Everybody loves relaxing at home and spending a little time online, even Dracula! Despite the fact that when he shops online, he keeps clicking on the button that says “Your account” even he knows that when looking online for his next castle that connection strength is an all important factor! That's why in this exciting version update version we have reinstated the nbn connectivity information on Allhomes listings. Just keep your eyes peeled for properties connected to the nbn access network when you are browsing.

We've been working hard to give people more insights about the value of a property they're considering. When searching on the map you can now see properties that have recenlty sold, which helps you value nearby properties for sale.
Our brand new suburb profiles and past sales section (which can be found in the More screen) gives you access to millions of past sales records and market insights.
The Insights screen (look for the "Insights" button on the map search) gives you an overview of the market at a suburb or district level: showing you median sales price for houses and units as well as their trend over the last 12 months.

In the town where I was born
Lived a man who built in Reid
And he told us of his life
In the land of shrubberies
So we saved our search online
Till we found a block of green
And we lived north of the lake
On our quarter acre dream
And our friends all come to stay
Over the Clyde from Batemans Bay
And the band begins to play
As we live a life of ease
Every one of us has all we need
Sky of blue and trees of green
On our quarter acre dream
Allhomes can send you notifications for your Watchlist
Notifications for your Watchlist, notifications for your Watchlist
If listings get new prices or are passed in at auction
Notifications for your Watchlist, notifications for your Watchlist

Dynamic Type users rejoice: the Allhomes app now automatically adjusts the text size based on your preferred reading size. So go on and create an account, add properties you love to your Watchlist, track the inspections you want to attend in the planner, and leave your reading glasses at home. Unless, of course, you need those to read. In which case you should probably bring them.

Finding a place to live is a personal journey. Everyone has their own unique checklist of needs and wants when they're looking for their next home. In this version, we've added the ability for you to create a checklist to help you zero in on the property that "ticks all the boxes".
You see what I did there? Checklist. Ticks all the boxes. Yeah, you get it.

You look at reviews before you buy a pair of socks online. You won’t watch a movie unless it’s been recommended to you, either by a friend or by an algorithm that knows you a little too well.
Now you can get recommendations from RateMyAgent on Allhomes. Hear from real people about their experiences with a real estate agent so you can be confident you’re making the right choice.
Unlike those questionable socks you bought. You really should have known better.

How does the saying go, "The early bird gets the worm"?
That's not all they get... One particularly savvy bird created a property alert on Allhomes with all the right filters: location, price, number of bedrooms, and block size. Before the property was even listed, that bird got an Early Access alert which gave it the chance to inspect and even make an offer before other buyers.
Now, that bird and its little bird family are having a lovely worm roast in their dream house.
With Allhomes Early Access alerts you can be an early bird, too!

Spring has sprung, which presents Canberrans with two problems: fending off swooping magpies while riding their bikes, and confidently navigating the bustling spring property market. While we can't legally claim the Allhomes app will deter magpies, it won't not do that either.
What we can do is give you easy access to past sold prices and photos of properties to help you search, inspect, and make your decisions with confidence.
We can also give you early access to properties that have just become available, but are not yet listed on any platform by creating a property alert. As soon we know about a property that meets your criteria, we'll let you know!

Now that open inspections and in-person auctions are on the cards (with some limitations), you have lots of options for how to inspect a property you're interested in buying or renting.
Open inspections, private in-person inspections, and virtual online inspections are all supported in this version of the Allhomes app. We've also extended support for on site, online, and mixed (on site + online) auctions.
If in doubt, speak to the agent for a property to understand what your options are and what limitations might be in place.

We’ve also made it easier to register and request information for online auctions right from the listing.

Once upon a weekend open, while I pondered “is that skylight broken?”
Over many a quaint and cozy houses with a view of the lakeshore—
While I scribbled, desperately recapping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of someone gently typing, typing on their mobile phone.
“’Tis some hipster,” I muttered, “typing on their mobile phone—
Only this and nothing more.”
Presently my curiosity grew stronger; hesitating then no longer,
“Sir”, said I, “or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore;
But the fact is I was writing, and so gently you came tapping,
And I wondered if you’re recapping what you’ve seen heretofore,
Without paper and a pencil”—here they turned their phone towards me;—
“Yeah, it’s the Allhomes app; you can add notes to listings now. It’s pretty handy to help keep track of what you think about the houses you’ve inspected. Weirdo.”
Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken,
“Perhaps,” said I, “my Allhomes app needs updating!”
Now my eyes have all the gleaming of a first-home-buyer that is dreaming,
Typing notes, my face is beaming as I throw my pencil on the floor;
And my pencil, now retired, lying motionless on the floor
Shall be lifted—nevermore!

