Go and Connect with GoConnect

The words real estate software and innovation hardly go together, and frankly, it is not a very riveting topic for the general public - except when you are talking about two of my friends Jim Garman and Zach Schabot! JG and Zach were two founders of Go Realty in 2010 and they have teamed up again to develop a pretty cool checklist app for real estate agents called GoConnect.

We’re not talking about one of those websites that helps you search for homes, there are plenty of those.

GoConnect is an app for real estate agents designed to help them be more organized and productive. With each home sale, there are dozens of tasks that have to get done in order for your home to close on time and the transaction to go smoothly. Some agents rely on automated real estate CRM programs, some rely on excel spreadsheets and some rely on sticky notes and writing on their arm. Not exactly a fool-proof method.  

Aside from the fact these two guys are my friends (and I am huge gadget guru), I think their idea is going to be a huge benefit to agents because they’ll be able to better serve their clients. When I review the latest and greatest tech tools it always comes back to this question - will it help improve my relationship with my clients?
I think this one will....
