Powerful AI Algorithms
It's clear that future property management tech will be powered by AI. One of the key responsibilities of property management companies is finding appropriate property for clients. For example, in residential real estate professionals need to find a property that aligns with the client's lifestyle and also has the potential for high returns.
According to Investopedia, machine learning algorithms excel at finding specific information in vast datasets - perfect for finding that one-in-a-million real estate listing that aligns perfectly with your client's wishes. Given that finding such a listing could take hours of painstaking research for a seasoned property management professional machine learning real estate software could offer incredible productivity gains in 2025.
Smart Home Technology
Smart home systems are another way real estate professionals can boost their efficiency. Utility bills are a significant expense, even when a property is vacant. If a house sits unheated all winter, the cold could cause serious structural problems.
The solution is to let the HVAC system heat the home just enough to prevent damage. Manually turning on the system is complicated and requires coordination. Smart home sensors can help simplify things by letting property managers automate HVAC systems in a central management portal.
Thanks to advanced AI-based real estate technology, these systems are set to get even smarter, property managers simply can't ignore smart technology. Expect to see more smart home systems in 2025.
Virtual Reality Tours
While there's no replacement for seeing a property in person, virtual reality tours have persisted even after the COVID-19 lockdowns that popularized them have ended. While touring the property in the real world is always preferable, it isn't always feasible.
For example, what if a manager has a client from overseas? Virtual reality tours allow property managers to reach clients who'd otherwise be unreachable. While virtual reality will likely remain a niche option, VR technology will improve significantly in 2025.
