Mobile Real Estate: House Shopping by Phone
December 15, 2007 – Fizber.com, a FSBO website, launched a mobile version of its site. The pages have been optimized for mobile usage – short and light-weight pages – which makes the usage of the site efficient on a maximum of phones.
The idea behind this new service is to provide an easy way for house shoppers to get information on properties when they are on the go – quickly compare the price of a house, or find contact details of an owner. Of course, one can enter in an address and get the data that is available via Fizber.com on their regular web browser. However, if people are driving, walking, riding around and see a home of interest wondering how much it costs, how many rooms it has and who is the owner, the lightweight mobile version of the site designed for their mobile devices is of great help.
The mobile version available at m.fizber.com displays almost everything, formatted for the small device, horizontal scrolling is dropped, for example, and everything goes vertical. So next time you’re walking the dog and pass by your dream house, check to see if it’s within your price range.
“We are pleased to tell our clients that our website is cell phone friendly, and that they can go to Fizber.com from their phone to look at our listings,” says Julia Foster, Vice President of Marketing at Fizber.com. “Real estate listings adapt perfectly to the mobile environment, and I think in the near future having a mobile website will be an essential communications tool for any business.”
“It is nice to drive a neighborhood and see all the data on a screen with all the relevant listing data, rather than have to jump out of my car and grab a flyer that may or may not be there,” says Bill M., a house hunter from Miami, FL.
