As we attend and celebrate the annual Proptech Forum this week - one of Direct Connect’s favourite events on the calendar! Here’s a few words from Proptech Association Australia president Kylie Davis talking about why the Direct Connect service is a must for anyone moving home.

Hey LinkedIn, Matt Weirich here! I’m the Co-founder and CEO of Realync. I’m taking over LinkedIn today to share how the first quarter of 2024 at Realync went for our team and clients. But first things first, a huge shout out to our incredible team and amazing clients! Thank you for building Realync with me and my co-founder, Ani Rangarajan! Let’s jump in. Q1 Highlights: Realync absolutely took off in 2024 with huge productization efforts –  we added: ✅ Virtual staging ✅ Single sign-on ✅ AI photo extraction ✅ 360 tour embeds ✅ Additional editing features ✅ Broader & deeper integrations Likewise, our clients started the year off strong using Realync in big ways and hitting new records for content creation and engagement: 🎥 11,388 videos created 🎥 1,661,080 video views (aka tours) 🎥 3,318 live virtual tours + live sessions hosted 🎥 51,806 Realync video views via Engrain SightMaps (and fast-growing) With the launch of photo extraction functionality, Realync is now the complete virtual solution for apartment marketing and leasing and throughout the entire resident lifecycle. Our clients' results have been astounding! Q1 Lowlight: Like any business, there’s always room for improvement. One of the more challenging aspects of building a proptech company is ensuring seamless integration with our clients' platforms and systems – maximizing functionality where they spend 90% of their time. Although significant improvements have been made since we launched Realync 10 years ago, I/we are still frustrated by the frequent obstacles encountered when attempting to execute straightforward and impactful initiatives for a shared client with a partner in our industry. But progress is happening every year. Let's continue to advance together, multifamily! That’s a wrap from me! Stay tuned for what’s ahead in 2024! Can’t wait for another quarter of growth together 💪

This year's Multifamily Social Media Summit was an unforgettable experience! A heartfelt thank you to everyone who visited the Tour24 booth; your engagement and energy were the highlights of our week. We're also proud to have partnered with Updater and SOCi, Inc. for a memorable wine tour, blending the art of winemaking with the spirit of innovation. Key Takeaways from SMS: - Keynote Speaker Jay Acunzo from Creator Kitchen set the tone for the week by demonstrating how to make a more significant impact with messaging through creativity and resonating with your audience. - Sessions on AI technology focused on leveraging AI to personalize experiences and resident retention. Personalized experiences increase residents' conversion and renewal rates while optimizing on-site team resources. - From Delany Duke and Jessica Mancuso's session, we got an insider's scoop into how student housing markets to their resident, who are the multifamily residents of tomorrow. - Virginia Love’s mantra "one size fits one" carried through her session with Lia Nichole Smith, addressing that Gen Z cares about brands that understand them, use their language, and respect their values. It's no longer about a one-size-fits-all approach in marketing to future residents. Personalization and self-service options are crucial to accomplishing this, and that can shift to a loyal following by the next generation of residents. Tour24 is walking away from this year's summit armed with insights on how we can leverage AI, continue to lean into a self-guided tour experience, and help our partners cater to this next generation of self-service-driven residents. Learn how Tour24 can parallel with your AI strategies today. Schedule demo: https://hubs.ly/Q02qW4th0 #Innovation #AItechnology #SelfGuidedTours #MultifamilySMS2024
