Default Re: Transaction Management Platforms...

As an update on this thread compliance is increasing as a costly and timely burden on us REALTORS. 5 Years all files have to be maintained and managed so from a transaction management point of view these systems also have a way to help file efficiently by faxing to the system inbox and based on the header that you create it automatically files the paperwork into the correct sections. What's more it is off site so does serve as a great archive feature as well that is secure and away from possible data loss risk.

AZ state has moved to Sureclose a competing platform I know Relay was evaluated as well. Sureclose is receiving greater traction from what i am hearing, generally and certainly in AZ as the local and state associations are including the subscription for all brokers as part of annual dues.

Personally I think I will be making the switch, so take a look at what your state association is doing in the area of TM before you buy, not only because there could be discounts for you but a direction for state wide standardization may be set. Standardisation is important within state as these systems are not interoperable and compatible with each other.
