Created Exclusively for Licensed Residential Real Estate Agents

Executive Summary

Condos — Condo Hotels — Penthouses — Townhomes — Single-Family Communities

LAUNCHING IN JUNE, DASH WAS DEVELOPED IN CONCERT WITH THE MOST RECOGNIZED INDUSTRY LEADERS.

Problem & Solution

The Current Agent Experience is PAINFULLY INEFFICIENT

PROBLEM:

The process of project research, discovery, and connection is painstaking and cumbersome, resulting in wasted time and slower sales.

  • Discovering & keeping informed of developer projects is difficult
  • If available, content is shared via Dropbox, without tools to keep agents informed
  • Branded development marketing materials are hard to access, and unbranded materials may not exist at all
  • Current resources do not include pre-construction, new development or short-term rental (Airbnb/Vrbo) intelligence
  • Delays in finding and communicating with development sales teams
  • Property marketing materials/content hard to find, if available at all
  • Accuracy of project information is often questionable
  • Efficiency is lost to outdated interfaces that are not user-friendly
  • Lack of consistency between projects makes many property comparisons difficult
  • Analytics and data is not easily accessed, or provided in meaningful ways
  • If an agent/broker changes brokerages, they lose all their content.

SOLUTION:

DASH enhances the process of property discovery, sharing approved and current content with prospects, buyers, and associates on a single user-friendly platform that will produce more sales, faster.

  • A new standard to access developer inventory in one user-friendly environment
  • Project discovery offers real-time updates for users
  • Easy access to pre-formatted and unbranded marketing content, easily presented by individual agents
  • See detailed project information tailored to agents, e.g. preconstruction, new development,  short-term rental approvals, etc…
  • Communicate efficiently with on-site property sales team members.
  • Real-time notifications for property updates, with custom alert settings
  • Explore side-by-side comparisons of competing real estate developments
  • Analytics and data provided to help users determine trends and success.
  • A mobile-optimized platform that can be used anywhere, from any device.
  • Your DASH account goes with you wherever you go, even if you change brokerages.

Currently, no other Single-Platform Solution like DASH exists.

Dash users will have a huge competitive advantage by dramatically reducing research and discovery time, allowing them to realize greater sales at a much faster pace.

Revenue Subscription Models

AGENT REVENUE:

There Are 3 Million Licensed Real Estate Professionals in the U.S.

DASH assumes that of the 713,000 as many as 60% (427,800) of them either focus on commercial real estate, are part-time or have not sold anything in a one-year period, consequently, NOT in DASH’s “sweet spot.”

This reduces the audience to 285,200.
