Gene started RepTech in 2007. RepTech provides advanced technology products for real estate professionals, including Curb Appeal, the new digital image alteration tool.

About Gene, RepTech & Curb Appeal:

Gene is a CPA, a Certified Technical Trainer, Certified Digital Designer and a Realtor. An extensive background in numerical analysis and graphics / image alteration have allowed Gene to create products which are both easy to work with and powerful. Curb Appeal is one of todays hot digital image products which allows Agents to easily modify background images to create a "vision" for those buyers that don't have that ability. Agents can digitally perform anything from a minor repainting to an extreme makeover with a few clicks of the mouse. Best of all it can be done on the spot, right in front of the buyer.

This is the one product that can modify everything in and around the home; interiors, exteriors, landscaping are all easily changed. Agents can even provide Buyers with a detailed report of the specific modifications and products used to go from a "forgotten foreclosure" to a "fabulous find". Using these reports, Buyers can get comparative estimates on actually doing the work, potentially saving thousands of dollars. Curb Appeal is changing the landscape!

NAR Convention 2009 - The Exhibit Hall

by James Dingman on November 16, 2009

The National Association of REALTORS held its convention this weekend in San Diego (my home), so I took today to go down and walk through the exhibit hall.  I've done this many times before and find it a good way to get the pulse of the business and spot new or at least interesting things.  Here's what I noticed this year:

I saw only a few things that really excited me:

  • RepTech.  They have software that will let you doctor interior and exterior property photos to look as they would if the house was fixed up!  Particularly valuable in distressed property situations where it's important for the customer to see what might be possible, the software shows how the place would look with fresh paint, new landscaping, a pool and more.  The lady who did the demo for me ripped the carpet out of this living room, put down hardwood floors and an oriental rug and changed the drapes and it was easy.  www.reptechcenter.com

4. RepTechCenter.com
This is actually a suite of products. If you have ever tried to calculate your own supply and demand data, you know that it can be a time-consuming task. The "Excel Key Market Analysis" template from RepTechCenter.com allows you track up to four years of supply and demand data based upon local MLS data. Using data obtained nationally from remodeling contractors, they also offer a "Kitchen and Bath Remodel" template that details the costs associated with various types of remodeling. The program I found to be the most interesting, however, was their "Curb Appeal" program. This program allows you to upload photos of your listing. You can then change both the interior and exterior of the property by importing different colors, types of floor covering, or even "planting" new landscaping on the photos. The effect was quite dramatic. This program retails for $119.95 and seems like a particularly good investment for properties that show poorly, especially for REOs.
