Developed in partnership with Delta Media Group, the platforms move beyond a traditional website refresh by bringing consumer websites, agent marketing, training, and backend brokerage operations into a single connected ecosystem. The result is a more seamless experience for buyers, sellers, and agents alike—from first search to closing—while reducing tool sprawl across the organization.

The new platforms, built on DeltaNET® 7, Delta Media Group's enterprise real estate technology, were designed around the needs of today's buyers and sellers for faster search experiences, more intuitive property discovery, clearer listing information, and easier connections to local experts.

Behind the scenes, the unified system streamlines marketing, operations, and training so agents can focus on serving customers rather than managing disconnected tools, all in one digital environment designed to support ongoing AI integration.

The project was developed through close collaboration between Delta Media, The Keyes Company, Illustrated Properties, and contracted website design agency, Tiny Wins. "Keyes and Illustrated had a very clear vision for how these platforms needed to work seamlessly across both organizations, for today and tomorrow," said Michael Minard, CEO of Delta Media Group.

"Our role was to support that vision within our DeltaNET ecosystem to deliver a highly advanced, AI-ready platform flexible enough to reflect their DNA while operating at enterprise scale. This level of customization only happens through the closest cooperation, and our collective success was truly the result of a team effort from start to finish."

"This initiative was about building platforms that truly support how our agents, offices, and leadership teams work every day—so they can deliver a more seamless, responsive experience for buyers and sellers from first search to closing," said Christina Pappas, president of The Keyes Company and Illustrated Properties. "By teaming with Delta Media Group and Tiny Wins, we were able to create dynamic digital platforms that reflect who we are as an organization while giving us the scale, flexibility, and AI-enabled foundation we need to grow across our organizations."

Expanded Digital Experiences for Buyers and Sellers

The rollout includes refreshed public-facing brokerage and commercial websites, enhanced home search tools, and streamlined pathways for buyers and sellers to access neighborhood insights, market data, and direct communication with trusted local agents.

Single Platform Benefits Consumers

By consolidating multiple systems into one unified environment built on DeltaNET, Keyes and Illustrated can deliver more consistent information, faster updates, and smoother communication across offices and markets. For buyers and sellers, that means fewer delays, more accurate listings, and a more seamless experience from search through closing.

Fresh Listings and Increased Visibility

A new drag-and-drop website and email marketing builders were introduced to improve usability, speed, localization, and scalability across offices and agents. The upgraded infrastructure allows listings, property updates, and local market content to be published more quickly and consistently across digital channels. That speed helps ensure buyers see the most current information available, while sellers benefit from broader and more coordinated exposure.

Training and agent enablement through DeltaNET Academy

To support the rollout, Keyes Academy provides structured training to ensure agents are fully equipped to leverage the new tools, reinforcing the company's commitment to professionalism, responsiveness, and service excellence for customers across South Florida.

Looking Ahead

With the new digital platforms in place, the Keyes Family of Companies is delivering a more connected experience for buyers and sellers, one that blends nearly a century of local market expertise with modern, data-driven tools. From smarter property discovery to more responsive communication, the focus remains clear: making real estate transactions simpler, faster, and more transparent.

"Keyes and Illustrated Properties rollout brings websites, marketing, training, and office-level management into one advanced ecosystem," Minard said. "It also creates a foundation that can support future capabilities as it is ready to integrate the rapidly changing AI advancements that are coming."

Canton, Ohio – February 11, 2026 – Real estate brokerage leaders enter 2026 with steady confidence in business growth, housing demand, and the U.S. economy, according to the newest Delta Media Real Estate Leadership Surveyof more than 100 brokerage leaders representing firms collectively responsible for more than two thirds of all U.S. home sales last year.

Now in its fourth consecutive year, the Delta Media Real Estate Leadership Survey reveals how brokerage leaders view the economy and the housing market after several years of disruption. Conducted by Delta Media Group, a leading technology partner to more than 80 LeadingRE Affiliates and over 50 top ranked brokerages nationwide, the 2026 survey reflects views shaped by cost pressure, changing consumer behavior, and closer scrutiny of execution.

This year's results show optimism holding firm, even as leaders remain direct about margin pressure, inventory constraints, and operational discipline.

From defensive to deliberate

The 2026 findings mark a clear shift from the uncertainty that defined earlier surveys.

In 2023, a majority of brokerage leaders expected both the U.S. and global economies to deteriorate. Profitability expectations were low, and many firms focused on cost control. By 2024, confidence began to stabilize as local housing conditions improved. In 2025, optimism reached a three year high across profitability, transaction volume, and market share expectations.

"The 2026 outlook shows confidence has not faded. It has hardened," said Michael Minard, CEO and Owner of Delta Media. "Brokerage leaders now expect growth while staying focused on pricing pressure, margins, and execution," he explained.

Economic confidence stays close to home

Most brokerage leaders expect the U.S. economy to improve over the next 12 months (59%). Fewer predict deterioration (20%), one in five expect it to stay the same, and a small share expect a sharp decline (1%). Economic confidence remains strongest at the local level, followed by state then national economies.

"This pattern has remained consistent since we started this real estate leadership survey in 2023," Minard said. "What changed in 2026 is balance. Leaders report fewer extremes and more stable expectations across every economic level."

Housing demand remains a bright spot

Housing demand continues to support brokerage confidence.

Nearly two thirds of brokerage leaders (62%) expect housing demand to improve in 2026. A smaller share expects demand to remain steady (33%), and few anticipate a decline (5%). This marks a clear change from 2023, when expectations were evenly split between improvement, stability, and decline.

Affordability, inventory levels, and mortgage rates continue to limit activity in many markets. Even so, demand expectations remain one of the most consistent positives in the survey.

Profitability and transactions point upward

Confidence in core business performance remains strong.

More than eight in ten brokerage leaders expect profitability to increase in 2026 (85%). A similar share expects transaction sides to rise (82%).  Two thirds believe their firm will gain market share over the next year (66%).

"These results stand in sharp contrast to 2023, when more than half of leaders expected profitability to decline," Minard said. "The shift reflects years of adjustment in staffing, expenses, and technology decisions."

The pressure beneath the optimism

Optimism does not remove pressure.

When asked about their top business challenges in 2026, leaders most often cite agent recruiting top producers (63%), agent productivity (54%), recruiting younger agents (48%), reduced profit margins and training agents on new tools/processes (both 41%). Housing inventory (40%) and AI adoption and impact (38%) remain persistent concerns.

Technology adoption (38%) also continues to test brokerages. Leaders point to agent usage, training, and return on investment as ongoing hurdles, especially as AI tools move from experimentation to daily operations.

The message remains consistent. Growth exists, but execution decides who captures it.

