Discover Realcomp Listings Now Accessible through Alexa Voice-Activated Searches

Realcomp listings can now be accessed through Alexa voice-activated searches, providing a convenient way for consumers and other REALTORS® to access property data quickly and easily.

Users can now share their property "wish lists" with Alexa using natural language. Simply say the command "Alexa, start finding homes" to access matching properties and their details. Additionally, Alexa devices with screens will also display listing photos for a visually pleasing experience.

Initially designed to assist those with visual impairments, this innovative voice technology effectively conveys all the essential details that any potential buyer would want to know about a property, getting this information directly from the MLS.

Alexa, Amazon's cloud-based voice service, is accessible on over 100 million devices nationwide from Amazon and third-party manufacturers. As per Amazon, 25% of U.S. households already own at least one Alexa device.

This service makes single-family on-market Michigan listings of Realcomp Brokers and Agents available to consumers at no extra cost – an exclusive for Realcomp MLS Subscribers.

To begin exploring Realcomp listings using this technology, simply say "Alexa, start finding homes" into your device. Alexa will assist you from that point on!
