Are you owner of a “Crackberry” or are you considering adding this powerful little tool to your real estate arsenal? The BlackBerry is a SmartPhone that seems virtually designed for the busy broker, Realtor and agent, with plenty of customizable features and support for downloadable applications that can make your life a lot easier while you’re on the road.
What the BlackBerry does is combine a cellphone, PDA, laptop and camera into a handheld mobile device. For the real estate agent who is juggling a full schedule of home showings, client appointments, MLS monitoring and more, it may just be the ideal co-ordinator of one's working and personal life.
Google Maps can give you a list of nearby shops. Google Maps also provides you with an additional security feature: Google Latitude, which can help your office keep track of where you are (and with privacy controls that make sure that only people you allow can access your location).
