Redfin Launches Debuts Updates Via iPhone

Seattle-based Redfin has cut down its update time on new listings and price drops to just 15-30 minutes, according to the firm, and is now sending out push notifications from its iPhone and iPad apps on pricing changes. The firm said the move comes as a result of bidding wars in the housing market, making it easier for its users to track pricing changes. Redfin said it is calling the push notifications "Instant Updates", after its similar email feature.
