Abstract

A real estate services communication system and method for improving the efficiency of real estate home showings. The real estate communication system is typically comprised of at least one seller agent device, at least one showing agent(s) devices, and application software. When a selling agent receives a buyer request to be shown a property, the selling agent can send out the request to show the property to a selected showing agent in the selling agent's network, who can then show the buyer the property. This system provides the selling agent a more efficient way to show properties, the buyers more conveniently arranged showings, and the showing agent a convenient source of extra income.
