Real estate is an industry that has to retain the customers as the production time or the time of construction is often two to three years for a project. Thus CRM helps in collecting information relevant to the business or situation on different aspects of internal and external customer behaviours over time and attempts to store this information in an organized fashion and filters and feeds the right information for the business to derive more relevant communication. In this way CRM tries to create value for the customers to earn loyalty and trust and often makes the customer a valuable asset of the company. This is in tune with the oft quoted remark in marketing parlance that it takes about ten times the effort and money to earn a new customer than retain an old customer.

    Everything is depends on CRM if we have any doubts before buying the property from the builder we need to ask and clear our doubts regarding property with their CRMs. All the documents and approvals is shown by their CRM people so that we have to come up from overall doubts with them. It’s my suggestion to the home buyers please try to check all the legal approval from the CRM team and try to be close friendly with them because you will get few secret ideas about where to buy the property and which location is more demandable.