Suburb searches are so 2019. In addition to being the Year of the Rat, 2020 is all about knowing exactly what you want, right down to the street. Do you want to live on Williams Street in Watson? Type that into the search bar and see what's available (spoiler alert, it's charming!). How about Williamson Street in Holder? Sure, why not. We're not here to judge. Prefer searching by postcode? You've come to the right place!

In some cultures, the number 7 is considered to be a lucky number. Here at Allhomes we're pretty confident that version 7 of our iOS app could be our luckiest version yet. In this version, we've completely re-written our listing details screen to make the layout more consistent and the information easier to absorb. We've also begrudgingly admitted that not everyone lives on the east coast of Australia, so we've improved how the app handles time zones for open inspection times. Insofar as luck is quantifiable, which it isn't, our internal luckologists guestimate a two-fold increase in luck-based outcomes for people using version 7 versus any other version of Allhomes. Don't believe me? You're right not to. But you should download the upgrade anyway.

Dear Santa, I've been really good this year: I brush my teeth twice a day, I lie about flossing so I don't hurt my dentist's feelings, and I always help little old ladies cross the street. All I want for Christmas is to be reminded about the inspections I'm going to. I love looking at photos and re-reading descriptions, but sometimes I don't remember until it's too late! The planner on Allhomes is great, but reminders would make it that much better. Sincerely, People Looking For Houses.

RUTH
Where are you looking?
MEERA
Anywhere in Canberra, really. The block size and floor area are the deciding factors for me.
RUTH
(excitedly)
Just use the Allhomes app! Its new update lets you filter by block size and floor area. You can search across the whole Canberra region, too.
MEERA
Seriously? That's exactly what I need! Have they updated anything else?

Probably bug fixes and performance improvements. Developers love those things.

Crace: the final frontier.

to seek out newly listed homes and save them to your watchlist,
to boldly go where no property portal has gone before.

Friends, Canberrans, tablet users, lend me your ears;
I come to update you, not to bore you.
The search features phones have oft taunt you;
No more must you make do with old designs;
So let it be with version 5.20.
I speak not to disparage that which was,
But here I am to speak what I do know.
Our heart is in this update, bold and new:
What cause withholds you then, to not update,
To not enjoy the fruits of our labour,
To not find the property of your dreams?

2019 is here and we're ready to help shift your property search into high gear! Hey, that rhymed. Cool!
Version 5.19 is hot off the presses and includes a comprehensive update to our search service. "How comprehensive?" you ask. Let's just say that searching for properties in Allhomes is demonstrably more "awesome" in this version. And faster too.
We have a lot more up our sleeves for 2019. Watch this space.
Be excellent to each other.

We have so much space and so few updates to tell you about. Strike that, reverse it.
The Open Times screen has an all new look and feel to match the map and list search screen. Tap around, take it for a spin and let us know what you think.
Turns out there's a big difference between $500,000 and $600,000. Almost one hundred thousand dollars, in fact. It's because of this little-known mathematical fact that we've added smaller $50k price increments to the search filters.
Do you have your finger on the pulse of the Canberra real estate market? Is checking the weekend's auction results a Sunday morning ritual for you? Well, have we got the feature for you! You can now 3D touch your way straight to the auction results. Go on, give it a try!

What's new? Everything! Okay, not really "everything". But we've made some pretty big changes over the last few weeks and we hope you're going to like them. Keep your eyes on the map and list search screens; we'll be progressively releasing our shiny new designs for everyone to enjoy. Yes, that includes you Jill.
Oh, one more thing: Have you ever tried to tap the star to add a property to your Watchlist only accidentally go to the property details screen? Us too! Fear not, property seeker: that should happen less frequently now because the tappable area for the Watchlist star is bigger.

Say it with me, class: "Performance improvements and bug fixes".
We'd be pretty bad at our jobs if we made the app worse each release, so obviously we believe this version is better than 5.16.1. And not that we'll admit to there being bugs in the app, but there are fewer in this release.
So what's changed? While a lot of the improvements this release are under the hood, if you've upgraded to iOS 12, you can take advantage of the new Automatic Strong Password prompt when creating an account. Three cheers for security!
