Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Rand Realty Launches Open Platform

Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Rand Realty has launched a powerful combination of the latest in agent productivity technology. Through the Moxi Cloud, our open platform, agents now have access to our Moxi Engage™ CRM, which is fully integrated into an advanced automated marketing platform from teammate, Imprev, Inc.

“There’s a great technology race in real estate that has brokerages scrambling to add the latest innovations to gain a competitive edge and attract new agents,” says Matthew Rand, managing partner of Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Rand Realty, which operates 26 offices with 1000 agents. “But agents are suffering from tool fatigue: There are too many disconnected apps and tools offered to agents without a focused plan from the broker to tie them all together,” he continues.

Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Rand Realty, which is the premier real estate broker in New York City’s northern suburbs, closes more than $2.1 billion in real estate sales every year in Westchester, the Hudson Valley, and Northern New Jersey. The Rand organization is well-known for its regional technology leadership. It was the first company to put its listings online, the first to offer mapping and directions, and now the they’re the first to provide a fully mobile environment for home sellers and buyers.

“Combining two best-in-class technologies that are fully integrated helps make Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Rand Realty agents’ lives simpler and their businesses more successful,” Rand says. He adds, “The streamlined experience will also be a powerful offering in our recruiting strategy.”

Renwick Congdon, CEO of Imprev, a company known for its advanced automated marketing services, explains how the Moxi Works and Imprev integration creates a unique value proposition. “Providing compelling, timely, and relevant content to buyers and sellers helps agents build relationships and trust,” Congdon shares. “Delivering the right marketing to the client consistently and automatically can help an agent gain a client for life.”

“We’re making sure agents do the right thing at the right time, which we’ve seen dramatically increases their new, repeat, and referral business,” says York Baur, CEO at Seattle-based Moxi Works. “The technology that BHGRE Rand Realty is providing to its agents will provide a workflow that will be the envy of its competitors.”

Both listing and contact information for each Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Rand Realty agent will be synchronized with their CRM and marketing platforms. The streamlined workflow dramatically increases agent efficiency and improves data quality by eliminating the need to enter listing and contact information in multiple systems. The integration also enables the automatic creation of marketing content for a wide range of marketing activities – from promoting a new listing to keeping in contact with an agent’s leads and sphere of influence – all without requiring the agent to lift a finger.
