Agents Prove Their Value All Year Long With RPR’s 2024 New Releases
Staying ahead of the curve in real estate requires more than just hard work—it requires the right tools. Real estate agents who leverage RPR (Realtors Property Resource) found those and a whole lot more in 2024.
During the year, RPR introduced a slew of new features designed to streamline workflows, enhance client engagement and increase the success of your business. Below are some of the most powerful, game-changing tools RPR has to offer this year…
1 Next Gen Reports: A Major Upgrade for Client Presentations
One of the most significant upgrades RPR rolled out in 2024 is the Next Gen Reports feature. This new feature allows REALTORS® to create and customize visually stunning property reports for clients. The new reports editor interface lets agents add and subtract various elements to create the perfect report for any client situation or need. Whether you’re presenting market data, property details or neighborhood insights, these reports have been revamped to be more interactive, with improved graphics and data visualization.
But what really sets Next Gen Reports apart is the ability to tailor the content for different types of clients. Whether you’re dealing with first-time buyers, seasoned investors or sellers, the reports can be adjusted to highlight what matters most to them. This feature not only helps you present your expertise in a more compelling way, it also builds trust with clients who appreciate the clarity and professionalism in your deliverables and communication.
2 RPR Mobile™: Putting Agents on the Map
The RPR app has also undergone a significant transformation in 2024. This updated version now offers enhanced functionality, allowing agents to access all the RPR tools they need while on the go.
The app’s homepage is now the search map, which helps agents save swipes and research neighborhoods in an instant. Of course, they can also pull property reports and gather up-to-date market data directly from their smartphones or tablets from anywhere there’s a signal.
You can even create custom reports and share them instantly with clients, making it easier to provide value while you’re out in the field. The app’s sleek, intuitive interface makes navigating through RPR’s extensive database and powerful tools a breeze—no matter where you are.
3 Market Trends ScriptWriter: A More Powerful Tool for Seller and Buyer Insights
The Market Trends ScriptWriter has been a popular tool for agents who want to establish themselves as local market experts. It’s a go-to resource for creating market updates, video scripts and market explainer copy for buyers and sellers. In 2024, RPR took it up a notch by adding new categories to the ScriptWriter, further enhancing its value as a business-building asset.
By introducing a friendly/casual tone, expanding audience options and providing versatile script saving and delivery features, the tool empowers agents to communicate more effectively and authentically. The ability to address and speak to First-time Homebuyers, Move-up Buyers, Investors, Luxury Home Sellers, Downsizing Sellers and Distressed Sellers.
The new categories give REALTORS® the ability to create content and messaging that cover even more granular data points. These focused data-based metrics help agents present an even clearer picture of local market conditions, which makes it easier to guide clients in their decision-making process.
For example, when working with sellers, you can now provide detailed comparisons between their property and similar properties in the area, along with historical data to help determine the right listing price. For buyers, you can generate insights into pricing trends and investment potential that are hyper-relevant to their needs. The added categories give you the power to provide deeper insights that lead to better decisions—and hopefully more closed deals.
4 Commercial Version of ScriptWriter: Tailored for Investment Success
For agents who focus on commercial real estate, RPR has introduced a Commercial version of the ScriptWriter. This new tool is a game-changer for those looking to generate different types of content and communication that cover a wide array of commercial property metrics, including an area’s demographic statistics including income, population, housing and market growth trends.
It’s a real time-saving aid to help commercial real estate professionals tailor presentations to their audience and goals. Users can customize format, tone and data to create a:
