KW Real Estate 4+

I love this app, especially because it allows me to save searches and add homes I like to collections, kind of like Pinterest. I can have a collection for good investment properties, homes I’d like to purchase, and anything I think my mom would like, since I am looking for her too. And I can name these collections anything. As for the searches, I can have how ever many saved searches and with one click, visit them so I don’t have to plug in my criteria every time I open the app! It also helps that I can message my realtor in real time! I think anyone who is tired of the usual home search apps out there calling you, texting you, emailing you the second you click on anything, should use this app instead. Info only goes to your realtor and your info isn’t being sold!

I had the best experience when I bought my last home and my realtor was Jesse Clarkson with Keller Williams and he was the best associate I’ve ever worked with hands down. He always had every answer to my questions and was extremely respectful and knowledgeable of his field and was always available whenever I had questions or wanted to see a property. I recommend him to everyone I meet looking for a home because he truly will get you the best deal with the best customer experience as well!

I tried to use this app rather than the website because I figured it’d give a better user experience, but it’s only a slight improvement which is disappointing.

This app freezes & crashes regularly. I face this problem very often when I’m simply trying to open a house that appears in my saved search results. Also, the performance of showing the full list of search results is very slow. After clicking the “View all” button, a “No search results” message is displayed which isn’t valid because several houses are displayed on the short view of the list. I’ve noticed if I wait long enough (too long, really), sometimes the results will display or the app will just give up and force close.

The price range fields are not a wide enough range. The field could at least be editable and allow for the user to type the desired price themselves instead of having to pick from options that may not be the exact criteria I’d like. I’m able to manually type a price on the website itself though.

I’ve also noticed that many houses are listed as condos, so excluding the condos option from the search filters hides houses that are actually listed as a condo. I don’t think that’s an issue with the app in particular, but is definitely a problem with the way new listings are added.
