Hamptons International, one of the UK’s premier international residential agencies, today announces it has extended its iPhone app to a global audience.
The app has also been enhanced to allow users of the iPad to view properties in full screen or in high definition.
The new version of the app will enable buyers, sellers and tenants to check for properties worldwide using the GPS search locator to pinpoint an individual’s whereabouts globally.
Whether in Europe, the Middle East or Asia, consumers will be able to have immediate access to property information. The app will also instantly convert the sale or rental price of properties to a currency of choice.
Shakeel Barok, acting managing director, Hamptons International comments: “The Hamptons app is set to make life easier for Hamptons International clients across the world to search for a property. Users can find out how much it costs in their currency on whatever platform they chose to search from, whether they’re using the iPhone or iPad. We are dedicated to providing innovative solutions for our customers to enhance their property buying experience.”
In February 2010, Hamptons International became the first UK residential agency to launch an app for the iPhone. The app provides buyers, sellers and tenants the opportunity to search for property and check house prices wherever they are, whatever they are doing. The innovative move by the company to launch the app was extremely well received, surpassing 10,000 downloads in the first few months.
Alice Johnson, online marketing manager, Hamptons International added: “Hot on the heels of the success of the initial launch of the Hamptons app for iPhone we have improved the service further. We listened and have responded to feedback from our customers and continue to enhance the app. The new functionality tailors the search for customers browsing outside of the UK allowing them to select both their preferred country and currency.”
