Online real estate brokerage ZipRealty is joining the iPhone scene with a dedicate app. Using it, “house hunters” in 4,897 cities and neighborhoods across the U.S. can search for available homes and view photos, prices and estimated values.
In addition, the application enables a buyer to contact his or her ZipRealty agent with a tap of a button. But before you start negotiating, ZipReality offers search results displayed on a Google Map, showing list of recently sold homes in the neighborhood with sale prices.
Best of all, existing ZipRealty.com account holders can take advantage of the cloud computing – homes bookmarked on the web version can be easily accessed from an iPhone app.
Personally I’m not looking to buy a home in the U.S. but I like ZipRealty’s approach. The application is super useful and it’s free! AppStore link is here.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
