Blogger finds My Mobile Witness a must-have for real estate agents.
Sunday, September 27th, 2009We have come across a few blogs written by real estate agents that feel strongly about the importance of real estate agents using My Mobile Witness. This is encouraging feedback especially knowing that the idea for My Mobile Witness came from our concern about the safety of real estate agents. For more about where the idea for the service came from go tohttp://www.mymobilewitness.com/about/.
One real estate blogger in Wisconsin had this to say about My Mobile Witness…
This could definitely be a must have for everyone. I know personal safety can be an issue for everyone and especially for Realtors, as we have to meet people that we do not know all the time in places unfamiliar with us. This could be used not only as a deterrent but hopefully as a way to just get out of trouble!

Another real estate blogger in Florida has this to say…
My Mobile Witness is an excellent safety tool I learned about this morning. Often real estate agents meet someone at a property (whether it’s a potential buyer or a potential seller). Send a street sign, a house number - anything that may be relevant if you don’t return.

Real estate agents are consistently meeting new people at locations maybe they have not been to before. It is not uncommon for the real estate agent and the client to be the only to people at a location. The general public can be using My Mobile Witness in many of the ways that a real estate agent would use My Mobile Witness. So the next time that you are selling or buying something from someone on Craigslist take a quick picture of the other person. If you don’t feel comfortable with taking their picture, then take a picture of the location. Or you can even send My Mobile Witness a short text message with information on your location.
