Great Ocean Road Real Estate goes Mobile.

Considered to be a first in Australian real estate Great Ocean Road Real Estate has combined with local business Mohbe.com in giving house hunters the option a mobile phone using QR Code technology.

Great Ocean Road Real Estate and its four agencies in Lorne, Apollo Bay, Aireys Inlet and Torquay will include a QR Code in their print media. This will enable browsers to scan the QR code and go directly to the advertised property. From here the house hunter can view up to 26 images including floor plans, Google Maps, auction dates, inspection times and pricing. Other features include a live click to call, sms or email the agent.

What is a QR Code?

A QR Code is 2 dimensional barcode. When scanned using a mobile phone it will reveal the information hidden behind it. In Great Ocean Road Real Estates case it will be a live web address that the browser can click on and go directly to that property.
