These Real Estate Tools Caught My Eye

November 02, 2016 (posted by Jennifer Campbell, Home Staging Calgary)

It seems like every day more information becomes available through tech online and the use of apps. That includes a whole range of helpful real estate tools too. Here are a few that caught my attention.
 
As a busy Calgary stager, I don’t spend all that much time online usually. That said, I appreciate how technology can add value in different ways to our daily life and work routines. And when it comes time to buy and sell homes, why not use tech to help make wiser decisions and manage time more efficiently?
 
In addition to all the property search and financing info available online and through apps, these three real estate tools may be helpful to you in the home buying, selling, and moving process:
 
Housecreep:
Curious about whether homes that you’re considering buying (or homes in a particular neighbourhood)have a “less than ideal” past? Housecreep is a real estate tool that can help illuminate the story. Start by selecting Calgary as your broad search and then hone in to a neighbourhood view, or enter an exact street address. Common results show grow ops or remediation, but I have also seen references to other criminal activity. Always practice due diligence by checking with your realtor, police, or other reputable source before trusting what you read about properties online.
 
Sortly:
Moving can be stressful, so the more organized you can be, the smoother it can go. This app offers a moving checklist, labels, photo and video to keep your stuff sorted through the moving process.Outside of your move, it’s also a great tool for inventory.
 
Virtuo:
Created by fellow Albertans, this concierge service can help on moving day and beyond. And it’s FREE. Check it out.
 
I’d love to hear what other real estate tools you have found helpful. And, if you are planning to sell your Calgary detached home or condo, I invite you to find out more about our “non-techy” staging services and contact me, Jen Campbell at Set Your Stage, where we get proven results for our clients.
