Preview of ACT! by Sage for Real Estate 11

Recent economic reports have forecasted new home sales at their lowest rate since the early ‘90’s. The median price of a new home sale has dropped to the same level as 4 years ago. The housing slump in the U.S. is a central part of the overall economic malaise we’re all experiencing. One thing we can say for certain is that competition is fierce right now in the real estate industry. Less sales and lower prices means more pressure for brokers and agents alike.

That’s where ACT! comes in. Agents need a competitive advantage, and ACT! for Real Estate is the tool every agent needs in their arsenal. ACT! is designed for workgroups, so you can have visibility across an entire team when you need it. ACT! for Real Estate 11 can help agents simplify management of their client base and their market and spend time where they need to: with clients, listing their properties and finding new homes.

ACT! for Real Estate 11 is full of productivity enhancements to help agents manage their activities with buyers, sellers, and leads. The upcoming version will include:

• Contact Relationships to track associations between clients, collaborators on a particular deal, or referral details
• Outlook Integration to save you time when you’re in Outlook
• Powerful new search capabilities to find the information you need, right when you need it

ACT! for Real Estate 11 is scheduled for release in the first quarter of 2009.
