We’re thrilled to announce our first Android app was both accepted and launched by Amazon’s Appstore yesterday.  It’s already on the move after rising 3 spots overnight in the Real Estate category.

Visit Real Estate Answers on Amazon’s Appstore and download it for free.

We first opened our auction platform to other websites last year.   Inman News picked up the story in July calling it a “widget”.  However, it’s more than just a “widget”.  It’s a full on, double rainbow web service that can be seamlessly weaved into a website to add any type of real estate agent finder/matching feature you can possibly dream up.   Since the launch of the Auction API, we’ve added two partners and have begun discussions with another website whose monthly traffic is consistently above 500K unique visitors about integration early next year.

Our second Auction API partner, ExpertHomeOffers, went live with its integration yesterday. ExpertHomeOffers is using our Auction API to automate the matching of their buyers and sellers with RealtyBaron agents based on a referral fee paid at closing. But RealtyBaron’s platform doesn’t stop at just matching consumer and agent. RealtyBaron also tracks the progress of the referral on behalf of ExpertHomeOffers to ensure referrals are paid when a sale transaction is closed from the referral.

ExpertHomeOffers.com is a company that connects motivated home buyers and sellers with local real estate professionals nation wide. The company was formed in 2007 in an effort to bring quality and honesty to the real estate lead generation industry. Since its inception the company continues to consistently increase its placement on the major search engines and lead volume.

Welcome aboard, ExpertHomeOffers!

….is coming soon and it’s going to be BIG!

I’m recruiting volunteers from the RE.net to sit on the inaugural board of governors. A summary of the AgentRank™ Board of Governors:

1. Responsible for maintaining the data point composition and weighting of the AgentRank™ algorithm.
2. Eighteen (18) high-profile real estate professionals located in the United States actively serve on the board of governors at any time.
3. Six (6) high-profile real estate professionals located in the United States sit as alternates in the event any sitting governor cannot perform duties, i.e. leaves real estate business, conflict of interest, etc.
4. Governors are granted an undetermined amount of quasi-currency each quarter of active duty which can be redeemed for stock options equity in RealtyBaron, Inc. in the future.
5. Initially, governors are appointed by RealtyBaron, Inc. but will be elected by the community in the long-term.

If you’re interested in volunteering, please contact me for more information: mdugger (at) gmail (dot) com

I’m sorry about the tech-ladened posts from my other blog appearing in the Baron Briefs feed. The two feeds got crossed last night.

But, hey, what Baron Briefs reader didn’t want to learn about Java errors and Aspect programming? (Okay, you can all put your hands down now.)
