FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: APRIL 16, 2020

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. – In an effort to help real estate agents continue to succeed when the United States reopens for business, GeoData Plus and Voiceter Pro have teamed up to provide voice-driven property data reports. In an effort to help real estate agents continue to succeed when the United States reopens for business, GeoData Plus and Voiceter Pro have teamed up to provide voice-driven property data reports. Real estate subscribers of the Staten Island Multiple Listing Service (MLS), provided by the Staten Island Board of Realtors® (SIBOR), are the first in the nation to have access to this new tool.

“We are always looking for opportunities to bring leading-edge tools to our subscribers, particularly during these challenging times,” said Sandy Krueger, CEO of SIBOR, who had suggested the companies explore working together. “While today we are supporting our subscribers during the COVID-19 crisis, we look forward to their continued success when the coronavirus is no longer a vital concern.”

The Staten Island MLS voice application, created by Voiceter Pro, is available to service subscribers via Amazon’s Alexa and Google’s Assistant as a benefit provided by the MLS. Users can search for properties, hear market statistics, and look up specific listings by address among other features. Now, in addition to receiving basic listing details, users will also receive a link to the complete property data report from GeoData Plus, including ownership, building, lot, tax, zoning, flood, sales history, mortgage records and foreclosure history.

“Technology tools, such as Staten Island MLS on Alexa and Google, will help our subscribers more easily obtain property information on the go and provide a high level of service to their clients,” Krueger said.

Miguel Berger, CEO of Voiceter Pro, sees the technology as an enhancement to communication between Realtors and buyers.

“As a former real estate broker, I know that having the ability to quickly answer a question about a property is expected by buyers, whether I’m in the car, or at a showing,” Berger said. “Agents can simply ask Staten Island MLS about the property and rapidly receive detailed information. We are excited that our efforts with GeoData Plus result in the agent receiving a deeper, more complete property report.”

Erik Wind, president of GeoData Plus, said, “During these challenging times, it is gratifying to be able to continue to serve our clients. We hope this new way to access our detailed property reports – by simply asking about the property – will help Staten Island’s real estate professionals succeed now and when the housing market safely resumes.”
