The pitch is always the same. The new platform will work well with your existing systems. It will connect to your CRM, your accounting software, and your project management tool. Everything will talk to everything. The data will flow. The inefficiencies will disappear. Then you buy it, and six months later, someone is still reconciling ...
There is a version of the AI-enabled commercial real estate broker that gets described in tech coverage as something close to science fiction: a lone operator commanding a fleet of intelligent agents, closing deals at 10x the speed of everyone else, essentially untouchable. The reality is more grounded than that. And considerably more achievable. Dan ...
The content creation conversation in real estate has been stuck in the same place for years. Everyone agrees that agents need a digital presence. Everyone agrees that podcasting, video, and consistent publishing builds trust and generates inbound business. And most agents agree that they have no idea how to actually build and sustain it, especially ...
Ron Kutas, CEO of OneWall Communities, on what AI actually changes in property management, and what it still can’t touch. The conversation around AI in property management tends to land in one of two places: either it’s a tool that will eventually eliminate most of the workforce, or it’s an overhyped technology that’s more noise ...

Commercial real estate owners accustomed to straightforward lease structures are encountering a fundamentally different partnership model as vertiport developers compete for site access. The emerging standard: asset-light revenue-sharing agreements where property owners contribute land access while developers arrange capital, equipment, and operations in exchange for shared revenue from multiple income streams. Lisa Wright, founder of ...
The narrative around South Florida real estate has long centered on Miami’s waterfront towers and celebrity-studded islands. But buyers seeking space, privacy, and value are increasingly looking to western Broward County, and developers are following them there. With 361 residential sales above $10 million recorded across South Florida in 2025, the second-highest annual total on ...
There is a structural problem hiding in plain sight across commercial real estate portfolios. Asset managers are held accountable for NOI performance, insurance renewals, utility spend, and occupancy trends – yet they are routinely making those decisions with incomplete, delayed, or vendor-controlled data. The operational data that actually drives those outcomes sits locked inside building ...
The contrast is jarring. A publicly traded company managing billions in real estate assets across multiple countries operates with no meaningful digital footprint, no systematic investor acquisition process, and no corporate marketing infrastructure – yet it is actively trying to raise capital in 2026 from American retail investors who expect to research companies online before ...
The acronym ESG was everywhere in commercial real estate just a few years ago. Sustainability reports, carbon targets, and green building certifications dominated boardroom agendas and investor conversations alike. Today, that language has largely disappeared from the same rooms. Not because the underlying pressures have gone away, but because the framing was never quite right ...
The first time a real estate professional hears “I found you through ChatGPT” from a potential client, the reaction is usually surprise mixed with confusion. They didn’t advertise on ChatGPT. They didn’t optimize for it. They may not have realized people were using AI platforms to find real estate agents at all. But it’s happening ...
When a self-managed HOA board shops for community association software, the first instinct is almost always the same: find the cheapest option that covers the basics. It makes sense. Board members are volunteers spending their neighbors’ dues. Cost sensitivity is baked into every decision. But industry experience suggests this approach creates a pattern that costs ...
The structural pressures reshaping real estate – brokerage-platform deals, AI-driven marketing tools, and shifting listing distribution models – are forcing independent boutique brokerages to make a choice: adapt proactively or react defensively. Courtney Poulos, founder and CEO of ACME Real Estate in Los Angeles, has made her decision. After 15 years building ACME as an ...

Commercial real estate has survived every major technology wave of the past three decades largely unchanged. Listings moved from the newspaper to the internet. CRMs replaced Rolodexes. Data aggregators promised to centralize everything. And yet, in 2026, the average broker still juggles five or six disconnected systems before making a single phone call. Dan Mosher, ...