A shift in how leaders view AI

"AI is no longer a future concept," said Minard. "We know from the release of our AI Survey that 97% of brokerage leaders say their agents are using AI. AI use in real estate is ubiquitous. The focus has shifted to structure and strategy."

The 2026 data shows that brokerage leaders focus on practical outcomes. They want tools that fit existing workflows, respect agent preferences, and produce measurable business results. Adoption and accountability now matter more than novelty.

This shift mirrors broader operational changes across brokerages, where technology decisions tie directly to productivity, margins, and agent retention.

Clear expectations for the year ahead

The 2026 Delta Media Real Estate Leadership Survey shows an industry that has regained its footing without losing caution. Brokerage leaders expect growth yet remain direct about the forces that could slow it.

"After four years of tracking brokerage sentiment, what stands out this year is clarity," added Minard. "Leaders are no longer guessing about the market. They know where growth can come from, and they know what threatens it."

Canton, Ohio – January 29, 2026 – Artificial intelligence has officially crossed the tipping point in real estate. According to the 2026 Delta Media Real Estate AI & Leadership Survey, nearly all brokerage leaders (97%) report their agents are now using AI, marking a decisive shift from experimentation to everyday business use. As adoption reaches near-universal levels, the industry's attention is turning to how AI is implemented safely, responsibly, and at scale across brokerage operations.

Now in its third consecutive year, the Delta Media AI Survey remains the real estate industry's definitive benchmark for how real estate brokerages and their agents are adopting and applying artificial intelligence. Conducted by Delta Media Group, a leading technology partner to more than 80 LeadingRE Affiliates and over 50 top-ranked brokerages nationwide, the 2026 survey reflects responses from more than 100 brokerage leaders representing firms responsible for over two-thirds of all U.S. real estate transactions last year.

"Over the past three years, we've watched AI move from curiosity to capability to becoming embedded in the average agent's daily workflow," said Michael Minard, CEO and owner of Delta Media Group. "AI use among brokerages has become virtually ubiquitous. In 2026, the question is how brokerages ensure AI is being used accurately, responsibly, and in ways that deliver real value to both agents and consumers.

Key findings from the 2026 Delta AI Survey

Adoption trends: AI is now a baseline business tool

• Real estate agent adoption jumped from 80 percent in 2024 to 97 percent in 2026.
• Brokerage non-adoption fell from 22 percent to just 4 percent in two years, an 82 percent decline.
• Leaders now rate AI's current importance at 7 out of 10, with future importance rising to 8.

AI in action: where it's making the biggest impact

• 82 percent of agents use AI to write listing descriptions, up from 58 percent in 2024.
• 74 percent use AI for content creation such as blogs, social posts, and email campaigns.
• 49 percent use AI to manage and plan their social media marketing.

Scaling responsibly: concerns haven't disappeared

• 49 percent of brokerage leaders remain highly concerned about AI guardrails.
• Top barriers to AI adoption include privacy concerns, integration challenges, and compliance requirements.
• Smaller brokerages report the highest levels of concern about AI guardrails, citing limited access to compliance tools, integration support, and staff training resources. In contrast, leaders of larger firms say their scale provides strong safeguards and infrastructure to manage AI risks.

Deeper insights: Big shifts

• Leaders now rate AI's current importance at 7 out of 10, rising to 8 out of 10 when looking ahead. In 2024, leaders rated AI's importance at just 5 out of 10.
• 26% of brokerage leaders said content creation, including blogs, emails, and social posts, is the single most important use of AI in their firm, ahead of listing descriptions (15%) and marketing tools (7%).
• Concern about AI risks increased in 2026. After easing in 2025, 49% of leaders now rate their concern about AI guardrails between 7 and 10, citing data privacy, integration, and regulatory compliance as top challenges.
• Only 2% of brokerage leaders say they do not plan to adopt AI in 2026, down from 7% in the previous year. AI has become a strategic necessity across the industry.
• Survey responses also point to continued consolidation around all-in-one platforms that include AI, automation, and CRM capabilities, rather than standalone tools.

AI is no longer a tech experiment. It's infrastructure.

Between 2024 and 2026, real estate brokerages moved from dabbling in AI to embedding it into core operations. From listing descriptions and marketing to agent training, CRM workflows, and business intelligence, AI is becoming the foundation of how brokerages operate and why Delta Media, Minard notes, became an "AI First" company last year.

"AI is now embedded in nearly every area of the brokerage business," Minard added. "That brings new opportunities for brokerages to boost performance and efficiency. But AI also creates significant new responsibilities for broker-owners. Scaling AI that delivers measurable, daily value means working with a trusted technology partner who is not only AI First, but one that is part of the real estate industry, is well-seasoned at delivering to brokerages successful enterprise-grade solutions and knows how to best protect both the firm and its agents."

What's next for AI in real estate

Real estate leaders anticipate that 2026 will mark a new phase in the AI journey: one defined not by experimentation, but by integration. Brokerages are moving beyond surface-level applications and investing in platforms that embed AI into the operational backbone of the business. Sixty-three percent of leaders plan to expand AI use for social and digital marketing automation. More than half are prioritizing CRM and workflow automation, and 50 percent say they will deploy agentic AI tools to execute complex, multi-step tasks.

"The annual Delta survey highlights the fact that AI is reshaping real estate faster than any technology we've ever seen," added Minard. "How brokerages operate, how agents deliver value, and how the entire real estate experience is managed will be changed forever by AI."

Survey methodology

Over 100 real estate broker-owners and top-level management from brokerages responded in December 2025. Demographics: 62% were male, 34% female, and 4% chose not to answer. Forty-eight percent were at least 60 years old, 31% were 50-59, 15% were 40-49, and 6% were 39 or younger. For brokerage size, 2% have more than 1,000 agents, 3% have 501 to 1,000 agents, 29% have 101 to 500 agents, 35% have 21 to 100 agents, and 31% have 20 or fewer agents. Brokerages with transactions totaling more than $5 billion made up 12% of respondents, $1–$5 billion was 17%, $501 million to $1 billion was 9%, $101 million to $500 million was 24%, $51–$100 million was 12%, and less than $50 million was 36%.

Canton, Ohio – February 6, 2024 – What are the top 5 business challenges for real estate broker leaders in 2024? That's the question answered by the new 2024 Delta Real Estate Leadership Survey of more than 130 brokerage leaders representing firms that collectively were responsible for 2 out of 3 residential real estate transactions last year.

For the second year in a row, "Recruiting new agents" was the No. 1 business challenge (65% versus 63% in 2023), followed by "Reduced profit margins" (60% versus 48% in 2023)."Agent adoption of brokerage provided technology" leaped into the No. 3 spot at 55% (it tied for the No. 5 spot last year at 39%).

