meilleursagents.com Mobile Android App For Paris

Last week leading French property portal seloger.com was the latest to reveal an iPhone App, with “push notifications“, bringing it in line with competitor logic-immo.com, which has had its own iPhone App in the market for several months.

This week we can report that France’s meilleursagents.com has taken things one step further by releasing a mobile android application. The app displays the property value of every single building in Paris in price per square meter.

The “layar empowered augmented reality app” allows users to see at street level, through their mobile phone camera, the value or prices of real estate in Paris.

Users launch the application, place their phone in front of them and steer toward the building of their choice. GPS identifies the location and orientation of the phone and estimates of house prices from meilleursagents.com then appear in real time on the phone screen, above the camera image.

The company claim this is the first application of augmented reality real estate in France.
