The most awesome, must-have real estate agent apps for savvy agents who are ready to reach a bigger audience

As a successful real estate agent, you’re constantly on the go! You’re creating listings, planning open houses and meeting with clients. You also go the extra mile to connect with homebuyers wherever they are looking. That’s a lot to keep up with, and it’s why mobile real estate agent apps are key for engaging contacts, following-up and cultivating leads, and keeping some of the best multi-tasking tools within easy access.

Apps aren’t just for your convenience, though. A survey by the National Association of Realtors found that “Eighty-seven percent of millennials and Gen X buyers used an agent, and they were also the most likely to use mobile or tablet applications and mobile or tablet search engines during their search.”

We’ve gathered the best real estate agent apps to help you simplify and streamline every part of the job!

Real Estate agent apps for finding and connecting with new leads

1. Homesnap

Homesnap brings a new level of instantaneous fun and connection to real estate. Recently named “the most addictive real estate app” by HGTV, Homesnap allows users to take a photo of any home nationwide and then receive information on it in real time.

While that’s obviously lots of fun for the homebuyer, Homesnap is also packed with useful metrics and tracking features for agents. Sending private instant messages to a client which are accessible through the app or text notifications delivered to their phone eliminates the frustration of searching through your recent text messages to match numbers with names and properties. When you reach out to clients and leads, the conversation will be connected directly to the properties you’ve discussed!

Homesnap is free for iOS and Android.

2. Houzz

Houzz is renowned social networking app and community with over 35 million unique users per month. It’s a great way to reach new leads like current homeowners who are preparing to list or those in the planning stages who are looking to buy within a couple of years.

Approximately 15 percent of people using Houzz are planning to buy a home in the next two years, and 10 percent of them are planning to build a custom home. Get on their radar with a built-in sense of their style, budget, and preferences or build a lead base with folks who are looking to renovate and flip properties.

Houzz is free for iOS and Android.