The "Impact of commission lawsuits" jumps into the No. 4 spot cited by a majority of brokerage leaders (52%) as being a top challenge for this year. At the No. 5 spot was "Cutting the right expenses" at 37%.

"It's no surprise that recruiting remains the largest challenge for real estate leaders and that the majority see the industry lawsuits as another top challenge," said Michael Minard, CEO and owner of Delta Media Group, "What is a bit of a surprise is seeing the importance of agent tech adoption catapult into the top three business challenge. This indicates that real estate technology will be under a microscope in 2024, and it had better benefit the brokerage's bottom line."

The Delta survey also asked leaders to share their take on the value of all-in-one marketing technology platforms in the brokerage's organization. Industry leaders gave all-in-one platforms an average rating of 7 out of 10.

However, brokerage leaders 30 years old and younger, gave the centralized tech platforms a perfect rating of 10. In contrast, the oldest age group of leaders, 60 and older, gave the platforms the lowest rating of any age group: 6.6. Female leaders ranked the value of all-in-one platforms significantly higher (7.03) than their male counterparts (6.73).

The survey also found:

• Rounding out the Top 10 business challenges for this year included "Recruiting top producers" (47%), "Retaining top producers" (44%), "Recruiting younger agents," "Providing higher quality leads for agents," and "Making sure you have the right technology" (all tied at No. 8 with 35%).
• Only about 1 in 10 leaders consider managing teams or managing the impact of AI to be a top business challenge this year.
• Less than 1 in 7 leaders said that increasing the speed of agent lead follow-up or recruiting a more diverse workforce was a top challenge for 2024.

The Delta survey also asked brokerage leaders to identify the single best thing their brokerage did in 2024. The most common responses focused on three things: activities related to cutting costs and streamlining operations (also the most common best thing accomplished in 2023), technology adoption, and digital marketing, as many brokerages said they focused on integrating new tech and expanded their digital marketing activities; and agent support and growth, implementing new programs and services, from training and coaching to providing more brokerage marketing support.

Finally, when real estate leaders were asked to provide additional insight into their top business challenge for 2024, the study uncovered three common themes:

• Keeping agents engaged and productive
• Attracting and retaining new talent
• External market pressures, from high interest rates and inventory shortages to legal and economic uncertainties

Canton, Ohio – January 30, 2024 – Real estate brokerage leaders are once again bullish on housing and the economy in 2024, according to the newest Delta Real Estate Leadership Survey of more than 130 brokerage leaders, which represents firms collectively responsible for more than 65% of all home sales last year.

Two in three (66%) leaders expect housing demand to improve this year, compared to last year when only one-third of leaders surveyed expected improvement in 2023.

Moreover, over half (53%) of leaders said the US economy will improve in the next 12 months. This represents an about-face for real estate leaders as last year, as 51% expected the US economy to deteriorate in the next 12 months (2023). 

"The Delta survey once again reveals real estate leaders' confidence in the economy increases the closer it is to home," explained Michael Minard, CEO and owner of Delta Media Group. "They are much more confident about their local economy than their state, US or global economy," he added.

When real estate brokerage leaders were asked to rank their confidence in their local, state, US and global economies today versus a year ago, local economies reaped the highest overall confidence (42%), followed by state (33%) and US (29%).

"Leaders have little confidence in the global economy," Minard added. "Only 3% were more confident of the global economy today versus a year ago, with 57% less confident. Forty percent said their confidence remained unchanged," he added.

Still, one in five real estate leaders believe the US economy (20%) will deteriorate or deteriorate significantly in 2024. 

Business size impact

Results also showed that brokerages with higher transaction volumes and more agents tend to exhibit more confidence in the economy, especially at local and state levels. The confidence tends to decrease for all brokerages as the scope of the economy broadens, with the global economy showing the lowest confidence levels across all transaction volumes. These patterns suggest larger brokerages' economic outlook potentially reflects on their market stability and financial health.

Demographic impact

The Delta study found a notable difference in confidence levels between male and female respondents and by age. Males are significantly more likely to be "More confident" about their local and state economies than females. Younger age groups also tend to exhibit more confidence in all economies, especially at the local level.

Confidence levels in the US economy are generally lower than local and state economies for both genders and ages, with males still showing slightly higher confidence. For the global economy, confidence levels are lowest among genders and all age groups. Females showed no confidence in the global economy, and males only had a marginal confidence level.

The data revealed overall that real estate leaders with more confidence are typically younger and male, leading larger firms with higher transaction volumes. They exhibit more optimism, especially in local and state economies.

Leaders with less confidence tend to be older, often female, leading smaller firms with lower transaction volumes and are generally more cautious, particularly about the broader US and global economies.

About the survey

The independent research was conducted in December 2023 by Delta Media Group, one of America's largest technology solutions providers for real estate brokerages.

More than one in four (28%) of the leaders responding manage brokerages with more than $1.5 billion to over $10 billion in projected 2023 transactions; nearly one-third (31%) manage brokerages with over $500 million to $1.5 billion; 31% manage brokerages with over $100 million to $500 million, and 10% manage brokerages with less than $100 million in total transactions.

Participants included leaders from all sizes of brokerages: 14% were managing brokerages with more than 1,000 agents; 12% with over 500 to 1,000 agents; 38% with more than 100 to 500 agents; 16% with over 50 to 100 agents; and 6% with 50 agents or fewer.

Forty-four percent of the respondents are 60 or older; 32% are 50 to 59 years old; 14% are 40 to 49 years old; 8% are 31 to 39, and 1% are 18 to 30 years old. Notably, 74% of those surveyed are male, and 26% are female – up from 21% female last year.

The comprehensive survey by Delta Media Group, a leading technology partner for more than 80 LeadingRE Affiliates and over 50 top-ranked brokerages nationwide, provides an in-depth profile of AI's current landscape and future trajectory based on responses from more than 130 top brokerage leaders representing firms responsible for 65% of all real estate transactions nationally last year. It also uncovers worries about risks related to unchecked AI usage.

"AI has become one of real estate's fastest-adopted technology tools, embraced by brokerages and agents at a breakneck speed," said Michael Minard, owner and CEO of Delta Media. "But our survey shows legitimate concerns about reducing AI risks by having proper controls in place. As AI reliance grows, brokerages need assurance that their tech partners providing these tools have sufficient safeguards to protect them from the potential downsides. Managing risks remains an imperative even as competitive pressures make adoption table stakes," he added.

The Delta study discovered how real estate agents employ AI in their day-to-day business, primarily leveraging this technology to craft property descriptions (82%), followed by generating blog posts, emails, and letters (67%), social media content (60%), website content (44%), and writing personal bios (43%).

