Homesnap is one of the most useful real state apps currently on the market. The user is able to simply take a picture of the house they are inquiring about and get a tremendous amount of information about the real estate.

The information provided includes anything from how many bedroom and bathrooms there are to how long it's been on the market. It even looks at the schools that one would be able to send their kids to if they were to live at this house and how good they are.

The app also shows similar houses in the neighborhood to help the [home hunters make the best decisions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/property-purchase). This may or may not disrupt the [real estate industry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/realie), but it's certainly a dream app for the end users.
