It’s been nearly three years since the iPhone App Store launched, but one of the most popular sites in Australia – RealEState.com.au – has been missing from the line-up. But a few weeks ago the site finally launched its own dedicated mobile app.
The app itself serves the same function as the site – allowing you to search for real estate. But it does so now using a slick app interface, which is faster than the mobile site.
The app asks users to put in a few details, such as price range, property type and features such as bathrooms, bedrooms and garage spots, and then delivers you a number of options.
Touching a listing brings up more details including photographs, a description of the property and any comments given by the real estate agent. Below some other details such as inspection times, the agent’s contact details are also included.
If you’re interested in property – or even if you just like viewing what’s on the market – this is a must-have free app.
