Limited Market Knowledge Translating to poor Profits & Early Exits
Currently, there is no proper entry barrier in the brokerage space and therefore anyone enters this field without prerequisite knowledge and skill set. Consequently, they are forced to learn on the job, which many times result in suboptimal results. Unlike mature Real Estate markets like the US & Canada, India lacks a proper system of educating and training real estate consultants. There are roughly close to a million real estate brokers in India & a lot of them lack knowledge of basic things such as documentation, legalities, taxation, digital marketing, soft skills, and many other crucial aspects of the real estate industry.
Due to a lack of information and market knowledge, many take a lot of time to settle in the market and their earnings are delayed due to lack of deal closures. Many even exit the industry in the first few months due to negligible or no revenue.
How 360 Edge Academy will Bridge the Gap
“Through a focused training & orientation program, 360 Realty Academy will ensure that the Agents are thoroughly trained across all aspects of Real Estate and they have the requisite knowledge and information of the market before they start dealing with the clients. This shall be made possible using a mix of Classroom & Practical (On-the-Job) training which will include various case studies to keep the learning closer to reality.” Quoted Mr. SahilKapoor, National Head- 360 Edge.
Today’s real estate agent needs to be an all-rounder who can keep pace with the changing market and business dynamics. With technology playing a very critical role across all businesses, including real estate, the modern real estate consultant not only needs to adopt technology but has to be familiar with various tools that will enhance the business productivity and lead to better customer experience. Likewise, they also need a thorough knowledge of the market, where they are operating.
“Buyers and sellers also prefer to engage with brokers who are well versed with the market & have a lot of practical knowledge. After all, buying and selling properties is a very crucial decision for most of us.” Added Mr. Kapoor.
How 360 Realty Academy will Operate
As discussed, the academy will be conducting both online sessions and classroom training. It plans to empanel a lot of guest trainers who will be specialized experts in numerous Real Estate domains. Apart from knowledge & information, the academy plans to generate both employment and entrepreneurial opportunities for the large talent pool that it will be creating in the market. The academy will be functional across all Metros and Tier-1 cities to start with.
