CHINO HILLS, CA – June 11, 2024 – California Regional MLS (CRMLS), the nation’s largest and most recognized multiple listing service, is now offering Finding Homes powered by AI accessibility software developer Lundy, Inc. to its more than 110,000 users via its Marketplace. Finding Homes can be accessed through any Alexa device or the Alexa app.

Finding Homes uses the most comprehensive commercially available Large Language Model along with Alexa-enabled devices to assist the visually impaired search efficiently and effectively for property listings. By incorporating 98 RESO-standardized fields to conduct searches, it can help turn scenario-specific, spoken requests into accurate search results so agents and clients don’t have to navigate datapoints and keywords on screens. With it, agents can offer more accessible services tailored to clients who need reliable search information. To use the skill, you simply have to say, “Alexa, start Finding Homes” and the platform will take care of the rest.

“We’re always in the business of helping our users service their clients in the best ways possible, and Finding Homes is a great step towards universal accessibility,” said CRMLS CEO Art Carter. “It’s an exciting use of AI that, we think, can not only help the visually impaired, but also assist any clients who prefer to search with speech rather than conducting and navigating data points on a screen.”

“I commend California Regional MLS for unlocking a vast portion of California’s real estate market and making it accessible through our Alexa skill, ‘Finding Homes,'” said Justin Lundy, CEO of Lundy, Inc. “Consumers everywhere, with and without disabilities, are turning to voice as the preferred interface, and this will put CRMLS ahead of the wave.”
