Nearly 8 years ago RealNex was born with a vision to create a complete end-to-end solution for the commercial real estate industry – what we like to call the Commercial Real Estate Operating System. At inception, we acquired three leading CRE tech companies and quickly added two more. It was a lot of work to upgrade, consolidate and integrate those companies and their applications.

Over the past couple of years, many of us transitioned to a full-time work from home model, thanks to the global COVID-19 pandemic.

When your schedule gets hectic, it is easy to neglect your real estate CRM. However, it’s important to keep in mind that your real estate CRM is the very heart of your business.

By taking the time to get your real estate CRM in order, you can create an organized business that not only runs smoothly, but also drives profits.
