Does your company have an established business model? A comprehensive business model is a crucial element for every startup business because it determines the value of your business. It also comes in handy if you're looking to apply for instant business loans. Therefore, your business model should outline how stakeholders – customers, suppliers, and everyone involved – can benefit from your business. Don't Mistake a Business Model from a Business Plan Many people think that a business model is just like a business plan. A business plan contains financial projections, business goals, management plans, and marketing strategies that are yet to be implemented. Business plans are often drafted to impress potential lenders and investors; leaving no room for experimentation. On the other hand, a business model is all about finding which strategy brings the most value to stakeholders. It requires experimentation and tinkering until you can find a model that works best for your business. With that in mind, you often have to design different variations of the same business model and test them out in the real world. The Key Elements of a Business Model There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to business models. But to give entrepreneurs…

The Coronavirus pandemic has left a sour taste in the mouth of a majority of the world's population. The effect of the pandemic is so much that many countries are seeking aid from others. Businesses have been adversely affected. Employers have had to cut their staff strength to cushion the effect of the pandemic on their businesses. At a point, the world seemed to have been brought to its knees as virtually everything had been brought to a standstill except the race to find a cure or vaccine for the rampaging virus. Tal Valariola: "Many people have filed for unemployment claims in many countries, which places more responsibilities on the overburdened shoulder of most governments. Investment opportunities have also been nosedived in several areas because of the absence of a ready market for services offered and products made by manufacturing and services-oriented companies. But do you know that even amid this pandemic, there are still those who are investing in one form of business or the other? Yes, some people have had cause to invest wisely in this harsh economic period. You can also be part of them, but first, you have to know the viable investment sectors to invest…

What does it mean when you buy a house? How much information should you know about what you are buying upfront? Or is it your responsibility to find out all the potential faults with the house, even if they have been carefully covered up?  In fact, the law states buyers should know what they are getting themselves into. Sellers may want to hide any major repairs. Equally, sometimes sellers won't know about all the faults as they too make honest mistakes. But what about if you're considering We Buy Houses As-Is? Here's everything you need to know about selling and buying these types of houses.  Inspection Times  and Contingency Clauses Most property purchase contracts contain contingency declarations, which allow the buyer to terminate the contract if the review finds a problem that was not immediately apparent. In traditional sales, the most common eventuality is the actual buyer's ability to obtain financing to sell when it exists. However, this is not the case with cash buyers. Cash buyers are often investors, and their contingencies are hidden rather than fixed.     In California, for example, the standard sales contract used by brokers allows the buyer to terminate the contract within seventeen days of signing the contract. The period…

Although we spend our entire lives buying and selling many things, very few are as valuable as real estate. Not many expenses are worth more than property.

Selling a house isn't always easy. On top of preparing your home for sale, holding open houses, and handling offers, and making counteroffers, there's the emotional aspect. This isn't just a house, after all. It's a home filled with memories. You want to make sure the next owner appreciates it and treats it as well as you did. Selling to a family member can help relieve some of those emotional worries. But it opens you up to financial and legal concerns that aren't there when you sell to a stranger. Let's look at how to overcome the challenges of selling your house to a family member. How Selling to a Family Member is Different Selling your home to someone you don't know is considered to be an "arm's length" transaction. This term simply means that the two parties came to an agreement on the price and terms independently of one another. Neither party exerted influence over the other. In an arm's length transaction, it's a given that each party negotiated for the most advantageous price possible. This is typically confirmed during the home appraisal process, before closing. But when you sell to a family member, it's no longer considered to…

