Transform with technology: Acquisitions and dispositions
Pandemic accelerates the shift towards digitized transactions
The buying and selling of real estate has long been consumed by reams of spreadsheets and paper. Documents upon documents to sign and store. But COVID-19 quickly changed things, accelerating the adoption of online transactions. Despite regulatory changes being needed for wider acceptance, tools are becoming available to streamline and accelerate how we buy and sell property.
Acquisitions & dispositions
Key considerations:
- Real estate capital markets are becoming more transparent. The digitization of transactions will make investment opportunities more accessible.
- The influence of technology in the acquisition process will accelerate. As investment markets become more digitally enabled, access to data will expand.
- Deal execution can be improved with technology. Embracing technology can increase efficiencies in the closing process and reduce transaction time.
