With more than 20 years’ experience in the real estate industry, I have managed luxury brands and helped agents develop their personal brands. It is a delicate art. Each agent must create their individual style that incorporates their unique personality, communication approach and relationship skills. But the most successful agents all share a common trait: they are prepared with proficient market knowledge that inspires trust and confidence with their clients.
This is not a skill learned solely through wisdom and experience. It requires having the right tools, resources, and sources of information to keep up with evolving micro-market trends. You must think on your feet and anticipate any question or objection your clients may have.
Many agents spend years cultivating this level of knowledge and set of tools to establish themselves as a trusted advisor to their clients. But the vast majority of technologies available to agents have not kept pace with the demands of the market. Agents are cobbling together their own disintegrated toolkit of tech solutions to set up searches for clients, perform market analysis, create presentations, manage their networks, communicate with clients, generate new leads, and every other task imaginable.
The shortcomings of existing property tech and real estate tech are barriers preventing many agents from achieving their full potential. The bottom line is, if it takes you 45 minutes or longer to create your valuations and presentations, think of your time and money lost due to inefficiency. And if you are juggling many systems, your time is wasted every time you have to switch platforms. Not to mention the enormous cost and effort expended on online lead generation for little to no return.
All these pain points expose a major opportunity to improve the quality and efficiency of real estate tech.
