Macomb County Michigan: How Technology Is Enabling the Real Estate Process to Continue

CLINTON TOWNSHIP, Mich. - April 11, 2020 - PRLog -- Today's everyday reality is pretty different than it looked just a few weeks ago. We're learning how to do a lot of things in new ways, from how we work remotely to how we engage with our friends and neighbors. Almost everything right now is shifting to a virtual format. One of the big changes we're adapting to is the revisions to the common real estate transaction, which all vary by state and locality. Technology, however, is making it possible for many of us to continue on the quest for homeownership, an essential need for all.

Here's a look at some of the elements of the process that are changing

1. Virtual Consultations – Instead of heading into an office, you can meet with real estate and lending professionals through video chat.  Whether it's your first initial needs analysis as a buyer or your listing appointment as a seller, you can still get the process started remotely and create a plan together. Your trusted advisor is still on your side.

2. Home Searches & Virtual Showings – According to the National Association of Realtors (NAR), the Internet is one of the three most popular information sources buyers use when searching for homes. Your real estate agent can send you listing information and help you request a virtual showing when you're ready to start looking. This means you can virtually walk through the homes on your wish list while keeping your family safe. As a seller, you can still have virtual open houses and virtual tours too, so as not to miss those buyers looking to find a home right now.

3. Document Signing – Although this is another area that varies by state, today more portions of the transaction are being done digitally. In many areas, your agent or loan officer can set up an account where you can upload all of the required documents and sign electronically right from your computer.

Bottom Line

If you need to move today, technology can help make it happen; there are options available. Let's touch base today to discuss your situation and our local regulations, so you don't have to put your real estate plans on hold.