The real estate market has been an eventful one all across the country since the pandemic began, and Sin City is no exception to this. In Las Vegas, the average home value has increased by 19.5 percent.  But, what exactly is happening with the Las Vegas housing market? Is it somewhere you are going to want to jump into now?  This is a short summary of the 2021 market.  More Homes Sold, Less Available  The local housing market in Las Vegas has done two things, the first of which is selling houses at a better rate than last year. In 2021, there have been 1,021 houses sold throughout the area, which is a 22.3 percent increase from last year. Houses are going quicker, thus making them harder to come by.  With this, the average time a house is on the market now is just 16 days, which is almost 30 days less than at this time last year.  So, with all of these houses being sold in record time, the question is how the supply is doing keeping up with this?  The answer is not good. There is an average of about 6.8 weeks of supply of houses available for…

When someone dies, they generally leave behind a variety of possessions located in their home and their place of work. However, cleaning out an office space is not nearly the same as clearing out a large home filled with a lifetime of possessions and memories. Sometimes when the deceased person leaves behind a substantial home with numerous possessions it's difficult to sell them individually. In those cases, it makes more sense to host a garage or estate sale. Chances are you've heard of garage sales, but what are estate sales and how do they work? Keep reading this helpful guide to learn more.  What Are Estate Sales? While driving through your neighborhood on a weekend, you're likely to see at least one sign advertising a garage or yard sale. People host a garage sale to get rid of old belongings they no longer need anymore or to make money in a pinch. Typically, interested buyers view a few select items displayed in the host's yard or garage and do not enter the house. An estate sale works similarly, but on a much bigger scale. It can function as a direct sale or as an estate auction where interested parties bid…

Technology is influencing almost every industry and real estate is no exception. Speaking of digital transformation, real estate tech has changed the way real estate agents communicate and market their services. It has also significantly impacted the way homebuyers look at the market for options.  While digital transformation hasn't been so rapid in real estate, 2019 saw the adoption of buzz-worthy PropTech that helped both sellers and property buyers.  From AI personal assistants, virtual tours of prospective homes, and provision of an on-demand inspection via prior booking systems. 2020 opens a new decade and the real estate industry is expected to embrace more real estate tech. Here are some top digital trends to keep an eye out for in 2020. Big Data Management and CRM  Big data refers to vast sets of data used to identify trends and patterns of human behavior. In the sphere of real estate tech, big data can be utilized to predict customer purchase intent and behavior. It also helps predict market conditions, a customer's past associations and buying perspectives that help a business understand a buyer's sentiments.  In the real estate sector, the analysis of big data often involves the use of Credit Relationship Management…

Is Your Building a Snowflake One of the universal truths of the property industry is that every building is unique. Like snowflakes, they take their own shape, occupy their own space, and react to the world in their own way. Also, like the delicate snowflake, they are constantly in a state of changing, decaying, adapting, or building upon themselves. Unlike snowflakes, buildings are much more than what meets the eye, so they require a lot of work by experts to fully understand their condition. Until now, this has been done through commissioning or retro-commissioning. The idea of building commissioning has been around for a while and is basically a process of hiring outside engineers to go through and test every part of a building. It comes from the AEC community as a way for new construction to be analyzed, which "ensures that the new building operates initially as the owner intended and that building staff are prepared to operate and maintain its systems and equipment." This idea was quickly adopted by the building management community because, as every building manager knows, after even a short amount of time building systems start to deteriorate and systems change as they are upgraded.…

If you're trying to take advantage of the great interest rates because of the coronavirus pandemic, you've likely seen a lot of great houses and condos on the market. That being said, before you can make an offer and move to your new dream home, you'll need to list and sell your existing property, too.   Having the extra equity from your current property can be a gamechanger when it comes to making an offer on a hot property during the pandemic. After all, even though interest rates are lower than ever, lenders are becoming extra strict about who they'll give a mortgage to and how much they're willing to lend. As the New York Times reports in an article about homebuyers seeking to cash in on super-low interest rates, buyers are having to "put down more money to keep the interest rate they wanted," all because of COVID. When you need to sell your house in a hurry, here are four tips to keep in mind.   Have your home ready to go before listing.   When sellers are in a hurry, they often press their agent to activate the listing before the house is ready to go. This can spell catastrophe,…

