Follow on Google News | Kim Clark Explains the Benefits of Technology When Buying a HomeWhen most people think “green” in real estate, ecologically- Smartphones have streamlined almost everything we do, putting us in constant contact with friends and family, colleagues, and nearly limitless information. With the ability to research anything right at our fingertips, it’s easier than ever to access and aggregate information while on the go – and with less paper waste. From apps designed to help you get the most out of a house hunt to immediate document turnaround via mobile email, the process of buying a house has never been more efficient or convenient. Today’s technology makes for highly effective communication between you and your real estate agent. Gone are the days of slogging through paper listings in an agent’s office before beginning your home search. Imagine a house search in which you can receive instant information from your agent about homes that might interest you – including property details and photos – all sent right to your phone. And once you’ve found that dream house, your agent can communicate your interest immediately to the seller’s agent and get the ball rolling on a sale. Paperless transactions require less time, so there’s less waiting involved during the process. Perhaps most convenient is the option to initial and sign multiple forms and documents online rather than relying on ponderous printouts. Certain agents are more conversant in high-tech real estate processes than others. Real estate agents who are designated as eCertified can provide you with access to online alternatives to traditional, paper-heavy transactions. eCertified agents have the training and skills necessary to create and manipulate electronic versions of documents and contracts and to manage your file electronically via secure document storage, allowing for remote access and with less time spent in an office. And since your search for a new home can’t be accomplished from the confines of an office, your agent’s increased mobility benefits you. Eliminating paperwork gives your agent more time to spend focusing on you. If you haven’t already, investigate the apps available to help you in your home search. Find out how “green” your agent is – talk to him or her about the different ways in which technology can benefit you on your path to owning a new home.
