iPhone APPS for Real Estate Professionals
I am pleased to announce that today MobileAppLoader has launched its beta program for small businesses. This ground-breaking product -- one of a kind -- enables small businesses to deploy customized mobile applications for iPhones and include them in App Stores. For a limited time, they are offering the customizable iPhone application, "Real Estate - Real Easy" for free with no setup or monthly fees during the beta period.
As many of you know, I love my iPhone as a business tool and yes, as a cell phone too. I use it all day, everyday. In most cases, helping and assisting our members. There are so many applications I use and love, but way too many to list here. Apptism.com is currently tracking 31,102 iPhone Apps, including my AR Business Card I posted about last week. To get a free copy, CLICK HERE
As promised, here's the video showing you how to get your own customized iPhone app for your business.
MoblieAppLoader is now offering you the same deal they did me. I made a promise to my AR friends that they would get first shot at this so here you go. Having worked with their Developer (Zvika Ashkenazi) these past few weeks, I've had the chance to test and measure their product, their responsiveness, and most importantly, their commitment to customer service and satisfaction. I rate them very high in all the above.
Now you can have your own iPhone app custom created, quality assurred, and available on iTunes and other app stores in no time at all. It looks like agents from Intero and Century 21 already have.
Check it out, this even made Inman News Today.
For more applications by Zvika and MobileAppLoader, you can see them on iTunes Here.

Brad...
How timely. BB just got an IPhone and this post is heading in his direction. He's gonna love this. I can only be happy when he is happy. His IPhone loaded with Rain is going to make him very happy :)
TLW...ROAR!
Thank you for another great informative post today Brad.....You can bet I'll look into getting one of these.

Thanks for posting this great application. I am really excited to give it a try, but it looks like i'm not the only one. The web site is down and looks like it won't be up again until April 6 (Monday). Looks like its worth the wait!
Brad - This is pretty cool. I can't wait to get an iphone and try it out! :)
It looks like Zvika's site it getting "Rained" on today by some of that "AR LoveRain!" We may have crashed his site! Ooops lol~
I just got off the phone with him and he'll have it back up right away. Said he had a ton of traffic that was taking it's toll.
Hey Zvika, If you're reading this... it adds a whole new meaning to the phrase, "When it rains, IT POURS!" eh?? :-)
Brad, well I think you have convinced me to get an iPhone. I think it is a very cool phone and I have been afraid of the call quality with AT&T. But all this apps are way to neat to pass on. Thanks and have a great day.
So this is an app that your client installs so they can have buttons to email you or go to your website?
The only other thing I can determine from their videos and site is that clients can email you about a property and the app informs the agent where the client was (geographically) when they sent the email.
Is there anything else?
Hmmmm... Look at all the good things for iPhone users.. And I'm stuck with my BB
Matthew - you can have them customize the app to do whatever you want. You create the branding, the images, the content, the links etc. You'll notice mine does offer the feature you mention and it works great. Some of the other features I added besides the email and website links are:
Yours would have to be customized to you, your business, your company and clients needs.
I have an Iclone (an iphone clone which comes from china) that I have had for 2 years, I wonder if the apps will work on the clone. I will have to give them a try.
Brad you're a pimp. Thanks for posting this up for us iPhone nuts. Maybe this will get other agents off the fence and into an iPhone.
I would love to get one - I have only had my Blackberry for about a year and although I love it I wish I had gotten the iphone!
Hey, this is an excellent tool. Looks like the demand for this Realtor product is overwhelming the company right now. They have a note asking to check back on April 6th because an unexpected demand. It is an excellent idea, thanks for sharing.
When will be able to customize the app that you have for our own personal use?
WOW! A comment from Broker B and TLW in the same post, I'm honored! Bryant, just call me and I'll hook you up man. I've had mine over a year now, and feel the exact same way you do. Just wait, you aint seen nothing yet. Call me this weekend. :-)
Kevin - call quality is important, make sure you have good AT&T coverage in your areas. It is first and foremost a phone...or is it?
Roland - it's ok, nothing lasts forever. For what it's worth, if I didn't have an iPhone, I'd have a BlackBerry.
Robert - an iClone? Cool. Try it and let me know if it works. You can test out my app and see. Thanks.
Winston - I been called many things, but never that! lol~
Bridget - they are both great phones, but as far as applications go, it's the iPhone hands down.
Chris - your REALTOR friend will love it!!
Kim - that's actually kinda cool. Gotta love when AR members have that kinda power in a WEB 2.0 world.
Christopher - Now! Or at least when the site is back up. Looks like we overloaded them with "rain" today! hehehe....
You won't be able to customize my app, but you can create your own just like it if you want. Enjoy.
Maaan... I thought I had decided to get a BB Bold, now I am undecided again. IPhone sound pretty cool. Thanks for the info.
Brad, I LOVE my iPhone!!!!!!!! Best tech gadget I've EVER bought!!!!! This is wonderful - already downloaded your card and on my way to create mine. ~ Sharon
Hey Brad! Great info about our new app for our iPhone's. I am going to install mine on Monday when the site is back up, thanks again for sharing...right now we are selling houses so Monday will work great.
Brad - I have a couple of ideas for iPhone apps that I need to explore. This is interesting stuff - thanks!
What if my clients don't have iphones?
Brad,
I love my iPhone and it is so consumer friendly. There are so many cool AAPS being invented ..this one is way cool! Thanks for sharing!
Hi Brad,
Thanks again for blogging about MobileAppLoader.
As people mentioned in the blog the launch of the Beta attracted much attention ("Rain") and we discovered a technical issue. I have asked the team to work through the weekend to solve it.
I look forward to working with this "Active" community!

Brad, I have an iPhone and will have to look into this and the Business Card app.
Awesome. I love my iphone, too...my son with Type 1 Diabetes has uploaded the beta versions of all the amazing software and tracking programs. They really are incredible tools!
Hi Brad, That is really HOT! I did go there and they are having technical dificulties and their notice said to return on Monday April 6th. I will of course do that. Thank You for sharing this. BTW, I mentioned you in my anniversary post , I hope you noticed . :-)
Hey, I checked again this morning, it says to come back tomorrow. Will try again. I can't wait to create my own application!
