Jane McNamara is a tech-savvy CEO of a non-profit agency in Michigan. In February of this year, she bought a second home in Florida from Bonita Springs, Fla.-based WCI Communities. When she signed the contract, the sales agent handed her an iPad preloaded with MyWCi, an application that organized all of her home-buyer documents and gave her instant contact with all of her WCI contacts. It put a host of information at her fingertips and allowed her to share photos and news about her new home with family and friends.

“You easily have access to documents to follow what’s going on,” McNamara says. “The packet of information about the house is about 2 inches thick. All that information was accessible via the iPad. I could go back and look at finishes and pull up floor plans. To have all that information and not carry around paper is just huge. It’s very cool.”
