My cell phone has many capabilities, most of which I can't figure out.

But people who aren't as technologically inept are now able to use cell phones to search for real estate as the industry starts to dial-up more sophisticated services.

Fresno-based Guarantee Real Estate, for example, contracted with Smarter Agent, an application that allows people to get details and photos of houses for sale.

Once the application is loaded onto a cell phone, it can be used to get information on homes for sale in any area of the country where Smarter Agent has access to listing data.

Now, if I can only figure out how to stop butt dialing my daughter at school.
