The real estate field is highly competitive. To succeed as a real estate agent, you need every advantage you can get, and a hosted phone system can give you a communication advantage.

As a real estate agent, your life revolves around communication. You are in constant contact with existing clients, prospective clients, referral partners, mortgage brokers, contractors, movers, and other allied partners day in and day out. Exceptional communication is the difference between success and struggle.

A hosted phone system can provide you with a multitude of valuable features that can have a positive impact on your bottom-line.

Stay Connected Anytime, Anywhere

A hosted phone system can route calls to mobile phones, landlines, or even a computer. It’s a seamless and speedy process that allows your entire real estate team to stay connected even when working remotely.

With features like voicemail-to-email and voicemail-to-text, call forwarding, video conferencing, and more, staying connected is simpler than ever.

Even in a power outage, a hosted phone system will continue to function because it is cloud-based.

Auto-Attendant – A Virtual Receptionist

The auto-attendant feature is a powerful partner in your real estate business. It functions as a virtual receptionist, professionally answering the phone and directing calls to the appropriate person, department or extension.

Using the auto-attendant feature is fast and easy. You can change the greeting quickly and simply, making it a practical option to further your marketing and promotional efforts in real-time. For example, you can have the auto-attendant greeting highlight a limited-time promotion or an aspect of your business you’d like to focus on (such as home staging).

Easy & Affordable Local & Toll-Free Numbers

Many real estate agents have clientele from all over the world. Even if most of your clients are local there will always be some from other countries or provinces.

Getting multiple phone numbers can be costly and is not always the most effective strategy. A hosted phone system enables you to easily and affordably get multiple numbers, including toll-free numbers or a “local” number for another location.

The Perfect Phone System for Real Estate Agents

A hosted phone system has many advantages for real estate agents. It is a truly affordable solution, giving you enterprise features for one small business price. With no hardware to maintain, there’s no need to spend valuable time and resources trying to maintain your phone system.
