Palatine, Illinois – Corinne Guest, a Barrington real estate agent specializing in the northwest suburbs of Chicago, has launched a new website highlighting Barrington homes for sale. The site has a many advanced tools to search for Palatine real estate, including single family homes, condos, and luxury homes.

According to Guest, the new website, http://www.mybarringtonhomes.com, uses powerful search engine technology to help buyers find Barrington homes. The site includes conveniently organized search results to show homes for sale in other northwest Chicago neighborhoods from Schaumburg to Crystal Lake.

Areas covered in the vicinity of Barrington include Lake Zurich, Hawthorn Woods, Kildeer, Long Grove, Deer Park, Algonquin, Lake In The Hills, Cary, Crystal Lake, Fox River Grove, Inverness, Palatine, South Barrington, Barrington Hills, Elgin, Arlington Heights, Rolling Meadows, Schaumburg, Hoffman Estates, and Elk Grove Village.

“It has never been easier for buyers to find Barrington IL Homes that fits their family’s exact needs. Buyers are finding it to be a big time-saver compared to the national real estate search sites.”

Guest says that the problem with many of the big national websites is that their database of listings is not always fresh. This means buyers frequently waste valuable time searching for properties only to find properties that are no longer for sale. She says MyBarringtonHomes.com uses fresh data.

“We made it a point to provide fresh Illinois real estate data to our buyers because we really respect their time. If they are going to spend time using our site to search for their next home, we want them to have a positive and productive experience.”

She says that there are many tools available on the site to make a buyer’s search for a home much easier, including a powerful, no-obligation email property alert service.

“Once a buyer has refined their search so it shows the types of homes in the price range and locations they are most interested in, it is very easy to save the search. The site will automatically send email updates whenever new listings come on the market that match a buyer’s search criteria.”

“If you are in the market for Barrington Illinois homes for sale, we definitely recommend trying out the new property search tools. Then when you find a listing you want to see in person, just give us a call at 847-363-3686 and we’ll schedule a showing.”

Search for Portland Homes on the Apple iPhone

Portland, Oregon – David Somerville, a Portland, Oregon area REALTOR® covering real estate in Portland, Lake Oswego, West Linn, Beaverton, Hillsboro, and Tigard, has launched an iPhone application to make it more convenient for buyers to search for Portland homes from their mobile phones.

The app, which is available for download in iTunes or from Somerville’s website, http://www.maxwellsinclair.com, is offered free of charge to home buyers to search Portland’s real estate listings by entering activation code 2370. He says users just need an iPhone and an iTunes account, and they can be browsing — and bookmarking — available real estate listings fast.

Somerville says that searching for Portland homes is made significantly easier with this new technology.

“The iPhone is naturally a perfect tool to search for homes online, because the browsing experience on the small screen is so near the desktop experience. The ability to take it with you when you’re out driving around Portland neighborhoods makes it very useful.”

The application makes this browsing experience even easier, because it provides an easy to use tool to help buyers drill down with detailed search criteria to find the perfect property.

With half of all mobile web browsing performed on the iPhone, he says it made sense to offer this application first to reach the most home buyers. But he said that plans are underway to offer more mobile real estate search applications to search for Portland homes on other mobile operating systems like Android and Blackberry.

“We’re very excited about this new tool to offer our clients. Purchasing a home can be a difficult process without the right tools and experienced, friendly people to make it happen. This is just one more way we’ve tried to use technology to make the home buying process a little easier — and more enjoyable — for our clients.”

Seattle, Washington – As a Seattle Washington real estate agent, Shelly Hu has a lot of advanced tools at her fingertips for finding Seattle property such as foreclosures, condos, luxury properties, and waterfront properties. Now she’s making those tools available to her website visitors for free with the launch of her new real estate search website that gives users a wide variety of choices in how they search for Seattle homes.

According to Hu, the new website uses powerful real estate search engine technology along with advanced localization of search results for buyers in the Seattle market.

“It has never been easier to find Seattle real estate than it is now. I wanted to make as much information available to homebuyers as possible,” she says. “From the feedback we’ve received so far I can tell that people are really finding it useful. ”

She says that the map search is the most prominent feature, but there are many other methods available on the site to search for Washington real estate.

“Some people prefer the visual interactivity of the map search, because you can see clearly where properties are in relation to other landmarks in Seattle. Others people prefer the advanced real estate search tool, which makes available many of the search criteria that would normally only be accessible to real estate agents.”

As a result, she says, the site actually provides thousands of different ways for Seattle homebuyers to find the perfect property to meet their family’s needs. Hu suggests that visitors spend some time on the site to get familiar with it.

“The more you use the tools, the more you are likely to discover new techniques to find the kinds of properties you are looking for. One of the best ways to search is just to enter a keyword such as ‘Seattle foreclosures’ into the text box at the top right.”

But the most convenient feature, perhaps, is the property alert service that’s built into the site. After a user creates an account, searches and listings can be saved to come back to later. They can also sign up for Realty Watcher automatic email alerts to let them know when new properties come on the market that match their search preferences.

“If you are in the market for Seattle real estate, we definitely recommend trying out the site,” Hu says. “We believe this is the best way to search for–and find–Seattle homes for sale.”

“It has never been easier to find Idaho homes than it is now. I wanted to make as much information available as possible to first time homebuyers as well as existing home owners looking to relocate to the Boise area,” she says. “Our clients say they are really finding the site useful.”

What Portland home buyers may not know is that many of those tools are available for free to his website visitors on his top-rated real estate search website, giving users a wide variety of choices in how they search for Portland homes.

According to Somerville, the website offers a huge advantage to Portland home buyers because of the wealth of free real estate listing and market information provided.

“We’ve gone overboard providing market data and neighborhood information for Portland real estate.

“We’re confident the site will prove to be a huge time saver for Portland homebuyers.”
He says that the map search is a popular feature, but there are many other methods available on the site to search for Oregon real estate, such as by school, neighborhood, or housing type.

“Some users prefer the visual nature of the map search, because you can see clearly where properties are in relation to other landmarks in Portland. Others prefer the advanced real estate search tool, which is an amazingly powerful real estate search engine that is normally only accessible to a Portland Realtor or real estate broker.”

He says the site provides thousands of different ways for Portland first time homebuyers and existing homeowners to find a Portland home to meet their family’s needs. Somerville suggests that visitors spend some time trying out the site to get familiar with it.

“The more you use the free search tools, the more you are likely to find new ways to uncover the types of properties you are looking for. One of the best ways to search is to just select a zip code in the Basic Search form.”

But the most convenient feature, perhaps, is the new listing alert that’s built into the site. Once a user creates an account, searches can be saved and automatic email alerts set up to let them know when new listings come on the market that match their search criteria.

Somerville recommends that anyone relocating to the Portland area take advantage of the free information and search tools provided. “If you are in the market for Portland homes, we suggest trying out the site early in your quest for the perfect home,” Somerville says. “We’re confident the site will prove to be a huge time saver for Portland homebuyers.”
