Frequently asked questions

Do you have more questions? Please let us know in the comments. We’ll continue to update our FAQ section and this article with the latest real estate apps that we find useful and worth downloading.

What are the best real estate apps for buyers?

The top real estate apps for buyers include Zillow (for its extensive listing database), Redfin (for real-time updates) and Trulia (for detailed neighborhood insights). In addition, several general-purpose apps can be used for other facets of real estate marketing to buyers, such as Hootsuite and Flick for social media management, Eventbrite for community events and Slack for team management.

Finally, several real estate marketing platforms like Real Geeks provide a client-facing mobile app that syncs with the desktop version. This way, your buyers can search for properties on an app you control, and you can update a shared database as soon as leads come in and streamline the follow-up process from anywhere.

What is the most used real estate app with the most listings?

Generally, Zillow stands out as having the most extensive property listing database. It’s considered one of the best real estate apps and is used by some 224 million people monthly. For this reason, agents shouldn’t disregard Zillow or Zillow Premier Agent, which likely offers one of the best advantages of participating in the Zillow ecosystem. Using Zillow Premier Agent helps you connect with real, eager buyers. Anecdotally, agents who use Zillow Premier Agent to find leads report their prospects are more ready to buy.
