Here are 5 apps to boost your real estate team productivity:

Asana: 

Asana

From the website:

Responsibilities and next steps are clear, so you can shoot for the moon—and get there.

Never rely on an email thread to track your real estate team’s progress on projects again. Asana is used to organize, assign and schedule tasks to yourself and your team, so you can stay on track and meet deadlines. Worry less about reminding your team to complete their assignments and more about your clients.

Features include:

  • Create & Assign Tasks: 
    • Notifications are automatically sent when a task is assigned and completed, so you don’t have to remember to send an email.
  • Track Progress:
    • Stay up to date on tasks that have been completed within a project to make sure you and your team are on track to meet a due date.
  • User friendly UI:
    • Asana’s user friendly interface allows you to easily manage tasks and projects on your desktop or your mobile device.

 Slack:

SlackFrom the website:

Everything in Slack—messages, notifications, files, and all—is automatically indexed and archived so that you can have it at your fingertips whenever you want.

If real-time communication is your thing, then Slack’s got you covered. The app can sync all your devices, so that you and your team can stay in communication no matter where you are. Your messages and files are in the palm of your hand (literally) when managed in Slack.

  • Channels:
    • Create public and private channels depending on the topics you and your team are discussing to organize communication.
  • File Sharing:

  • Direct Messaging:
    • To communicate more privately, you can use Slack’s direct message feature instead of having to open your inbox.