More significantly, the reliance on AI is not just present but growing, with executives rating its current importance to the industry at 5 out of 10, which surges by 40% when asked about AI's importance in the "near future." The enthusiasm for AI is growing, with leaders noting they plan to leverage AI in the future; digital marketing (73%) and social media (72%) are the leading anticipated uses.

While some experts predict 2024 will be the year of AI personal assistants, only 23% of brokerage leaders see AI used for front-office or admin support this year. Remarkably, one in ten (11%) have "No plans to use AI" this year.

Despite the early adoption and widespread use of AI in the real estate industry, as Minard points out, the Delta survey found that a persistent fear of AI remains. More than half of the top brokerage execs said they are "worried or very worried" that AI "does not have the appropriate guardrails" to limit their risk or liability around it.

Gender dynamics

Female leaders recognize AI's importance more, especially in mid-sized brokerages with substantial transaction volumes. A greater percentage of female leaders (85.3%) utilize AI in their businesses than male leaders (70.4%).

Female-led brokerages, particularly those with medium to large agent teams and high transaction volumes, are the most likely to use AI. The youngest and oldest male leaders, overseeing smaller brokerages, are less inclined to integrate AI.

The typical profile of a leader using AI today is an experienced senior executive, predominantly male, helming a mid-sized brokerage. This contrasts with the characteristics of brokerages most actively using AI, often led by women aged between 31-39 or 50-59 years, managing a considerable number of agents and overseeing substantial transaction volumes.

Concerning the apprehension of AI, more than half of the executives worry about the lack of "appropriate guardrails," with female leaders slightly more concerned than males. The highest level of worry is among brokerage leaders aged 60 or older, especially those managing smaller teams and lower transaction volumes. Conversely, middle-aged leaders of large brokerages with massive transaction volumes exhibit the least concern.

Other survey highlights:

- Older male leaders of mid-sized firms are most bullish on future AI importance

- Larger brokerages with female executives are more likely to have agents using AI

- Smaller brokerages led by older executives have the highest AI worry levels

- Larger brokerages with middle-aged leadership are least worried about AI

Built on top of Delta's new AI platform, Delta Pitch allows agents to create a complete CMA in as little as one-click but also doubles as a presentation builder. It instantly provides all relevant properties and essential information in an interactive flipbook.

Delta Pitch also creates a new lead generation opportunity for brokerages. When consumers visit their Delta-powered website and enter a property address through the AVM, consumers can automatically get a CMA based on current listings in their area.

DeltaNET 7 features a unified brand identity, so all internal tools look and feel the same. For example, brokerages can create custom dashboards showing agents their daily scheduled activities. In addition, brokerages can gain insight into agent CRM use and lead processing - automatically - based on the agent's customer activity. DeltaNET 7's AI also remembers individual preferences. For example, when agents return to the system, they will see information on the last contact opened.

Another significant new brokerage feature is DeltaNET Academy, an agent training center. The new integrated Academy empowers brokerages to offer customized and personalized training courses and deliver class schedules to agents.

Delta Media Group, Inc., located in Canton, Ohio, is a leading and trusted technology partner for many of the best-known real estate brands, including over 80 LeadingRE Affiliates and more than 50 top-ranked brokerages nationwide.

In September, Delta Media will launch its new DeltaNET 7 technology that leverages automation and artificial intelligence to create "the most customizable, most automated all-in-one platform in the marketplace." Registration is open for a sneak preview webinar on April 13 at XX:00 at this link (URL link here).

For the first time, large real estate brokerage customers can create and design their own all-in-one platform, with individually customized brokerage branding and features throughout. The DeltaNET 7 breakthrough allows personalized down-to-the-button design and navigation, all of which brokerages will control.

Delta Media has reinvested over $40 million into its technology offerings. Family-owned and profitable for over 25 years, Delta is known as one of the most stable firms among major real estate technology providers.

"DeltaNET 7 is game-changing," said Michael Minard, CEO and owner of Delta Media. "We will be launching the easiest-to-use, most automated CRM solution — and more importantly, the deepest customization available — to give brokerages their own all-in-one platform that they control, making it completely unique from what their competitors are using," he added.

With DeltaNET 7, brokerages also will be able to design specific "roles" that deliver a personalized experience for each agent, based on the tech tools each agent uses.

In addition to universal styling, DeltaNET 7 offers a mobile-centric and customizable workflow that eliminates "endless scrolling." Brokerages also can create specific training courses through Delta Academy for their customized DeltaNET 7 platforms.

"With DeltaNET 7, our highly successful integrations, automation, and artificial intelligence will be enabled by default. So instead of asking real estate brokerages what tech tools they want to feature, we will be coming to them with a data-driven success model giving them the ability to choose what they want to customize," says Minard. "This will help firms do more business in less time, utilizing data analytics that only the largest technology firms can provide."

DeltaNET 7 also is fully integrated with Delta Websites, featuring Patent-Pending SEO, the Delta Academy training system, as well as its full stack of digital marketing tools, including Ad Wizard, Local Showings, Properties in Motion and Open House Connector.

New CMA tech tool

The launch of DeltaNET 7 also will introduce a new "two-click" Comparative Market Analysis or CMA tool, Delta Pitch.

"While most brokerages want an all-in-one solution, others just want one tool to complete their tech stack for agents. That's why Delta Media is now all-in-one when you want it, best-in-class when you don't – when you only need just one superior tech solution that we offer," Minard added.

Delta's new CMA offering, Delta Pitch, features a quick-build platform allowing agents to create a "beautiful CMA in just two-clicks," explained Minard. "Delta Pitch is more than a CMA builder; it's an entire presentation builder."

Once an agent enters a property address, Delta Pitch automatically pulls in all the data it needs to create a digital CMA, offering a "flip book" link that agents can share with their clients. A built-in Delta Pitch feature gives an agent the ability to automatically launch a Zoom video call to share and review the CMA with a client.

Delta Media will rollout Delta Pitch in May and will begin piloting DeltaNET 7 this summer. The planned full launch for DeltaNET 7 is in September.

JACKSON TWP. – Real estate companies are turning to technology as they navigate a hot sales market, and Delta Media Group has benefited.

The local company's established products have been modified and improved, helping customers become more efficient, said Michael Minard, owner and chief executive officer.

Because of growing sales, the company is adding employees. Over the past three years, Delta Media has grown from fewer than 20 employees to 65. Minard said he recently added 10 employees and expects to have 80 people on board before the year ends.

Current business growth trends indicated Delta Media could have about 140 employees by the end of 2022.

The coronavirus pandemic has been a factor in the company's growth, as well as in hiring.

Minard said that because of the pandemic, real estate agents accelerated their use of technology. Smaller agencies began using the programs — for example, search engine optimization drive content and instant social media posts — that had been a mainstay of larger real estate companies.

