Best Tablet Apps for Real Estate Agents

January 26 2014

point2 best tablet apps for real estateLast year, we created a post entitled "9 Apps for Real Estate Agents On the Go." It was very popular but, in hindsight, there was a grievous oversight... it was 100% focused on smartphone apps!

While we all love our smartphones, tablets are increasingly prevalent in the marketplace today. In many cases, especially for real estate agents, they're easier and more convenient to use.

Would you rather show a client pictures of your new listing on your phone or on your iPad? We thought so.

In light of this development, we think it's high time for an app update. Here, without further ado, are 8 of the best tablet apps for real estate agents. Click the iOS or Android link to the right of the app name to start downloading!

1. Dropox (iOS, Android)

If there's one app we think everyone needs on every device, it's Dropbox. Dropbox lets you store and share documents, photos, videos and more all for free. Simply upload your files to Dropbox to access them from any device. Even if your computer/phone/tablet gets damaged, everything saved in your Dropbox will be safe and sound! Get more space for free when you refer a friend.

2. DocuSign Ink (iOSAndroid)

This app was on our list of smartphone apps, but we think you should have it on your tablet, too. Make the signature process easier for on-the-go buyers and sellers by downloading DocuSign Ink – a secure app that allows you to sign documents and get signatures electronically, eliminating the need for complicated scheduling and stacks of papers. Sign and submit an offer from your local coffee shop? Yes, you can!
