Internet has changed the way how real estate transactions are made. In a not so long ago days real estate listings were primarily obtained via a dedicated agent, who arranged selling/buying process. The agent was the key point of accessing the data from MLS systems and providing listings to a buyer. Real Estate listings were also accessible in the news papers and magazines.
Internet expanded marketing of the homes for sale and allowed much greater access to listing resources. Agents' web sites have home listings, and even MLS sites in many cases allow public access to homes for sale information. Search for homes became much easier on the Internet.
Mobile technologies are likely to change dynamics in Real Estate transactions just like Internet did it to the industry. Advantages of having Real Estate information at hands (on a spot) will benefit both Real Estate agents as well as home buyers.
Trulia made their home search application available in the Apple App Store and it quickly became on the top 25 applications list. It has limited functionality, but sufficient to find properties near specified location or GPS position.
There are additional opportunities for Real Estate mobile applications.
