DROdio Real Estate, Inc. Launches New Technology Tools To Enhance Online Home Searching

Alexandria, VA (PRWEB) November 1, 2007 -- DROdio Real Estate, Inc. (http://www.drodio.com), a premier real estate firm based in Alexandria, VA, has unveiled several tools which offer unique search benefits to home buyers, making the home searching process more transparent, easier and more productive for home buyers.

"Our goal is to enable consumers with access to free tools and information," said Daniel R. Odio, the owner and principal broker of DROdio Real Estate. "I became a REALTOR because I had a bad experience buying a home. As a technology entrepreneur, I knew there had to be a better way," he emphasized.

DROdio Real Estate just released "The Best Home Search Ever" (shortcut at www.TBHSE.com) which allows buyers to search for foreclosure properties - something no other search site does.

"We search the MLS listing notes for keywords like 'foreclosure', 'short sale', 'REO' and many others. Searching the listing notes is something only our site does; you can't find this powerful tool on any other home search site," Odio said.

In addition to the foreclosure functionality, The Best Home Search Ever allows users to search for properties that have been on the market for many months and that have dropped in price by a certain amount since originally listed.

"We call it 'The Best Home Search Ever' for a good reason," Odio said. "It's the best online tool available for buyers who want to do their own research."

The site currently searches 93,711 homes -- the entire MLS in the Washington, DC metro area, including Virginia and Maryland, and will be expanding nationwide in 2008.

DROdio Real Estate is also beta testing a Google-map based search tool, "Birds Eye Search" which displays properties as thumbtacks on a Google map, complete with a Metro Map overlay so users can visually find properties near a Metro station.

DROdio Real Estate is a pioneer in melding technology with real estate. Mr. Odio has been featured on TLC, The Discovery Channel, CNN, CNBC, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post and many other publications for his progressive use of technology.

Motion Sensor Home Security Cameras
Many security cameras do not record well in the dark. This implies that a slinky presence can get away with any deed as long as the dark provides a shield. This is where a security camera with motion sensor comes in. The motion sensor triggers an automatic response as soon as it picks up a movement in its vicinity. Some of these cameras come equipped with floodlights that power up as soon as a motion is registered, flooding the area with light and catching the culprit in the act. This is further enhanced by the fact that a security camera with motion sensor often offers a connection to a TV or computer monitor. As soon as the sensor is triggered, images of the perimeter can be captured immediately.
