\"How<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n

Agents\r\nare the backbone of any real estate brokerage, but attracting talent is easier\r\nsaid than done. To succeed, a firm must think past high commission splits and\r\nmake a comprehensive value proposition.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

How to Offer Value to Agent<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Brick-and-mortar\r\nshops can provide a dedicated workspace and mentorship opportunities, and any\r\nbrokerage, whether physical or virtual, can extend marketing support. The\r\nlatter is especially helpful as it frees agents to focus on lead generation\r\nwhile increasing the likelihood that their email and social media campaigns\r\nwill yield results.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

To\r\nattract quality people, real estate brokerages must also invest in the latest\r\nclient and transaction management tools. Agents place the most value on\r\ngroupware, a powerful CRM, and tech that simplifies the tedious back-and-forth\r\nthat has always dogged the purchase process. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Propy, the Future of Real Estate<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

There\r\nare plenty of cloud-based apps that facilitate collaboration, and there are\r\nseveral popular CRMs. However, Propy\u2019s all-in-one Transaction Platform<\/a> is a unique system that\r\nincorporates features of both while streamlining and securing the purchase and\r\nsale.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

By integrating DocuSign technology, Propy enables participants to share and sign their paperwork virtually. Once the documents are signed, they are then encrypted, time-stamped, and committed to the blockchain. Chief among those documents is the real estate deed, or written record of the transaction. Storing the deed on blockchain<\/a> ensures that it is safe from hack or adulteration yet available to all interested parties in perpetuity.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In addition, Propy centralizes escrow to eliminate email-based wire fraud, leverages smart contracts to computerize the work of expensive middlemen, and provides instant notifications and alerts. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

A True Recruiting Advantage<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

While\r\nmany real estate firms can offer a collegial atmosphere, marketing support, and\r\na solid CRM, only the most forward-looking lean on services like Propy to\r\naccelerate workflows and cut costs. For agents targeting millennials<\/a>, the latest tech is a must. For\r\nothers, DocuSign, blockchain deed registration, and smart contracts are simply\r\na better way to do business.
