Jim Reppond noticed that Jim Cronin, Greg Swann and I were listed as answers for the question “Who is the current President of the National Association of Realtors?”.

I guess the author was hard-pressed to come up with the 3 most ridiculous contenders for the title of NAR President. Greg’s gotta love this….

Coldwell Banker today announced the launch of the first-ever international home search application for iPhone and Android-powered devices. The mobile application enables users to search for property listings and recent home sales in 28 countries and the results of these searches as well as the search itself can be saved in a personalized ‘My Coldwell Banker’ account newly created from the user’s smartphone or added to an existing account with coldwellbanker.com by logging into the site directly from the handheld device.

Features of the new application include:

1. GPS-based search to locate nearby homes for sale, open houses and recent homes sold.
2. Ability to sort recently sold properties by location, price and sale date.
3. Option to view search results in list form or on a variety of maps including street, hybrid and satellite that are marked with “clickable” Coldwell Banker Real Estate icons.
4. Detailed property listings that include images and a slideshow view.
5. Direct dial and e-mail functions from the user’s mobile handset to the local Coldwell Banker Real Estate listing agent associated with each property.
6. Real-time notifications of new properties and open houses identified through the user’s customized saved searches.
