Why Are Top Agents Ditching Traditional Transaction Management Software?

Before we dive in, let’s answer three crucial questions.

Q1. What software/tools do you use as a real estate agent?

As a real estate agent, you might be using a variety of tools, including:(may represent in image)

CRM and Lead Generation Tools: Followup Boss, Lofty, and Moxiworks are popular choices for managing client interactions and generating leads.

General Project Management Tools: Tools like a simple whiteboard, checklists, spreadsheets, Asana, Monday or Trello to help manage agent & team tasks and projects.

Brokerage/Transaction Management Software: These tools, such as Skyslope, Brokermint, Dotloop, and Paperless Pipeline, are designed to manage contract files, checklists, and compliance requirements set by brokerages or states. 

Q2. Do these tools cater to all your needs as an Agent/Team?

The answer is often NO. Here’s why:

CRM and Lead Generation Tools: These tools manage interactions with potential and current customers but lack comprehensive deal management capabilities.

Brokerage/Transaction Management aka Compliance or Files Management: These tools are primarily designed to run a brokerage efficiently, focusing on contract files, compliance checklists, and state requirements. While real estate agents are users, these tools don’t fully cater to their unique needs of managing all the tasks to close the deals.

General Project Management Tools: While these tools assist in managing projects and tasks effectively, they are not specifically tailored to the real estate business.

  • Generic tools lack the details of the Real Estate industry
  • Agents must have skills & time to customize these tools
  • Clients & Partners can’t get any visibility (not very professional)

Q3. Is there a gap between these tools?

ABSOLUTELY. These tools were traditionally created for different purposes, and real estate agents have had to adapt to them over the years because there were no better alternatives. However, a shift is now happening as top agents are ditching these traditional tools in favor of more comprehensive solutions.

What is Deal Management?

Deal management involves overseeing and coordinating all aspects of a real estate deal with all parties involved, including buyers, sellers, agents, transaction coordinators (TCs), and team members. It is a comprehensive solution designed to optimize the entire lifecycle of a real estate deal, from initial contact to closing that meets the needs of modern real estate professionals.
