/24-7PressRelease/ - PHOENIX, AZ, February 11, 2006 -- Cellit, LLC, the premier provider of self-service mobile marketing solutions, announced today the release of several new features for its real estate text messaging service, House4Cell. House4Cell can now deliver photos to the phones of inquiring home buyers, along with additional information via email or FAX. Buyers can even click a button to directly connect to the listing agent via its "click-to-call" functionality.
"Today's home buyers are sophisticated and demanding," said Cellit President, David Wachs. "They want instant information about the property. We feel a picture is worth a thousand words. That is why House4Cell now takes the buyer inside the home, by providing photos of the interior of the property along with all of the textual information. That is just one of the many new features of House4Cell. House4Cell now turns the cell phone into a richly interactive experience for the homebuyer."
Real estate agents hang House4Cell riders from the signs of their listings, informing homebuyers of the availability of instant information. Prospective home buyers see these signs and simply text message a short, custom code to a special House4Cell phone number. Within seconds, all of the essential property information -- including price, square footage and amenities -- are immediately sent back to the buyer's phone, along with photos. Buyers can request more information via email or FAX or click a button to call the agent. With every inquiry, the real estate agent is immediately notified of the lead.
"As the housing market boom slows," continued Mr. Wachs, "agents are going to need tools to differentiate themselves from the competition. House4Cell does this, providing the richest user experience while capturing leads for the agent. We are excited to continue to improve our service. After all, it's all about selling more homes."
House4Cell works on over 96% of all cell phones in the United States today. Photos and "click-to-call" are currently supported on Cingular, ATandT ("Cingular Blue") and Sprint phones. Additional carriers for these advanced services will be added soon.
House4Cell was featured as a "Cool Tool" in the February issue of REALTOR(R) Magazine. More information on House4Cell can be found at http://www.House4Cell.com.
