MyRealPage has just released an android supported mobile search (as well as iphone, version 3.0 of the OS). It’s a fully geo-location aware search that locates and can “follow” the user as they walk or drive. MyRealPage provides hosting for websites and listing solutions so access to the application happens through one of our customers. This application fully leverages the HTML5 standard that has been implemented in the lastest “Cupcake” build for Android.

More details on MyRealPage company blog.

Our company is developing mobile real estate search for iPhone (native) and Android. We have applications in beta testing now, and hope to release to consumers as soon as possible.

Google is amazing and cutting edge. I wonder where does it stop for Google? Pretty soon I’m going to be driving a Google SUV and shopping for my clothes at the The Google Guy store.

If there’s on thing I would tell Goggle, it would be to take a hint from Apple and get a better interface design. As much as I love Goggle their weakens as alway lied in their interface design. The better the interface design the quicker the chances of adoption.

Looks like it’s time to get to work on cool apps. I can’t wait to see what everyone else comes up with.

Looks very cool and I guess the features could be endless. I can imagine an agent walking out of a showing with a client and having asking their client to take a look at their Android powered phone. If the client knows they want to view homes in the neighborhood they are in, an agent simply pulls up their exact location (via GPS) on the phone. Next their location is overlayed with heat map of pricing to give the client a sense of prices in the neighborhood. Click another button and it shows all homes for sale on the map, click on a house for sale and you get driving directions to the house. Click on the house and you get detailed home information as well as pictures, YouTube videos, a Google Fly-by via Google Earth. Click another button that brings up sex offenders locations on a map via a national database (Megan’s Law). Click another button that brings up Census data for the neighborhood, and click another button that shows the avg car insurance price for the neighborhood. The amout of information in the app will be priceless. This would be future mobile real estate. Possible Android real estate app on the way?

Dave from the REA Group here. We’ve been experimenting with mobile for a few years now and it has never taken off. I believe the iPHone and Android will change that, and that it will happen almost overnight. Marissa Mayer over at Google told GigaOm that the launch of the iPhone doubled the mobile use of Google Maps overnight. We can expect similar exponential growth in mobile real estate, IMHO.

Looks like Google is taking over everything. Sure wish this open platform allows the EKEY people to add the ability to open a lock box with the Iphone so I can ditch my Treo.
