RocketBux Mobile Phone Technology Helps Home Buyers Find Their Dream Home

By Michelle Robart, TMCnet Editor

For those currently looking to buy a house, RocketBux technology enables potential buyers to quickly and easily access home details using their mobile phone. How often has someone driven by a home for sale and tried to remember the address and realty company selling the house in order to find out how much it costs or how many bedrooms it has?

 
Thanks to the latest technology from RocketBux, Portland-based Hasson Real Estate is bringing new innovation to home selling. Using their mobile phones, potential home buyers can view home data within seconds.
 
By keying in the house-specific code listed on the real estate sign in front of a house, potential home buyers instantly get all the basic information about the house delivered right to their mobile phones. This helps save time and reduces some of the stresses associated with the home buying process.
 
Consumers can quickly decide if they want to get in touch with the real estate agent and schedule a tour of the home. In addition, links to the real estate agent’s phone and e-mail are provided in a text message, making it easy for potential home buyers to move to the next step.
 
“It’s a big convenience and benefit to all parties involved: buyer, seller and realtor,” said Bill Berger, managing principal broker at the Hasson Bend. “It’s also a great first step for the potential home buyer to engage with Hasson in a non-committal way.”
 
“Now there is no need for expensive flyers which will end up in a landfill,” explained Brian Tompkins of RocketBux. “Also, unlike a flyer, our technology enables agents to easily change home data – such as price – in real-time.”
 
RocketBux also has mobile technology agreements with retailers, resort operators, technology companies, mileage programs and card issuers.
 
RocketBux provides a scalable new way for merchants and customers to interact in a multitude of industries. RocketBux now has customers in over a dozen diverse industries. The company is based in Bend, Oregon with offices in Palo Alto (News - Alert), California and Eugene, Oregon.
 
The Hasson Company is the Pacific Northwest’s top-selling independent real estate brokerage.
