Businesses are constantly looking for new ways to gain an advantage over the competition, and Commercial Real Estate is no different. However, there is an odd trend in CRE related to technology adoption. As of 2020, only 28% of executives had adopted more than one technology solution. Many professionals may believe that the time to adapt has already passed, and it is too late to get ahead of the curve. But looking at commercial real estate, that idea is proven false. There is still a huge opportunity to integrate technology into your business to give you a massive leg up, but that time is running out. Below is an article explaining why CRE has fallen behind in tech adoption, and how the industry can begin to catch up. Some of…Embracing Change (Management)

The office has changed forever. No longer is it the center of company life. Now, the center of a company is its people.

Some benefits to this model include mental health, reduced carbon footprint, reduced rent for office space, and increased access to talent.

08:26:2022
June's SIOR Report magazine had a nice article on data mining for commercial real estate professionals. We found it insightful, not just because we are in the CRE data business, but because we are seeing the value this data provides our clients. Data is everywhere, but on its own it’s useless. Turning that data into actionable reports that provide insight is where the true value is. Thankfully, the CRE industry is headed in that direction. When SIORs need solutions, creating their tracking software is not always viable, and spending money on collecting additional data. However, the tide is turning, and more tools are quickly becoming available to all CRE professionals. If you are interested, please read more below.

Most businesses today are automated to some extent. Everything from banking to marketing, even running a restaurant uses tools that automate certain aspects.

That means the teams who automate have an immediate leg up on the competition. Starting now means you’re late. What tasks can be automated? Start with administrative tasks. Emails, meetings, and paperwork automate these tedious tasks so that you can spend more time building relationships and closing deals. Below is a short article on three ways you can start automating your business today. CRE OneSource can provide all three, giving you up to 25% of…The Cost Of Manual, Repetitive Tasks In CRE

The article below was eye-opening, explaining how mundane tasks, such as inputting passwords, can eat up months of your life. So what’s the solution? Technology. Automation is already here.
