Due to the coronavirus pandemic and remote work conditions, any business looking to adjust to the new challenges has had to adopt new technologies. This led to the necessity of training employees and establishing remote work policies that had never been used before.
Of course, this type of transition is never easy for any company to endure. In real estate, for example, companies are expected to rapidly adopt new tools and maintain an online presence. But these same companies face a number of obstacles on their way to becoming fully remote-
Another problem with technology adoption is identifying software and systems that are compatible with everyone's devices and work style. Some employees may get used to their previous technology pack, and switching to a completely different one may be distracting or even affect productivity. Video tutorials are a common need for such cases.
Moreover, there are some tech solutions, like those that allow home buyers to conduct their own viewings without a realtor. These technologies save homebuyers from paying someone to just drive them around. For smaller firms and deals, this kind of app can be detrimental to business. Their employees should focus on creating a personal touch.
For larger deals, the result is often positive as it reduces the number of hours required for both parties to come to an agreement. Keeping up the balance of using tech with the customer for the right amount of time helps to close the deals.

Happy buyerReal estate companies deal with a variety of different documents and in high volumes. "Old-school" clients may require you to print out all the necessary papers and drive them across town to get a signature and close the deal.
Despite the fact that some of your clients find this to be much simpler, these old-fashioned ways of closing deals can end up costing your company too much money and time. Educating customers about new possibilities should be a common practice for real estate companies. You can simply call clients or send them letters and video tutorials that explain all the steps they have to follow to perform the necessary actions from their side successfully.
One of the biggest drawbacks is the loss of personal contact with a person when going online. But the introduction of technology does not necessarily mean abandoning human connections.
Building the ideal process means that not only are established interactions with a team comfortable, but also that new team members quickly understand the different scenarios of interaction. Any serious business achievement occurs due to several people interacting and working together. Live communication allows you to achieve mutual understanding much faster and understand employees' desires. When working from home, each participant in the process knows enough about their tasks, but they may not know anything about the context in which this task was created. And it is this lack of task context, the context of the company's life, that is the main problem of a distributed team.
