5 Real estate technological innovations for buying and selling homes

The evolution of technology is happening by leaps and bounds, and all sectors are seeing new innovations and tools emerge that facilitate tasks and streamline processes to be carried out, both for companies and for clients. The real estate sector, in which face-to-face visits have always been very important, has also benefited from these technological advances, such as real estate virtual reality and other tools that we will see below.

Technological advances and the evolution of the real estate sector

Many changes are beginning to arrive in the real estate sector. From virtual reality and online 3D visits to large real estate portals generated thanks to Big Data, real estate companies are seeing how their sector is transforming into a much more modern, updated and technology-dependent one.

Virtual reality in real estate

One of the biggest trends in the real estate sector is the use of virtual reality to conduct visits, something totally revolutionary and that has had an unprecedented impact on the development of this activity. Thanks to this technology, potential tenants can take a 3D virtual tour of the property, even interacting with the furniture (for example, checking the price of the TV, chairs, wardrobes, among others).For the real estate company and given the current circumstances caused by the global pandemic, virtual reality is a great advantage for them when it comes to getting new tenants in their properties. The contact of these is much more direct and close than with the traditional photographs that are provided in online portals, and allows making a decision with more security.

Control and recording of properties with drones

Another of the phenomena of the last era can be found in drones, very advanced devices that have taken activities such as photography or cinema to another level. Thanks to drones, the real estate sector can get professional recordings and incredible plans of the properties, both outdoors and indoors, in addition to acting as surveillance cameras, guaranteeing the security of the properties.

Automatic access and smart locks

Smart locks, such as those offered by Raixer, are a very useful innovation for the real estate sector, given the advantages in security and convenience provided by the service. By installing a lock of this type, you can connect your door and intercom to the internet, and open the automatic door opener and the front door with your mobile phone. With this application, you can perform a secure and effective access control, without your employees, customers or friends having to have the key on them to access the property.The installation of this type of lock is very quick and convenient, and is quite useful for real estate agencies. Its built-in software allows them to obtain real-time information on what happens inside the property (who accesses, how and when), managing everything directly from the offices.We recommend taking a look at our free courses that we do every week online so that you can learn how to install access control systems and their operation.In short, technological inventions have brought new and interesting tools to the real estate sector. Although they are all quite useful, it is recommended to incorporate smart locks into homes, as they guarantee their security and allow for a convenient and simple access control for the owner or real estate agency.‍
