Online Transaction Management
There’s an online transaction management system that I’ve been thinking about using, SettlementRoom. One of my agents used to be a transaction coordinator early on and mentioned it to me. It allows a buyer or seller to securely track the progress of their transaction (or the feedback from agents on their listing) online. One of the complaints that sellers often have about their agent is that they failed to provide feedback from property showings from the buyers and other agents. Once you’re in escrow, it allows you to have all the paperwork in one central place, and allows us to provide you with a CD record of the whole transaction when it is done.
I know my colleagues read these blogs pretty heavily, but on the off chance that a potential client does as well, I’d love to hear you chime in and let me know if you think that would add value to our real estate service. The cost is certainly not prohibitive unless it just turns out to be a needless bunch of bells and whistles.
