Technology Trends from the NAR Conference: Part 1 – Mobile Internet
I have spent the last couple of days wandering around the NAR Convention in San Diego. This annual love-fest is attended by thousands of realtors from around the US with a few foreigners thrown in for good measure. While each NAR convention has the obligatory presentations, it is the expo and its 400+ exhibitors that are of most interest.
Amongst the beads, bags, and books are a range of technology providers each offering a potential “silver bullet” to a realtor’s marketing needs. I therefore thought it would make sense to cover some of the technology “silver bullets” that were at the Conference.
The first cab off the rank is mobile internet for realtors. Our next edition will look at the rise of video tours.
