DMAR Creates a Smartphone App for Realtors & Homeowners  

    The Denver Metro Association of Realtors (DMAR) just released a new app called the DMAR Home Kit. Download it free from the App Store or on Google Play..

    We downloaded it, and you’ll find it useful, especially for finding vendors in multiple trades, plus discounts from some of them. Since Golden Real Estate’s own service provider app vendor went out of business, I find this a good substitute.

    You can search for vendors by key word. For example, I entered “fireplace,” “sewer” and “mortgage” and found vendors that I would recommend myself. What each vendor has in common is that they are dues-paying affiliate members of the Realtor association, which is a good measure of business ethics and responsibility. They won’t disappoint you because they want to maintain a good reputation among Realtor members. There were no vendors under “heat pump” or “electrician,” but maybe the existence of this app will encourage one or more of them to become affiliate members of DMAR.  I recommend it!

     The app also provides access to the association’s statistical reports. You can search statistics by individual city or county. Download and play with it!
