The Federal Reserve rushed in with a big interest rate cut last week. Wall Street drove itself crazy responding with rises and falls, producing 2008's first week that ended up.

The rate you've been offered is above the national average, which fell to 5.48 percent last week for a 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage. That is the lowest point in four years. It is very important to stay well informed and updated daily.

Few days ago I came across a news letter about the CellularRE marketing tool... I see a fantastic opportunity to stay in top of the business... easy, fast and efficient. CellularRE offers cellular marketing to the real estate industry.

 How it works?

"A builder, broker, or agent can send out a text message alerting any customer in their database about a new listing that just came on the market. Within 1-3 minutes (depending on carrier), the customer will receive a text message via the cell phone or PDA describing the property, including price, size, location, number of bedrooms and baths for residential properties. For commercial space, clients will get texted price per square foot and amenities. The customer can then click on a link on their phone which will bring them automatically to a wireless website that was built for that listing (through the admin/software program CellularRE provides them to use online), and they can view photos, floor-plans and more in-depth listing information. If the customer is interested in the property and desires to see it right away, the customer can click another link right on the text message or wireless website on their phone, and the broker/agent/builder will be dialed immediately to schedule the appointment."

Plan Option varies from $14.99/mo. to $199.00/mo.