As a result, Delta Media's real estate brokerage sales jumped 53% by the end of 2020. The record growth has continued this year with brokerage sales up 84% compared with 2019.

The growth made hiring necessary, while the pandemic led to telecommuting and working from home.

"That opened our eyes to what is possible," Minard said.

Telecommuting has made it easier for the company to find new employees, he said. Meanwhile, Delta Media is finding plenty of talented software engineers and technicians in the immediate area. 

Minard said the company's growth reflects the business activity of a start-up instead of a business that launched in 1994.

Delta Media started in Oregon, working with real estate brokers and giving them an online presence. The company moved to California's Silicon Valley four years later, but almost went out of business in 2000 when the dot com bubble burst and venture capital investments dried up.

Minard said James L. Bray, former Cutler Real Estate president, was an adviser for Delta Media. When Bray learned about the company's financial problems, he asked about buying it. Minard, Bray (who died in 2015) and two other investors bought Delta Media and moved it to Northeast Ohio.

Since then, Delta Media has been building on the products that gave the company its start. Each year, the company reinvests millions into tech development, Minard said. Just before the pandemic took hold, the company launched the DeltaNET 6 product line, which offers most of the software and services a brokerage would need for marketing.

The DeltaNET 6 platform is driving the recent sales growth, Minard said.

Now Delta Media is looking at how technology developed to help real estate agencies can be transferred to other business lines.

Minard bought out his partners in 2016, making Delta Media a family-owned company. The operation is remodeling a building at 7015 Sunset Strip Ave. NW to serve as headquarters.

"Once we complete our current hiring round, we will have grown from less than 20 team members to 65," said Michael Minard, CEO and owner of Delta Media, one of the most established and largest broker technology solutions providers.

Minard attributes record business growth directly to an "unexpected consequence" of COVID-19. "The pandemic rapidly accelerated real estate agent adoption of technology," Minard explained, which is now a crucial part of their daily workflow. "Technology once coveted by top producers – CRM, SEO driven content, automated drip marketing programs, instant social media posts – are now the mainstay of nearly every active agent we serve," he added.

At the end of last year, Delta Media reported its real estate brokerage sales jumped 53% year-over-year, with its primary customer base of real estate agents growing 30%. Its record-growth pace continues in 2021 as Delta brokerage sales have soared 84% from 2019.

"Our activity looks more like what you would expect from a startup than a company responsible for launching the first online property search in 1994," said Minard.

Known for its industry-leading, all-in-one DeltaNET 6 technology, which includes real estate's easiest to use CRM and powers many of the best performing broker websites, Delta Media expects to continue its hiring spree well into next year. At its current business growth rate, Delta will need to double its workforce.

In addition to adding new brokerage clients, Minard said Delta Media expects to benefit from its software development efforts significantly, noting it recently entered the showing software space with the launch of Local Showings by Delta Media.

"The core of our success will continue to come from the expansion of DeltaNET 6, which we believe helps solve many of the biggest problems most brokerages face," Minard said. He notes DeltaNET 6 offers brokerages instant interoperability – the ability for all agent core CRM and marketing technology to work seamlessly together, with data services based on Real Estate Standards Organization (RESO) standards.

"It's said that in business, timing is everything," Minard said. "At the time, our investment of more than 40,000 development hours and over $30 million in hardware and software to create DeltaNET 6 and launch it at the onset of the pandemic may have seemed like bad timing. Looking back now, by offering one platform that delivers, at the best price, nearly everything a brokerage needs to help their agents market themselves and their listings positioned us for record sales last year, this year, and into the future."

CANTON, Ohio – May 4, 2021 – Real estate technology systems that don't "talk" to each other are among the most frustrating pain points for real estate brokers and their agents. Research documents the importance of "systems integration," which ranks among real estate leaders as the number one need in real estate.

The WAV Group and RE Technology surveyed technology experts responsible for integrations at leading brokerages and residential Proptech firms to understand industry benchmarks on systems integrations.

Delta Media Group, a leading real estate tech firm, dominated the rankings along with MoxiWorks. A survey of three dozen technology experts shows that Delta Media and MoxiWorks rank first or second in all four major categories studied: the overall quality of the integration, the quality of the data transmission, Single Sign-on (SSO) quality, and customer service.

For Delta, the results are surprising, says Michael Minard, Delta Media CEO and owner, explaining, "18 months ago we realized that we had only completed a few dozen integrations, so we were not known for integrations," he said. "Fast forward to today and we are nearly at the top of the industry with more than 100 third-party integrations, including a deep integration with Zapier that unlocks thousands of integration possibilities with our platform."

"MoxiWorks and Delta Media are clearly the real estate tech leaders for setting the highest standard in systems integrations," said Victor Lund, founding partner of WAV Group, who headed up the study.

"It's also clear that real estate tech firms need to pay more attention to systems integration. Only 16% of those surveyed said systems integration was of 'little' to 'no importance' to their firm's success," Lund added, noting more than half – 54% – said integration was "very important."

Minard added that he found the data "fascinating" being ranked at or near the top of each category, particularly since MoxiWorks is well-known for integration. "Both Delta and MoxiWorks understand the needs of the broker and agents when it comes to systems integration. Delta is already in the process of upgrading how integrations work in DeltaNET 6 and, as a result of this study, we are raising the bar and looking to be the leader in all areas by 2022."

Over the next 9 months Delta Media will have completed "a major enhancement to the DeltaNET taking the complexity out of the integration process," Minard said.

Among the tech experts that WAV Group and RE Technology surveyed, 85% have been doing integrations for 5+ years and integrate with at least six other technology platforms.

The study also offered support to RESO data standards, with more than two in three surveyed noting that using Real Estate Standards Organization standards is "helpful" for integrations. Sixty-nine percent of those surveyed identified themselves as RESO members.

Here are the rankings of the top nine companies, selected by the WAV Group and RE Technology, for the systems integration study:

CANTON, Ohio – March 23, 2021 – Delta Media Group announced today the launch of Local Showings, an independent full-featured property showing software and service, as early as the first week in April. Uniquely, Delta Media currently integrates with hundreds of MLS boards nationwide and more than 350 real estate firms, covering 90 percent of all property data in the US.

Responding to unprecedented demand from MLSs and brokerages nationwide, Local Showings by Delta Media will be available to non-Delta clients as a standalone iOS and Android mobile app. For Delta clients, Local Showings will be seamlessly integrated into its all-in-one DeltaNET platform.

Delta Media also announced its commitment to a Phase II development of Local Showings. Phase II expands call center support and adds technical resources with new functionality for Local Showings, including capabilities that do not exist for current showing products. 

