With the economy on the brink of a potential recession and headwinds heading our way, now is as good of a time as any to evaluate how you can save money in your budget for 2022 and start planning for 2023. Some of the biggest expenses real estate brokerages face are with their online technology and digital marketing. With more than seven years of experience helping real estate firms consolidate their technology budgets, I'd like to share my experience on where to start this process.
First and foremost: recognize where you still need to spend. The worst thing you can do when evaluating where to make cuts is jeopardize your future growth. I have always been fond of the analogy: stepping over a dollar to chase pennies. I have seen brokerages make one huge mistake over and over again when looking to save money quickly....

What is it about established, top-producing real estate agents that no matter what's happening in the real estate market – higher interest rates, lower inventory – they still thrive?
