FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Tiger Real Estate Agent?
Tiger Real Estate Agent is a Windows desktop CRM built for independent real estate agents and small brokerages. Tiger Real Estate Agent tracks buyers (with wish lists and budgets), sellers (with home details), and leads (with source attribution), manages deals with commission calculations, includes built-in IMAP/SMTP email with auto-threading, and integrates with 40-plus VoIP carriers. Tiger Real Estate Agent runs entirely offline.
How much does Tiger Real Estate Agent cost?
Tiger Real Estate Agent is 100 percent free from AppKatz Software. There is no purchase price, no monthly subscription, no per-listing fee, no per-deal fee, no annual renewal, and no credit card required. To activate the free permanent license, the user provides an email address and AppKatz Software emails back a license key. The free license covers unlimited buyers, sellers, and leads, the full deal pipeline tracker, built-in email, VoIP integration, MLS monitoring, and all 20-plus color themes. Agents who later need to invoice clients directly or take card payments can graduate to SoloCRM, which adds those capabilities.
How do I activate Tiger Real Estate Agent after installing?
Tiger Real Estate Agent is free but does require a one-time license activation. On first launch, the user enters an email address. AppKatz Software emails a license key within a minute. Paste the key into Tiger Real Estate Agent and the full product unlocks permanently on that Windows PC, with no further signups, no recurring renewals, and no credit card required. AppKatz Software uses the email only to send the key and occasional product update notes; the address is never sold or shared.
How is Tiger Real Estate Agent different from Follow Up Boss, kvCORE, or Wise Agent?
Follow Up Boss charges $69 to $1,000 per month. kvCORE costs $499 per month. Wise Agent charges $32 to $49 per month. Tiger Real Estate Agent is free. Tiger Real Estate Agent runs locally on Windows and includes built-in email, VoIP integration, and MLS monitoring without the recurring fees, per-user charges, or transaction percentages typical of cloud-based real estate CRMs.
Is Tiger Real Estate Agent safe to install on Windows?
Yes. Tiger Real Estate Agent ships as a code-signed Windows installer verified by DigiCert. The DigiCert signature confirms that AppKatz Software (operated by LaunchWizard, LLC) published the installer and that the file has not been altered. Code-signed installers do not trigger Windows SmartScreen warnings. Tiger Real Estate Agent stores all contact and deal data locally with encrypted login storage.
How does MLS monitoring work in Tiger Real Estate Agent?
Tiger Real Estate Agent monitors MLS listing feeds and automatically matches new listings against each buyer's saved wish list (price range, bedrooms, location, features). When a new listing matches a buyer's criteria, Tiger Real Estate Agent flags the match so the agent can reach out immediately. Match logic runs on the agent's Windows PC, keeping buyer wish lists private.
Does Tiger Real Estate Agent include email and phone?
Yes. Tiger Real Estate Agent ships with built-in IMAP/SMTP email with conversation auto-threading, eliminating the need to alt-tab to Outlook. Tiger Real Estate Agent also integrates with 40-plus VoIP carriers including Twilio, RingCentral, Vonage, and others, allowing the agent to place and receive calls directly from contact records and log call notes inline.
Will Tiger Real Estate Agent work on Windows 10 and Windows 11?
Yes. Tiger Real Estate Agent is built and tested for Windows 10 (version 1809 and later) and Windows 11. Tiger Real Estate Agent uses standard .NET runtimes that ship with both operating systems. The installer does not modify system files, does not require administrator privileges to run after installation, and does not change Windows Registry settings outside the application folder.
