If you are ready to look for a home and want to control your home search with a tool that is vastly superior than what is available to the general public, click on the Home Buyers Scouting Report (HBSR) link above. I have looked at all of the search systems that are currently available for buyers. HBSR is a great user-friendly tool. A business partner has made it available to a very few Realtors in the area. I am fortunate to be his partner and so I can offer it to you. Here are some of the unique features that make HBSR superior:
Favorites-you can save your favorite listings to a folder.
Photos-you can view all of the photos of a listing without having to open up that listings, a big time saver
Notepad-take notes on a specific listing in your folder to refer to later. Your partner can view the same listings and add notes.
Demographics-get neighborhood demographics with a click for any listing
Mapping-locate a listing more easily with superior directional tools.
Track Listings-you can note price changes in a listing, and note when sold and at what price. This is a great device for understanding the market and particular neighborhoods.
Once you register you can modify your search after my partner, Eric Fitzgerald of Flagstar Bank emails you your personal password to the HBSR website. Eric will then conform that you are using the site optimally and from then on, you are in charge of your home search. HBSR is a terrific tool with features not found elsewhere.
