Where Real Estate Gets Its Dirt

MetroList adds voice search to popular MLS portal, MetroList.com

MetroList Unveils Revolutionary Voice-Activated Real Estate Search Platform for Consumers

“MetroList CEO Dave Howe highlighted the significance of this launch: “This isn’t just an enhancement—it’s a transformative leap forward in real estate technology. We are thrilled to offer the convenience of voice-enabled commands, setting a new standard for property search in the real estate industry.”

Heath Craig, Co-Founder of SaleCore, echoed this sentiment: “Partnering with Lundy on this project has been a natural fit. MetroList’s commitment to innovation aligns perfectly with our vision for the future of real estate technology. We’re excited to see the industry embrace this powerful new property-search tool.”

Pretty rad. When I just asked for a zip code, the experience was super fast and kind of magical. Pretty cutting-edge if you ask me, and it’s great to see an MLS organization like MetroList launch this type of innovation. It shows what good partnerships with vendors can create.

Minor quibbles:

Search requests beyond zip codes with more criteria (beds, baths, price range) take a bit longer.

I couldn’t get it to work on my Safari browser, but it did work on Google Chrome.

When I click the microphone button to start talking, the icon does change color, but I think the button state needs to more clearly indicate that it is in the “on” mode.

Similarly, when you click the microphone to turn it off and start searching, there is no status message to indicate that it is processing your search request. This can feel a bit odd, especially if the search results are not immediate.

Also, in every search I did with a price range, it asked me to repeat the price range.
