RISMEDIA, November 8, 2006?Century 21 Real Estate LLC has announced the launch of CENTURY 21 Mobile, an innovative listing and agent locator and financial resource tool designed for consumers on the go. By accessing mobile.c21.com or mobile.century21.com, consumers can now search for properties, agents, and offices, as well as utilize interactive financial tools such as a mortgage calculator, at their convenience via their PDAs, cell phones and other handheld devices with Internet access capability.

?Today’s busy consumers are looking for ways to conduct real estate research on their own time and on their own terms,’ says Tom Kunz, president and CEO, Century 21 Real Estate LLC.

?Century 21 Mobile empowers home buyers and sellers to find the right property or agent any time of the day or night. For example, consumers who may drive through a neighborhood to check for properties for sale can look up information on their favorite houses instantly, which gives them more control in the real estate process.

According to Jupiter Research, mobile phones have a U.S. penetration rate of more than 76 percent and are being used for many more things than just phone calls, particularly the fast-growing number of ?smart? phones in the market. Century 21 Mobile is a perfect complement to this evolution in communication.

The tool has been adapted to allow users to view multiple photos and property descriptions at optimum resolution. Users can quickly search for properties by city, state or zip code, and can do more refined searches based on mileage radius, price range or number of bedrooms and bathrooms. This robust search capability works on all types of cell phones and hand held devices. Users can also immediately dial a Century 21 listing agent by clicking on the sales associate?s phone number in each property listing.
