Luxury Surrey estate agents Barton Wyatt is frequently ahead of the technology game - Partner brothers James and Rupert Wyatt were the first Surrey NAEA members to have an Apple and Android app, the first local agent to outsource telephone answering in busy periods and the first to utilize video books as 21st century property particulars.
Now Barton Wyatt have taken their love of new technology to the next level by installing an 'intelligent' window in their High Street office display.
This incredible, 60-inch touch screen is embedded into the office window and acts exactly like an enormous tablet. Passers-by are able to search for new homes to buy and rent, registering their details 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The quintessentially English village of Virginia Water, which could be considered a sleepy hollow by some, has been highly entertained by the equipment.
Jaqueline Chambers from Wentworth Patisserie, which is next door to Barton Wyatt;
"Trust the Barton Wyatt boys to come up with such a brilliant device! Several of my customers have mentioned it, you could call it the talk of the town."
James Wyatt comments:
"I've always loved ingenious devices and this is definitely a brilliant new tool for selling homes and connecting with our clients. The touch screen is high resolution, the screen can even be seen in bright sunlight and it's incredibly easy to use. Prospective buyers who arrive home from work in London can browse our stock, tell us they want a valuation or just ask us to give them a call even when the office is closed.
"We've only had the intelligent screen in situ for four weeks and have already had a great deal of activity. It's proving incredibly popular."
So if you're passing by Barton Wyatt's window on Virginia Water High Street, why not give it a try? Barton Wyatt has a range of luxury rental homes in Sunningdale and Virginia Water.
