- April 27, 1991 -- RealData announced today that it has begun shipping its
- seventh real estate application for the Apple Macintosh, Real Estate
- Connections.
-
- The package combines Danny Goodman's Connections, a personal information
- manager from Concentrix Technology, with special RealData features and
- databases designed specifically to benefit professional real estate
- salespeople.
-
- According to RealData's president, Frank Gallinelli, "Danny Goodman's
- personal information manager, Connections, provides us with an ideal
- platform on which to build this powerful vertical-market application.
- Connections delivers outstanding facilities for managing appointments and
- reminders, as well as for contact management and data import. From there,
- we have added a series of real estate databases, form letter functions and
- other features to build an integrated system that gives the salesperson a
- real competitive advantage."
-
- Gallinelli added that an early user of the program defined its benefit best
- when he observed, "Information is vital, but all the data in the world
- does a salesperson no good at all if he doesn't act on it. Real Estate
- Connections is so valuable because it makes the link between information
- and action."
-
- Real Estate Connections users can keep track of extensive information on
- prospects, farm territories, properties, listings and mortgages as well as
- phone calls, appointments and reminders all in one easy-to-use package.
- Pop-up dialogs make it simple to set criteria for retrieving information.
- A salesperson can then use selected data records to produce reports,
- mailing labels or even personalized form letters. A mortgage file allows
- the user to store data about available loans and helps him or her
- pre-qualify prospects for those loans.
-
- The Real Estate Connections user can track the progress of a personal
- listing or plan out the events that will lead from a binder to a closing
- just by entering the data on the listing or closing progress screen. The
- information manager helps the salesperson keep track of important dates,
- and can send annotated follow-up reminders from the databases to the
- salesperson's calendar.
-
- The customizeable telephone directory enables users to dial calls with just
- the click of a mouse and keep a detailed history of every telephone
- contact.
-
- Real Estate Connections is priced at $395 and includes Danny Goodman's
- Connections. The program runs on the Macintosh Classic II, LC and LC-II,
- PowerBook 140 or 170, II-series and Quadra. A commercial real estate
- version of the product is expected to ship this summer.
-
- Founded in 1981, RealData has provided Macintosh software for the real
- estate industry since 1984. The company is best known for its Real Estate
- Investment Analysis, Version 7.0 and for Property Management Ill.
