In real estate we deal with asset management every day, as we manage properties for ourselves and on behalf of other investors. It’s not surprising that today you can still find property owners using paper files as the go to way to manage properties. Thankfully many have moved to at least using excel which was introduced in 1985. In today’s world, asset management is getting more and more difficult to sustain as the growing amount of data, and the need to have information quickly, makes it difficult to keep track of all the information properly and be able to respond to arising needs on-demand. You cannot expect a thirty-year-old technology, which hasn’t changed, to be the workhorse for digital asset management across a multi-million-dollar portfolio. You need quick access, the ability to make updates, exchange data across multiple systems, computers, and mobile devices, all seamlessly and instantly.  It’s not about just seeing data in rows and columns. You have to make sure the information you are presented is recent and not cluttered so you quickly see the data you need and not multiple versions of files that may be out of date. You have to collaborate with team members across different business functions that requires being accurate and timely in accessing data.

With the arrival of Covid-19, the need to employ real estate technology has increased even more. Social distancing and shelter-at-home policies are in place in over 40 states, and companies need to go digital to survive. Without the digitalization of assets, it is impossible to manage a successful real estate business from home.

Even if Covid-19 is no longer a threat and employees can return to their offices, property owners need to digitize and streamline their processes if they want to survive in today’s rapidly changing world.
