Are you interested in learning more about how real estate technology could change over the coming years? Read on to learn more about the latest real estate tech trends.
Blockchain and Real Estate
You probably know blockchain as the technology that powers cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, but it's more than that. Blockchain allows totally transparent and tamperproof payments. That's because a blockchain network contains a public record of every transaction.
By creating immutable records of real estate transactions, blockchain could:
- Reduce disputes over land ownership
- Speed up closing by streamlining property purchases
- Reduce the risk of fraud
According to IBM, it's even possible to create smart contracts that automatically execute a property deal when all parties meet certain conditions. In the future, blockchain-based real estate technology could eliminate the need to do real estate deals through an intermediary third party.
Smart Home Technology
Smart home technology is already transforming how homeowners engage with their property. The "Internet of Things" puts every system in your home at your fingertips. No matter where you are, you can use your smartphone to remotely manage:
- The thermostat
- Security systems
- Lighting
This technology doesn't just benefit residents, it's also great for landlords. Imagine being able to use a centralized owner's portal to monitor various property metrics. If something like an HVAC system isn't running at peak efficiency, you could receive an automated alert, allowing you to do timely and affordable preventive maintenance.
Smart home technology is already making lives easier for tenants and landlords alike, and the benefits are increasing by the day.
AI in Real Estate
Finally, you can expect to see some real changes surrounding AI in real estate. Just like the internet transformed every industry, AI is set to do the same by providing consumers with unprecedented information.
AI-assisted searches will make it easier than ever to find suitable real estate listings and automated valuation models will provide instant and accurate prices based on the latest market trends. You'll also see market analysis tools that will offer real-time insights into market demand and potential investment opportunities.
You can browse these deals with confidence, as AI systems will help evaluate risk through advanced fraud detection. It could even simulate renovations and identify potential pitfalls.
While we're only seeing the beginning of what AI can do, it's clear these advanced algorithms will transform the real estate industry.
