RE/MAX Realty Review October, 2015

From the Chairman’s desk

The month of October has been action packed at the National Headquarters with preparations and participation at the Delhi show of Franchise & Retail Opportunities (FRO). The show saw the RE/MAX India team capturing leads by touching base with as many franchise prospects as possible. At RE/MAX, we believe in the fact that we are an out an out sales company and that is the reason why such events see everybody in the team pitching RE/MAX to the prospects. It was a result of all our enthusiasm and proactive-ness to extract the maximum from our participation. I am very proud of the dedication shown by my team and I am sure that you all will be soon seeing new people joining the RE/MAX network at various levels as a result of our participation. Another development in our network was the successful launch of the region of RE/MAX Southern Karnataka, wherein my team travelled to their region and helped in making the event successful. The month also saw the team of RE/MAX India, RE/MAX International and our Regional Owners meet again to conclude various decisions for their enhanced profitability. With the end of 2015 just a couple of months away, I am hoping that each one of you have spent some time not only reviewing your performance in achieving the targets that you set out at the beginning of the year but have realigned your strategy to ensure that you

eventually achieve your annual targets. It delights me to see our Affiliates in different regions get successful and appreciated from the customers for the kind of Real Estate services they provide them and I know for sure that we are well on our way to bring a positive change in this dynamic industry. This month’s newsletter has a special interaction with Ms. Meena Yadav, who has been a great testimony for other women entrepreneurs in our network. Reading her column made me have a stronger belief on the statement, “Everything your mind can Conceive, You can Achieve”. I would like to use this platform to congratulate Meena and wish her all the very best!

In the end, I would like to extend a very warm welcome to all the new members who joined the RE/MAX family in this month. With festivity around the corner, on behalf of everyone I would like to wish you and your loved one’s a very HAPPY DIWALI. May the glow of joy, prosperity and happiness illuminate your days in the year ahead!

Cheers! Sam Chopra

can provide unlimited information and a national and global connect but all this

cannot match to the human of negotiating and understanding what a customer actually wants.

Real estate brokerage has always been a high growth potential industry and with the changing trends in this sector, it has seen a flow of trends that have restructured the sector. Since the structure of the industry is changing, the time has come when the real estate professionals should not even ignore these changing trends. The sector is professionalizing and we need to aim at not only providing better services to the customer but also ensure that we work towards upgrading the status that a ‘real estate broker’ has in the society. Now one big question that most of us face is – Has

Internet replaced the role of the real estate brokers and

agents? With so much of information about properties

already available on the property portals and mobile

friendly applications claiming to enable a direct

interaction between the seller and the buyer; we may

get an impression that there is no need of a broker/

agent during the home buying or selling process. What

we need to understand is that real estate is a field

business. Getting of all the information online about the

property does not end the process; rather it is just an

initiator. Site visits, documentation, negotiations, right

pricing etc are the offline side of the business which

cannot be completed without the guidance of a real

estate expert. Technology is just a tool that ultimately

helps both the brokers and the end users but it is a fact

that it cannot replace the real estate

brokers/consultants. Successfully completing a

transaction involves much more than just uploading a

listing on a property portal.

If you look 10 years back at the way real estate was

conducted, a broker was the keeper of all the

information about a particular property. There was no

source other than a broker/agent to get information

about a property and they were minting a lot of money

just because of this information dissemination. But now

the game has changed.

Starting from the dimensions of the house to nearest utilities to the contact number of the owner is just a c lick away. There is so much more available on various social media platforms like Facebook groups, communities, WhatsApp groups, etc. To survive in the 21st century, a real estate consultant has to learn about the skills that a machine cannot do for a customer. There is a paradigm shift because of the technology and the way business is done and it has impacted the brokerage industry to a very large extent. All the smart real estate professionals have already taken the leap by updating themselves with the tools and techniques that will help them offer something more than what is already available online. With real estate moving to a more organized and regulated stage, I feel that this is the time that players like us will be the change leaders in the brokerage industry. To survive in today’s real estate market, a real estate professional needs to evolve constantly in terms of market knowledge, network, professionalism, marketing, etc to attract new customers. I strongly feel that we need to adopt some practices that will be a value addition to the end user. Some of them can be: Value the time of your customer: Every end user already comes with a good amount of research done about his buying decision. A real estate consultant should be well equipped with the knowledge about the latest inventory in that locality along with extra relevant information that can act as a catalyst in making the final decision. This value for their time will also build up the trust factor and make customers for life. Moreover, the present day customer looks for an access to maximum number of properties under the same roof as it makes the process more efficient, manageable and more over saves a lot of time that gets wasted in going from broker to broker to find the right property. A real estate professional should be able to provide the customer with this value addition to service all kinds of real estate needs.

Make maximum out of technology: Technology has tools that not only help in increasing your productivity but also help in doing much more than that. With set systems and procedures you can not only maintain but also market your inventory with just a few clicks. Though technology cannot replace the human touch that is required in the business, but it can surely help you in building the much required equilibrium between the online and the offline state of the business. Let your professionalism speak for you: With the changing demographics of the home buyers; it’s time for real estate consultants to be more professional in their approach. Your own personality, your office’s look, your way of dealing with them can do wonders. These are some very basic things which are acting as game changers in this industry. Every customer wants to deal with a professional and not an unprofessional part-timer opportunist. Up skill yourself: To be able to position yourself in today’s market, you need to constantly up skill yourself to provide a better service to the end user. In addition

to knowing your local market in and out; one should also know about the documentation and legalities involved to actually act as a consultant Instead to being a mediator, the need of the hour is to be able to walk through the entire process and present a blend of the market expertise and cutting edge technology. I would like to conclude by saying that the way we do this business has changed, but at the end of the day, real estate is still a people’s business. Portals can provide unlimited information, technology can provide a national and a global connect but all this cannot match to the human skills of negotiating and understanding what a customer actually wants. So though our industry is experiencing a phenomenal change since the start of the 21st century which has led to some major transformations, it will only be of value addition to the brokers and not their replacement.
