The excitement of the new year lingers as we look ahead to what could be. Possibilities we are excited about include these digital real estate trends for 2022 that are projected to continue to revolutionize the way we do real estate—and in turn provide better services for our clients!
Better visuals.
Perhaps this is one of the digital real estate trends for 2022 that is a no-brainer. Simply put, high-quality visuals are attractive.
However, good visuals are more than just pretty. They are useful too. For example, high-res photos, promotional videos and interactive floor plans save potential buyers, sellers and agents time in the long run.
Expanded social media use.
With real estate agents relying on expanded social media use, you can benefit from quick access to listings, virtual tours and new construction progress, straight from your social media timeline.
Additional mobile use.
In addition to easy communication, increased mobile use could mean tailored property searches being sent directly to your devices.
Plus, more mobile use will streamline things like file sharing, 3D tours, open houses and video conferencing.
Process automation.
This is one of digital real estate trends for 2022 that has room for growth! More and more solution-focused apps are being created specifically for real estate.
For instance, you could download an app that has a chatbot ready to answer more general real estate questions—not to mention all of the apps available to browse listings.
User-oriented transactions.
As people become more comfortable with technology, more transactions will shift to digital. For instance, there will be less paperwork and more e-signatures.
Moreover, blockchain technology will provide more security, which may lead to online payments and securing financing—all digitally.
Geolocation tools.
As the year progresses, we may see an increase in the use of geolocation tools. These tools can help you visualize county maps, flood zone maps, property data and more. Factored together, this information can help estimate property value.
Summary
While these digital real estate trends for 2022 are an important part of the future, there is no substitute for the knowledge and expertise of a local Realtor. So, if you have questions about buying, selling or both in our area, don’t hesitate to reach out to Ryan today!