"We will provide a frictionless experience for brokerages, local MLS boards, and agents," said Delta Media's CEO and owner Michael Minard. "We are not trying to reinvent the wheel. Local Showings is intuitive, so agents don't need to go through hours and hours of training to understand it: It just works."

"We also don't want to disrupt any established budgets," Minard explained. "We plan to come in either at the price firms were paying, or even less, so they can avoid funding a company that is no longer a disruptor but a competitor."

Delta Media, which is 100% family-owned and operated, is committing in its contracts with MLS boards or brokerages that select Local Showings, a "guarantee" not to sell or be acquired.

"Delta Media has been independent for 27 years, and we have been in the trenches with independent real estate companies our entire existence. We're going to continue our independence," Minard added.

"We have no outside investors, no VC funds behind us, and no Wall Street investors influencing what we do. We only succeed when our clients succeed. That's why we are guaranteeing remaining independent in our contracts, so MLSs, brokerages, teams and agents don't have to go through this again."

Local Showings by Delta features includes:

• Schedule showings: any listing in the MLS, showing a calendar of available times with built-in request capabilities.
• Instant notifications: push notifications or text messages sent to agents when a showing is requested or confirmed.
• Active listings view: allows modification of notes about the listing.
• Contact view: see contacts sorted by buyers or sellers.
• Driving tours: dynamically built to see multiple properties with driving instructions.
• Activity reports: tracks showing schedule activity. See how many showings have been requested, pending, or denied.
• Feedback view: quickly see feedback on your listings or listings you have shown.
• Flexibility: ability to select multiple listings and schedule multiple showings with one click.
• Seller Reports: easily share information with homeowners.
• Chat: instantly connect and chat with other agents within your local board.

During a recent Facebook Live discussion about Local Showings by Delta, Leading Real Estate Companies of the World's Jeff Kennedy commented on current or emerging showing alternatives. He noted, "Most of the companies I've come across are either too new, they're only in one or two cities, or they are an augmentation to an existing service and not a standalone."

Kennedy added that while many new firms within the showing software space have polished interfaces that "look cool," they have little or no MLS integrations and that MLS integrations can take years to accomplish.

"Delta Media put up the very first website in the US powered by MLS data in 1994. We have been integrating with MLSs ever since," Minard explained. "For those who select Local Showings, it will be a turnkey experience. We already have the MLS board agreements. We update data in 5 minutes or less for the majority of our MLSs. We know how important a clean data experience is for agents and their clients. Most of the other showing alternatives are just getting started while we have established relationships built over decades."

One of the nation's largest, most established and family-owned real estate brokerage technology firms, Delta Media's CEO and owner Michael Minard said its showing service is already well over "90 percent complete." He notes that Delta already works with MLSs that cover 97 percent of the properties sold in the U.S.

"We have been inundated with calls from real estate brokerage customers, non-customers, and MLSs to build an independent system. The industry needs a showing service that is not beholden to Wall Street. Delta Media will staunchly protect the relationship between real estate agents and their clients," said Minard.

"Unlike others, we can turn on a dime," Minard added. He notes Delta Media proved this when the pandemic struck, building a Virtual Open House system to meet broker and agent demands in record time.

"We are ready to help out those who have been disenfranchised by recent events. Delta Media already has trusted relationships with nearly all MLSs, the ability to scale fast, and a nationwide footprint in place as we partner with many of real estate's most coveted brokerage brands," he said.

Delta Media Group, established in 1994, notes it is uniquely positioned to build and swiftly deploy a full-featured showing service that is entirely independent as the firm has no debt. Delta is real estate's largest family-owned and operated technology innovator with no outside investors or VC funding.  

Delta Media is known for its DeltaNET 6 CRM, web, and all-in-one digital marketing platform with a reliability record of 99.999 percent uptime. Last week Delta polled the real estate industry to gauge the level of interest in a new, full-featured, independent showing platform. The company reports that all of the industry responses received – 100 percent – said they wanted a full-featured independent showing service.

Minard said Delta Media is committed to a significant investment of dollars and resources to complete its independent showing service.

Delta Media, one of the most established and largest real estate broker technology solutions providers, offers a limited showing platform that has been in existence for 20 years as part of its all-in-one CRM, web, and digital marketing solution.

Delta is polling the real estate industry to gauge the level of interest in a new, full-featured, independent showing platform. The link for taking the online poll for a new showing service is at deltamediagroup.com/poll.

"Our current showing platform is 90 percent of the way to being a full-featured system," said Michael Minard, CEO and owner of Delta Media.  "We are ready to make a significant investment of dollars and resources to finish that last mile if we are certain there is enough market demand to warrant the effort," he added.

Delta Media's Minard shared that over the past ten years Delta has considered bringing the showing platform to the market, which includes creating a robust calendar interface and full management of the showing experience, but "we had decided to not launch our product because of the market share that other platforms had but I believe that changes with yesterday's announcement."

Delta Media currently works with 95% of the MLSs in the U.S., developing over the last two decades a reputation as a trustworthy partner by delivering the highest level of reliability, including system performance in 2020 with 99.999% uptime.

Minard added that Delta is reaching out to MLSs, large firms, teams, and agents that use its platform, "but also want to hear from other folks throughout the real estate industry."

"Because of COVID-19, real estate agents are using more tech tools in the last seven months than in the last seven years," said Michael Minard, CEO and owner of Delta Media, one of the most established and largest broker technology solutions providers. Its DeltaNet 6 CRM is real estate's most advanced all-in-one digital marketing, back office, and website platform.

Minard notes Delta Media had to pivot throughout 2020 to respond to the impact of COVID on real estate brokerages and agents. "After investing more than 40,000 development hours and over $30 million in hardware and software, we launched DeltaNET 6 at the onset of the pandemic in March, Minard explained. "It sounds like terrible timing, but in hindsight, this rollout positioned us for one of our best years ever."

Delta Media reports its real estate brokerage sales are up 53% year-over-year, with its primary customer base of real estate agents growing 30%. Delta Media now serves brokerages in 46 states across the country.

Instantly pivoting to meet unexpected technology needs and providing more comprehensive business and marketing support for real estate brokerages, Delta Media rapidly deployed new support for virtual open houses. The company also offered dozens of COVID-related articles and free webinars to advise and teach tens of thousands of agents – now working solely from home – how to use digital tools to continue to serve existing clients and prepare for a rebound in real estate.

"As one of Delta Media's first customers, we know their dedication to service and to staying on the cutting edge," said John De Souza, President of Northern Indiana's Cressy & Everett Real Estate. "Delta has been a true partner in creating new services, tools, and processes which make our agents more productive," he added, noting Delta Media tech drives 90,000 monthly visitors to its site.

