In a method and system for automated real estate information and offers, a prospective buyer of real property points a camera of a mobile device at the property. An application on the mobile device retrieves information pertinent to the property from a remote database, based on a geographic location of the property and automatic image recognition of one or more written characters displayed on or near the property. A form in the application takes terms for a prospective offer to purchase the property. The application transmits the offer to be displayed as an advertisement on one or more of the property owner' s devices. The application permits prospective buyer and prospective seller to identify, negotiate with, and select real estate service providers including agents, brokers, title companies, escrow companies, and inspectors, each of whom may upload and download documents and information through the application.