Increasing labor costs, a shortage of qualified employees, constant fluctuations in materials prices: these are only some of the problems faced by construction companies throughout the world. Western countries have already found a solution for reducing construction costs and increasing productivity. That solution? An investment in technologies and, as a result, implementation of solutions offered by startups in the ConTech sector (ConstructionTech: digitization of construction processes). Jones Lang LaSalle U.S. reports that American investment funds have invested USD 1.05 billion in the first half of 2018 in technological construction support solutions, which is 30% more than all of 2017. The situation in the Polish construction market is losing stability. In the second quarter of 2018, according to REAS, developers in the 6 largest markets in Poland sold 15.6 thousand. new apartments. This result is 15.2% worse than last quarter and the first such clear drop in sales in more than 5 years. This state of affairs is not due to a decline in housing demand but rather customer refrain and an expectation that prices will fall. But prices cannot go down if construction costs continue to rise. This results in financial problems for construction companies and even bankruptcies. According to…

By Maithili Shinde Data is the new oil. In the new and upcoming space of AR and VR technologies, ownership of the relevant content and data to the appropriate user has always been a grey area. In a report titled "The Battle Against Access to Data," Deloitte explains how real estate service providers have two options in order to legitimately claim their right to data, one being owning and managing the appropriate technological systems themselves, which is a heavy investment to bear. Deloitte suggests the most appropriate solution would be to intensify the collaboration between AR service providers and REALTORS®. They propose that an appropriate infrastructure must be in place to hand over data rights to the relevant space owners. At the moment, it's very hard for REALTORS® to own their data and host their 3D virtual tours on their own servers. GeoCV, a company democratizing reality capture through smartphones with depth cameras, is changing that. They have established an alternate structure in relation to who owns the data and content. By operating on an Open Architecture system, companies and real estate service providers can own their data, white-label and host tours on their own servers to fully customize it to…

One of the most curious things about the real estate industry is the fact that a lot of experts tend to underestimate the importance of marketing. After all, you have the supply and your audience is in demand of what you're selling. With that in mind… why bother to overspend on advertising? Well, first of all, you're not the only one in the game, and second, you're racing against time. You're not making any money while the property is vacant; and if you own it, you're actually losing money. Here are the top six marketing strategies that can help you out with all of this. 1.      Make a budget The problem that a bulk of real estate agents face when making a marketing strategy is the difficulty of making a marketing budget. Why? Well, because calculating the ROI of your marketing when you're working on a commission is not a simple thing. What do you make estimates off? How quickly you sold the property or how much money you've made of it? How big of a contribution does your marketing make here? You should factor occasional promotional deals in the budget. While bundling property purchases with virtual MasterCards as housewarming…

The manufactured home industry appears to be riding the wave of economic prosperity the U.S. is experiencing, and indicators point to sustained growth moving forward. Although the country continues to experience determined economic growth, historically low unemployment, wage growth, and substantial gains by America's middle class, a tight real estate market continues to keep site-built homeownership at arm's length for many. In recent years, the high-population Millennial demographic has emerged as the top buyers of starter homes. With many in this population bubble in their 30s, careers have blossomed, families have begun to grow, and they are fierce competitors for urban and suburban single-family homes. Millennial buying power coupled with low inventory has reportedly caused an uptick in site-built pricing. If you are curious about what this has to do with the manufactured home sector, quite a lot. New site-built construction has not kept pace with America's single-family home needs. In 2018, only approximately 840,000 new units were built. Although rising gradually since 2010, that figure stands in stark contrast to more than 1.5 million at the turn of the century, according to the Census. The country's population has grown from approximately 282 million in 2000 to 327 million in…

