HomeSight, a Decatur, Ill.-based company, has announced an agreement with Apex Software to expand its interactive floor plan and virtual tour services to a larger audience.
HomeSight offers rendered floor plans that are linked with property information and photos, allowing sellers and their agents to provide an online "open house."
"By partnering with Apex Software, HomeSight now has the resources and software tools to expand our Realtor support services nationwide and beyond," stated Tom Brinkoetter, HomeSight president.
Randall H. Garrett, CEO for Apex Software, said in a statement that the Apex's industry relationships and experience should assist HomeSight's expansion.
HomeSight is expanding rapidly and is always looking for “State Certified” Appraisers to inspect properties for the purpose of drawing an as-built floor plan and shooting pictures. Think of this as an opportunity to supplement your existing appraisal business. However, many of the appraisers who do field work for HomeSight have transitioned into working for us on a full-time basis as Independent Contractors. You can get started in this new and exciting business for a very small investment and if HomeSight has or obtains an exclusive contract to provide service in your area, we will even guarantee you a minimum amount of work.

The founder of HomeSight is a state-certified appraiser and knows that in order to ensure both accuracy and quality of the products and services, highly qualified people must be utilized. Experienced appraisers already know how to measure homes, therefore we can get you up and running and making money in just a few days. We measure all homes to secondary market guidelines just as you do now in your appraisals.
How the system works:
- Real Estate Agent places a service request on the HomeSight RSS website.
- The order is assigned to the proper field person for that area.
- The field person makes appointment to inspect the home and enters the appointment date and time into the HomeSight RSS website.
- Field person visits the property, draws the home as-built, shoots still photos and 360° photos.
- Field person draws the home using Apex software.
- Field person transfers photos and finished Apex drawing to HomeSight’s server.
HomeSight employs processors that actually build and post the tours for the real estate agent. Once you have transferred the files your job is done! The average home requires less than one-hour field time using our system. In addition you will be assigned a processor for your market that will ensure that you are working efficiently. Think of it as having an assistant that is always there when you need them.
