But, along the way, we kept hearing from people who needed help throughout their journey. Like, people who worried about missing out on the perfect home, simply because they couldn’t search online for what really mattered to them. Everywhere it was the same: # of beds and bathrooms, square feet, and price range. It was nothing like the conversations people had with an agent, or their friends or partner. And that\u2019s when we knew we could do something different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, today we launched a first-of-its-kind home search engine<\/a>.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n We focused 100% on what a new home buyer might need, from when they\u2019re finding a place to making an offer. Let\u2019s say you\u2019re looking for a new home in Seattle<\/a>: You might start with the size or the price or a general area, but that still means you\u2019ve got to sift through about 500+ places to find the few you really want. By leveraging the new functionality of OpenAI’s ChatGPT and some clever engineering by our team, we made it possible to search for things like a high-end kitchen or views of the water. You can even drop a little emoji if there\u2019s something you\u2019re really hoping for\u2014for me, that\u2019s a roof deck \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n But that\u2019s just the start. We know that the information you bring to the negotiation table can make or break your chances of both winning a home and getting a great price. So we are launching Tomo Negotiation Insights<\/strong>, which gives people the data they need\u2014like home seller names, seller\u2019s mortgage details, and estimated home equity data so you have a better idea how much the seller will make after fees. And you\u2019d want to know if you\u2019re negotiating with a seasoned investor or a lawyer, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n It finally puts buyers and sellers on an equal playing field, and that can be a game-changer for so many people. It\u2019s the info that pros in the industry already use to make decisions about what to offer and how to negotiate. It only seemed fair that everyone should have access to the same info, as well as free professional advice and guidance on how to use it.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n So, take a look at the new tomo.com. We’d love to hear what you think<\/a> of it. And keep an eye out for what\u2019s coming next. We\u2019re just getting started over here.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/tomo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screen-Shot-2024-02-16-at-8.36.23-AM.png\")
