michele simsIt is in my opinion that technology and real estate go hand in hand; especially since they say that over 90% of home buyers start their search online. It is my belief that today's REALTORS® must learn to use technology to sustain their business. 
 
There are many forms of technology available to real estate professionals . . . it is all about figuring out how much technology one is going to use and how to make it work for them. I would say I am knee deep in technology . . . I love technology and how it helps me work more efficiently.
 
I am a big fan of Apple products (they just work for me) and I love how the iCloud lets my iPhone, iPad, and Macbook Pro always be in sync with each other. This has allowed me to have access to all my information no matter where I am at. Technology has also allowed me to be greener by not having to print every single document; I can now scan and email with a simple click of a button; even better, my clients can sign documents I send them electronically without having to print, sign and fax back to me.
 
In today's fast paced world, everyone wants and expects instant gratification . . . REALTORS who use technology are able to fulfill those needs.

Hi Michele. I too have become a huge Apple fan since getting a MacBook Pro and iPhone and I so agree that today's real estate professional needs to stay abreast of everything in technology and what works for them to assist their clients. The "cloud" in all its permutations is the way the world is heading. Nice post Michele.

Michele I'm all over the Apple products. It has made business so much easier.  You sound like you've got your 'techie' ducks in a row! Koudos to you!

Thanks Gary and Anna! They say once you go Apple . . . you won't go back to a pc! I know I won't :-) Another great app I like is dropbox . . .
