What Can You Do to Prepare for 2024?

Stay Competitive

Technology is expected to play a significant role in the global real estate industry in 2024 and beyond. Reports note that it is imperative that agents stay up to date on technological advancements and trends in order to stay competitive in the market.1

Be Aware of Trends

Some of the real estate trends that are expected to shape the industry include:

  • Increased use of artificial intelligence (AI)
  • Greater adoption of virtual and augmented reality
  • Blockchain technology for secure transactions
  • More smart home technology
  • Greater focus on sustainability
  • Enhanced digital transaction management

Focus on Relationships

You can't possibly respond or react to every trend and advancement available—nor should you! Global real estate agents should keep their focus on providing excellent customer service and building strong relationships with clients. This is an essential part of growing and maintaining your business—and one that only you can do!

Take Care of Yourself

The winding down of another year can be exciting and exhausting. Be sure to take a pause and look after yourself and your health! A restful break will ensure you can head into 2024 with a positive outlook.
