A lot of businesses have been hurt by the ongoing pandemic and a lot of us are re-evaluating our expenses in an effort to save money. Many of us are keeping a close eye on our expenditures and for very good reason, especially when the economy spiraled down so quickly and businesses had to shut their doors. When it comes to essentials, groceries, rent and mortgage payments, and bills are on the top of your list, but your real estate business should be up there too. Why? Because when things go back to normal, real estate activity will increase and you have to be prepared for all circumstances. Here’s where a real estate CRM can come into play.
