As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to improve, it’s becoming increasingly clear that the impact of AI on the real estate industry will be huge. Artificial intelligence is already being used in various industries, including real estate. Real estate companies are starting to realize the benefits of using AI to streamline processes, reduce costs, and ensure a higher level of service. This industry is ripe for disruption, and it’s only a matter of time before it’s fully disrupted.
Real estate professionals have been working hard to adapt to the digital age. Over the last few years, the adoption of mobile devices and the internet have significantly affected the real estate industry. Now, however, the introduction of artificial intelligence could completely revolutionize the way we buy and sell a property.
Hernando Fernandez is a Colombian-American real estate investor, entrepreneur, and Blockchain evangelist. In September 2021, on the occasion of National Hispanic Heritage Month and Community Empowerment month, Mr. Fernandez talked about the importance of empowering communities through Blockchain. He believes that AI can create generational wealth and real estate investment within the community.
On August 8, 2021, Mr. Fernandez also released an enlightening documentary on the history of money. Mr. Fernandez explained in depth why he considered money to be an illusion. Through the documentary, he highlighted why dollar bills are merely numbers on metal and paper, deriving their significance solely from people’s faith, acceptance as payment, and support. The difference between bitcoin and the dollar is only in the number of people who believe in their illusion.
Let’s look at some examples of how AI is being used to improve the real estate industry:
Property Management
The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) has changed the way property management is done. Today, AI-driven applications help property managers save time and money. For example, they can create virtual staging for properties to help tenants visualize the space before deciding. They also reduce the amount of paperwork involved in handling maintenance requests.
Minimize Time Spent On Office Work
Using AI in the real estate industry can reduce the time real estate agents spend in front of their computers, enabling them to spend more time with clients and doing other important tasks. AI software can analyze data and predict future property values, making determining a property’s value easier. AI solutions can also help real estate firms make the best use of space. By collecting data from sensors and Wi-Fi networks, AI solutions can help reduce the wastage of office space. This can save organizations tens of thousands of dollars.
Help Predict Future Sale or Rental Prices
AI is increasingly being used to analyze data, making it easier for the real estate industry to predict future prices. This technology can help real estate agents and investors provide more accurate information to clients and even regulate a building’s systems on a micro level. AI can also help title companies predict property values and benefit investors looking to purchase a property at a discount. It can also help people plan their retirement or move into a new home. By analyzing large amounts of data, AI can accurately forecast the price of a property and make recommendations. This information will be helpful to investors, developers, and lenders.
Automate Processes
While AI automation is not yet commonplace in the real estate industry, some companies use it to make their processes more efficient. These applications include market research and investment decisions. In addition to helping investors determine the value of a home, AI is also assisting agents in making better decisions and understanding deals better. These apps are designed to work in tandem with agents to improve efficiency and customer satisfaction.
Improve Data Security
There’s a lot of buzz about AI in the real estate industry, and it has a variety of applications. For example, AI-based predictive maintenance can help improve building operations, while facial recognition software can improve building security. Data security is one of the major concerns for building owners. While AI-based predictive analytics can lower energy, water, and maintenance costs, it also creates new vulnerabilities for hackers. As the number of connected devices increases in a building, physical security costs may decrease, but building owners will need to spend more money on cybersecurity.
Final Words
In the next few years, we will see a significant increase in the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the real estate industry. The implications of this change will be felt across the board and affect everyone in the industry. For buyers and sellers, this means more options and better services. For realtors and investors, it means increased competition and higher standards.
