CRE tech is also fueling platforms for renting, buying, and selling commercial and residential properties, big data aggregation and analysis, machine learning, and more.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve even seen the launch of CREtech, an initiative led by CEO Michael Beckerman to unite thought leaders in the space via live events, research, and expert content.<\/p>\n<h2>The impressive evolution of CRE tech<\/h2>\n<p>Let\u2019s take a step back for a minute. In order to fully understand CRE tech and where it\u2019s headed, we must first look at how it\u2019s evolved and progressed. According to Forbes, we can break down its timeline into <u>three eras<\/u>.<\/p>\n<h3>The First Era<\/h3>\n<p>First of all, CRE tech or proptech isn\u2019t necessarily new &#8211; the first wave started in the 1980s when the real estate industry expressed needs for better investment and portfolio management tools. Software companies like <u>Autodesk<\/u> and <u>CoStar<\/u> emerged and grew during the two decades following. But unlike enterprise-grade SaaS platforms we see today, the proptech solutions that emerged in this period didn\u2019t integrate with one another, and customization was expensive.<\/p>\n<h3>The Second Era<\/h3>\n<p>From 2001-2007, the next wave around the start of the internet boom brought forth data aggregators like <u>Zillow<\/u> and <u>Trulia<\/u>, which help people buy homes and commercial properties via online portals with vital property information. While mainly known for their focus on residential real estate, these companies quickly became the muse for similar solutions like <u>RealMassive<\/u>, focused specifically on the commercial space.<\/p>\n<h3>The Third Era: \u201cPropTech 2.0\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>The years from then through now is what Forbes calls the \u201cPropTech 2.0\u201d era.<\/p>\n<p>During this era, we\u2019ve been seeing the rise of interconnected hardware and software across homes and commercial buildings. We\u2019ve seen an emergence of easy customization and <u>integration between smart solutions<\/u>, sharing economy platforms like WeWork, and software that helps users generate and store property-related data. We\u2019ve even seen companies focused on designing 3D virtual tours of properties and construction sites.<\/p>\n<p>Smart building ecosystems alone, many of which rely on <u>cloud-based software solutions<\/u>, are transforming the way visitors check into buildings, facility managers control heating and lighting systems, employees manage meeting rooms and parking, and more. In fact, the smart building market is <u>projected to grow to $105.8 billion<\/u> by 2024.<\/p>\n<h2>5 types of CRE tech that have transformed the space<\/h2>\n<p>While there\u2019s still plenty of opportunities for CRE tech to expand in an industry soon worth over one hundred billion dollars, here are some of the standout examples of how technology in this era has already changed the face of real estate for the better.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Property management solutions<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"background-color: transparent;\">CRE tech has helped <\/span>property managers and property management companies<span style=\"background-color: transparent;\"> deal with tasks like prospects and tenants, collecting rent, dealing with maintenance issues, running invoices, and more. Property management software like <\/span>Building Engines<span style=\"background-color: transparent;\">, a mobile SaaS platform for commercial real estate, allows clients to track workflow as well as measure tenant satisfaction. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-color: transparent;\">Elsewhere, <\/span>PropertyWare<span style=\"background-color: transparent;\"> is a software solution that helps residential property managers handle anywhere from 20 to 5,000 units. It streamlines accounting, marketing, tenant screening, and more, and integrates with tools like QuickBooks.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>2. Visitor management systems<\/h3>\n<p>Cloud-based visitor management solutions (VMS) like Eptura not only help companies streamline and improve the overall visitor experience, but also tackle physical building security with features like host notifications, ID checks, health screenings, and mass emergency text messages.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 5784px; margin: 60px 0px;\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.hubspot.net\/hubfs\/437856\/_DSC3598.jpg\" alt=\"ID scan\" width=\"5784\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Eptura also integrates with access control systems to allow guests access to specific parts of a building during their visit. The tool also connects to third-party solutions for data and file storage, building parking management, meeting room booking, and more.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-color: transparent;\">With over 15 years of experience in technology, operations, and facility management, Eptura&#8217;s CRE team has <\/span>supported landlords and tenants<span style=\"background-color: transparent;\"> alike with multiple tenant app integrations, helping streamline and digitize asset portfolios.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>3. Co-working spaces<\/h3>\n<p>Co-working spaces, which allow entrepreneurs, start-ups, contractors, and others to work together in shared office spaces, have been a huge part of CRE tech\u2019s success.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-color: transparent;\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 6720px; margin: 60px 0px;\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.hubspot.net\/hubfs\/437856\/kamal-kant-kosariya-tWx33I9v6eU-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"coworking-space\" width=\"6720\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>4. Virtual tours and 3D printing<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"background-color: transparent;\">The ability to create quick, virtual tours using CRE tech software has been in demand across various real estate stakeholders in recent years. One solution, <\/span>Photofing<span style=\"background-color: transparent;\">, is an iPhone app that helps you create virtual tours at the actual site or using the web-based Tour Creator. Projects can be completed in just a few minutes. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-color: transparent;\">At the same time, in today\u2019s CRE tech era, it\u2019s now possible to 3D print buildings in under a day\u2019s time. This is already fueling revolutionary social projects in real estate; just a few years ago, a company called <\/span>Icon<span style=\"background-color: transparent;\"> made news for their mission to build custom 3D-printed homes in less than 24 hours, in part to help fight homelessness in the developing world.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>5. Construction management<\/h3>\n<p>So far, advances in proptech have been largely focused on sales and leasing, with fewer solutions on the market to help tackle construction management.<\/p>\n<p>PlanRadar is one software platform that helps with project management in the construction industry. They allow clients to make building plans, create and store documentation, and effectively communicate about projects.<\/p>\n<p>Other in-demand solutions<span style=\"background-color: transparent;\"> focused on construction management include those that create <\/span>building information modelling platforms<span style=\"background-color: transparent;\"> (BIM), which are 3D platforms that allow architects and other stakeholders to participate in the building design process in real-time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s no secret that we\u2019re experiencing rapid technological changes across all industries, making our lives easier and businesses more efficient.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":26,"featured_media":37926,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"content-type":"","inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":"","_wpscp_schedule_draft_date":"","_wpscp_schedule_republish_date":"","_wpscppro_advance_schedule":false,"_wpscppro_advance_schedule_date":"","_wpscppro_dont_share_socialmedia":null,"_wpscppro_custom_social_share_image":0,"_facebook_share_type":"default","_twitter_share_type":"default","_linkedin_share_type":"default","_pinterest_share_type":"default","_linkedin_share_type_page":"","_instagram_share_type":"default","_medium_share_type":"default","_threads_share_type":"","_google_business_share_type":"","_selected_social_profile":[],"_wpsp_enable_custom_social_template":false,"_wpsp_social_scheduling":{"enabled":false,"datetime":null,"platforms":[],"status":"template_only","dateOption":"today","timeOption":"now","customDays":"","customHours":"","customDate":"","customTime":"","schedulingType":"absolute"},"_wpsp_active_default_template":true},"categories":[7,1],"tags":[419],"class_list":["post-37677","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog","category-eptura","tag-blog"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.5 (Yoast SEO v26.5) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>The evolution of CRE tech &amp;
