocket Real Estate. "The benefits are undeniable. Being able to access MLS information wirelessly, in real time, as well as other critical information, take and send property photos to a client and calculate a mortgage while in the field reduces time in the office, improves productivity, increases client communications, and bottom line, closes more deals."