Supply@ME Capital PLC (LN: SYME) is a financial technology vendor platform that provides an alternate way for businesses to raise capital by minding their own stock. Manufacturing and commerce companies can strengthen their cash flow and capital positions via a true sale' of the warehouse holdings to special purpose vehicles integrated by SYME, which also creates a new asset class for investors. We think SYME's shares are undervalued in the current variety of £0.50-£0.60 and might expect more movement in the £2.00 to £2.50 bucket to Q12021. SYME isn't a conventional lender, despite fulfilling most of the middleman duties. As a pure service provider, SYME matches funding providers with firms in need of liquidity. The assortment of industries it serves is almost infinite. The exclusive version permits special purpose vehicles (stock companies), integrated by Supply@ME to buy the inventory, which is subsequently leased back to the company, never leaving the warehouse. As a pure-play digital creditor or a stock-loan lender, SYME is up against powerful incumbents, with very little ability to increase the kinds of sums needed to make a dent in the aerospace or chemicals marketplace. Where SYME disagrees is its position as a simple service provider, taking away…

In my view, the IT vendor's proper role is to showcase the powerful economic rationale for those in the real estate field to get out of the practice of buying/maintaining hardware that is obsolete practically before the paint is dry. And then to set an example, through grounded, customer-centric initiatives designed to simplify the cloud for these organizations – things like "on-boarding" services, aimed at eliminating the fear factor from the cloud migration process. The cloud may be easier and more affordable than advertised but it isn't free.  Still, compute horsepower is finally a virtual – or, perhaps more appropriately, a virtualization -- bargain. It's entirely possible for a real estate broker to spend $10K a month and tap enough compute power to drive a 1,000-user organization. That's less than the cost of hiring a single engineer (even if it may sound like overkill). The market is now awash in Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) tools and technologies, empowering real estate brokerages that may lack traditional IT resources to still benefit of remarkably robust products and platforms – and perhaps gain a little independence from vendors.  Savvy virtualization providers have already done the heavy lifting for some brokerages, with solutions that they can deploy largely on their own. For growing real estate businesses, of course, it's essential that applications and data be placed…

As a group, small and midsize real estate brokerages tend to be wired for DIY.  Self-reliance runs deep, which is why many still manage their own technology – servers, routers, other networked gear.  That said, the times, they are a-changin' and, increasingly, growing real estate brokerages are looking to move to the cloud – and bring their applications with them, via IaaS – Infrastructure as a Service.  In the IaaS model, servers and prefab packages effectively take the place of technology professionals.   While some agencies are likely to continue buying hardware, the pace of cloud migration continues to accelerate as more and more applications become cloud-ready and IaaS becomes the new normal.  Users – real people, not professional technologists – can now deploy their own apps and manage their own security.  What's behind the decision to remain with an in-house solution or embrace IaaS and cloud server hosting?  An organization reaches that fork in the road because it has pushed its servers to the end of their useful lives and now need to do something about it.  They want to embrace cloud-hosted computing as the preferred way to maintain cost-effective, 24x7 support. At its most basic level, IaaS enables real estate firms to move all or part of their compute environment to the cloud (that is, off premises), and to make the migration without modifying any…

On the heels of launching our Seaport neighborhood guide, we're excited to announce the launch of our tenant experience platform at Jamestown's historic Innovation and Design building in Boston. The IDB launch was a huge week for our team as the building clocks in at 1.4m sq ft, and fast forward five days of on-site amenities, in-app announcements, trivia and more, and over 1,000 tenants are now actively part of the HqO@IDB community.   Check out the quick video our team pulled together from the launch, featuring lots of happy tenants: https://youtu.be/RwSw8r4Oan0   The IDB is owned by Jamestown, a commercial landlord who is known for being one of the most advanced in how they think about and design their tenant experience. And having one of our initial CRE partners as obsessed as we are about tenant happiness guarantees that our mobile platform will be successful within any physical property.   Specifically, Jamestown has done an excellent job of understanding the small and big things that make going to work a little more fun, and now by leveraging HqO and giving tenants an app for the building, they're putting together all the pieces of a really great tenant experience.   Here are a few…
