The Next Real Estate Disrupter Will Be...

There's an interesting post over on TechCrunch about who (or what) will be the next big disrupter for the real estate industry. With comparisons to travel agents, taxi services, and Airbnb the writer posits that something is big coming for real estate. He has a few possibilities about what it might look like, but is still operating in guessing mode for now. The comment thread is even more fascinating, with 118 people (at last count) weighing in. While it is true that those everything from travel agents to taxis have had the tsunami of change whip through their respective industries, those industries don't require as much know-how as homebuying. There are so many more laws, not to mention larger sums of money at stake, that whatever it is that's going to 'disrupt' real estate would have to come with a built-in educational component. Go here to read the full piece.

  1. We should be an educated agent to be successful in Property Investments Australia. As one of the most promising businesses, I choose this business because of my skills and techniques that I learned from my past experience. Hope that I can share the information that I learned to others.