As the impact of COVID on America continued to grow, in early and mid-2020, many real estate brokerages often found their current vendor tech support stagnated. Delta Media did the opposite, expanding system improvements while adding to its development and customer support teams. Support hours are from 8:00 to 6:00 EST and all calls are routed to tech support representatives and answered immediately.

Ken Carter, President & CEO of Watson Realty, the largest firm in the Bakersfield California region noticed. Watson had lost ground with their previous technology partner, especially in the area of a digital marketing solution. In converting to Delta Media to provide a new media platform, agent satisfaction increased dramatically, and consumer response rates nearly doubled. Carter said he was both "pleased" and "surprised" by Delta Media's actions.

"Pleased that Delta stayed with us through the expected learning curves involved in onboarding a new technology platform, and as patient as they were productive," explained Carter. "We made the relatively painless migration with their consistent support and generous counsel. Every question was met with a solution and the follow-through that brought our wants and needs into reality."

"Surprised in all that we had been missing in our digital space for so long, and the relative ease of stepping through each solution offered, and the impact it began having on our SEO and our social and consumer marketing efforts," he added.

Minard says Delta's record growth is attributable to providing brokerages "with their biggest bang for the buck." He notes brokerages face tight margins even though many also are having a record year. "At Delta in 2020, we revamped our AVM (Automated Valuation Model) platform, added new features for builders, commercial real estate, and teams, and updated and expanded our digital and print marketing offerings with the launch of Creative Studio. Customers received all of these major enhancements at no cost – all added on for free," he explained.

"And we put our money where our mouth is by giving brokerages and agents free trials with no contracts," Minard added. "We offer one platform that delivers, at the best price, nearly everything a brokerage needs to help their agents marketing themselves and their listings."

Poised for a "breakout" in 2021

Next year – 2021 – "is poised to be a breakout year for Delta Media," Minard said. Early in the year, his company expects to announce the addition of breakthrough technology that will make its DeltaNET 6 CRM "the most robust digital marketing platform at the best price-point in the marketplace."

Other improvements are coming online throughout next year, Minard notes, explaining, "Everything new we add maintains Delta's mission: Helping provide agents with the best advice, tech tools and resources available."

Delta Media Group, one of the U.S.'s most established and largest broker technology solutions providers, dramatically expands the digital and print marketing capabilities of its market-leading all-in-one platform with the launch of Creative Studio. An update and substantial expansion of Delta's highly popular ECard and Flyer design system, Creative Studio offers a number of new features including — for the first time — the ability to design marketing materials from scratch.

"Delta Media now offers agents and teams a single place that handles virtually all of their marketing needs," said Michael Minard, CEO and owner of Delta Media. Minard notes that DeltaNET 6 CRM platform features the real estate industry's top patent-pending SEO software that powers agent websites as well as "the most powerful and easiest-to-use CRM in real estate."

A design contest offering $1,000 total in Amazon.com Gift Cards for the best original Ecard or flyer is coinciding with the launch of the DeltaNET Creative Studio. Agents with access to Creative Studio can enter multiple designs, as can any other agent as Delta Media is offering a 30-day free trial of DeltaNET 6 that includes Creative Studio. More details about the contest are here and the free trail offer is available at deltamediagroup.com/free.

One of the most flexible marketing platforms available, Creative Studio now supports Adobe InDesign imports, as well as fully integrated same-day printing with overnight shipping by Xpressdocs. Creative Studio also offers an expansive library of professionally designed and customizable marketing templates for digital, social media and print-related needs.     

"Now with Creative Studio, agents and teams no longer have to pay multiple software marketing providers to build their business - cutting their monthly marketing costs," Minard explained. "Agents and teams also won't have to struggle using different marketing tools that are not integrated and don't talk to each other, solving a huge real estate technology pain point."

Other marketing platforms require agents or teams to input listing information for each property to create marketing materials. Like the previous eCard and flyer system from Delta, Creative Studio is embedded into DeltaNET 6 CRM platform, so no data entry is required. The listing information comes directly from the local MLS and instantly populates each marketing piece with a single touch or click. The CRM integration allows brokers, agents, and teams to deliver direct marketing materials to specific customer groups.

Images from the MLS are also automatically imported to create marketing materials simple and fast, and Creative Studio allows uploading of images from one's library for additional customization and personalization. Agents can integrate their marketing materials into Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and email campaigns.

While Creative Studio's basic mode helps agents and teams easily create all their digital, social and print marketing materials, Creative Studio features an advanced method for in-house and contracted marketing designers. The advanced settings allow the custom creation of marketing materials from InDesign files or scratch. Designers and advanced users can use Creative Studio to create custom-branded "smart" marketing materials that instantly change when importing the desired property listing information directly from the MLS with a single touch or click using smart data tags.

Creative Studio gives agents and teams the ability to create high-resolution, print-ready flyers, brochures, postcards, door hangers and more. Marketing materials can be provided to a local printer or directly within the platform to Xpressdocs, a leading provider of direct marketing solutions for real estate.

Delta Media Group, one of the U.S.'s most established and largest broker technology solutions providers, is giving brokerages a tool that provides their homeowner clients with a map showing recently sold homes in their area – complete with the final sales price.

It's the newest addition to the AVM page and part of Delta Media's DeltaNET 6 CRM platform. Used by top regional and local brokerage brands, the new "Recently Sold" map is available directly inside the brokerage website.

The AVM page displays home value estimates for each address from two leading real estate websites, and the "Recently Sold" map shows homeowners, buyers and sellers up to 10 listings within a 1.5-mile radius from their targeted address.

"Consumers want to know what their neighbors' homes have been selling for locally. There's no better way to show this than to put them on a map of the area the consumer will instantly recognize," said Michael Minard, CEO and owner of Delta Media.

Brokerages that deploy this new tool, Minard explains, will help solve real estate's No. 1 challenge today: a lack of inventory.

"Brokerages are discovering that showing local homeowners the real final sales price – not just the asking price – can help motivate some owners to become sellers, and that unlocks untapped inventory," Minard says.

The latest improvement to Delta Media's robust DeltaNET™ 6 platform, makes it easier than ever for brokerages to feature each home builder they represent, putting a spotlight on new home listings, sales models, videos, virtual tours, floor plans, documents for downloading, maps and more.

Available from directly inside the brokerage website, affiliated builders receive "a website within a website." Each updated section features a builder Home page and a navigation menu to give consumers more in-depth insight into the builder, new home offerings, links to new communities, and a contact feature to learn more about the builder.

New home communities have also been upgraded, giving real estate brokerages the ability to quickly create a builder community, extending the builder's marketing to reach more consumers. The new communities' landing page features an interactive Google map, which offers the ability to search for new communities by a specific county or school district. Once a community is selected, the website displays photos of the area, features of the community that can include additional videos and photography, homes listed for sale, its location on a map, hours of the builder sales office and contact numbers, and other videos, such as a walkthrough of the community.

Consumers can also search specifically for new home models by county, school district, price range, and the number of beds, sorting specifically by single-family detached homes or condo/townhomes, or both. Each model home also has a feature listing page on the broker's website.

"By improving the brokerages' ability to showcase builders and their communities, it strengthens the business bond between the broker, their agents, and the builder," says Michael Minard, CEO and owner of Delta Media. "Builders know that real estate agents sell 85% of all homes, and they want innovative new ways to connect with agents and their clients. Delta is working to create a stronger bridge between builders, agents and their clients."

Minard notes that Coldwell Banker Prime, a leading brokerage in Upstate New York, is among the first to debut the new Delta Media web service here. Coldwell Banker Prime, among the top 10 Coldwell Banker offices in the U.S., features 12 builders it has relationships with and dozens of their communities, all accessible from its main brokerage website.

A sample of a Coldwell Banker Prime affiliated builder community is available here.

Until now, the DeltaNET platform has been aimed at larger real estate brokerages and franchises. Beginning August 24, the entire DeltaNET 6 CRM platform with all features unlocked will be available to agents and teams as a 30-day no commitment trial offer. A free webinar that details the new program is set for Tuesday, August 25, at 3:00 pm Eastern Time, with details here (bit.ly/Delta-Free-Webinar).

"The best CRM is the one an agent will use," says Michael Minard, CEO, and owner of Delta Media. "Delta Media is offering agents and teams a CRM solution that's instantly adopted because it's fully integrated into the automated tools they'll use every day both for their websites and all their digital and traditional marketing."

Minard explains individual agents and teams can leverage an array of automation using DeltaNET 6, from set-and-forget drip prospecting campaigns and My Customer for Life auto email engagement offerings to Facebook and LinkedIn connectors, and its unparalleled eCards and flyers platform. "One system to capture, cultivate, and connect to clients," says Minard.

In addition to the built-in CRM, one of Delta's platform's most significant advantages is website and digital marketing customization, ensuring differentiation between brands that compete in any market. "Agents and teams thrive on differentiation," he adds.

Minard notes artificial intelligence improvements will enrich its DeltaNET 6 CRM capabilities. New AI features will power agent and team websites by offering consumer suggestions and automated marketing engagements – all tracked automatically inside its built-in CRM. Consumer search, for example, will monitor consumer behavior to anticipate the next steps. For agents and teams, artificial intelligence will help them review their sales funnel and make suggestions on which customers need to be contacted.

At the end of the 30-day trial, real estate professionals can keep the full-featured DeltaNET 6 platform for $99 a month, select from a starter program at $25 a month, or pay $49 a month for a more advanced program. Full details on these new program options will be available in September.

Delta Media tracked the performance of brokerage websites that it provides to large (250+ agents), mid-size (70 to 250 agents), and smaller (<70 agents) brokerages. The research shows the vast majority of brokerages are outperforming last year based on average organic online traffic and lead generation performance through May 2020, which includes the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The biggest surprise: for organic leads. Brokerages cost per organic lead is well below market standards, with the averaging between $4.56 and $6.69. WAV Group, a leading real estate consulting and research firm, notes many brokerages pay between $35 to $100 or more per online lead.

"Despite COVID-19, the pause button was not pressed by consumers," said Michael Minard, CEO, and owner of Delta Media. "While traffic growth slowed, particularly in luxury markets, the market never paused. What this means for small, medium and large brokerage websites is they are poised to come out of this strong. Each is deploying fully baked SEO strategies that will help them dominate in organic traffic and lead gen, giving them an advantage over advertising portals as real estate rebounds," he added.

Highlights of the Delta Media broker website research includes:

Averages for all brokerages year-to-date through May 31, 2020:

• Overall, brokerage web traffic is up an average of 28% year-over-year.
• Organic brokerage web traffic is up an average of 36% year-over-year.
• Lead generation is up by almost 10% -- 9.32% higher than 2019.

The average cost per organic lead for all brokerage websites was only $5.41.   

Large Brokerages turned in the some of the most robust averages:

• Overall, brokerage web traffic is up an average of 23% year-over-year.
• Organic brokerage web traffic is up an average of 56% year-over-year.
• Lead generation is up by 13% year-over-year.

The average cost per organic lead from large brokerage websites was only $4.56.

Mid-size Brokerages enjoyed website traffic as nearly as strong:

• Overall, brokerage web traffic is up an average of 24% year-over-year.
• Organic brokerage web traffic is up an average of 30% year-over-year.
• Lead generation is up by 13% year-over-year.

The average cost per organic lead from mid-size brokerage websites was only $4.98.

Even Small Brokerages, those with 70 or fewer agents, enjoyed similar gains in their brokerage website's organic traffic and lead gen:

• Overall, brokerage web traffic is up an average of 32% year-over-year.
• Organic brokerage web traffic is up an average of 22% year-over-year.
• Lead generation is up by 6% year-over-year.

The average cost per organic lead from small brokerage websites was only $6.69. While this is slightly higher than the average cost-per-lead that Large and Mid-size Brokerage clients captured from their Delta-provided websites, it is still substantially below the average cost to purchase online leads.

Minard notes that the key for brokerages achieving a lower cost-per-lead is the advanced SEO strategies that backs these websites. "At Delta, we committed to the user experience as part of our SEO strategy abut 15 years ago because we believed that combined with great content, it was the right thing to do. These numbers bear out the success of those strategies as these traffic reports demonstrate."

The company accelerated its development cycle to provide assistance to agents during COVID-19's unprecedented impact on the real estate market.

"We massively shrunk our development cycle to integrate Virtual Open Houses into our Open House search, our Market Watch Reports, our New Listing Emails, our lead management platform, Ad Wizard platform, email marketing platform, and our automated and highly-popular Facebook advertising platform," Minard added.

"Additionally, in talking with agents the past couple days and getting feedback, the biggest hurdle they face in doing Virtual Open Houses is the ability to affectively market them. We now have a fully integrated solution that empowers them to market Virtual Open Houses," said Minard.

"DeltaNET 6 is the ultimate all-in-one website and digital marketing platform designed by real estate experts for real estate professionals," says Michael Minard, CEO and owner of Delta Media. "This major advancement represents over 40,000 development hours and an investment of more than $30 million. DeltaNET 6 delivers advanced technology to our brokerage clients as our new center of excellence drives success through artificial intelligence and machine learning," he added.

Minard explained the approach that Delta Media is taking in the delivery of AI-powered features across the new DeltaNET platform. AI-based customer engagement via web site offers suggestions and automated marketing engagements. On the consumer facing search site, the solution will monitor consumer behavior and anticipate their next steps. In agent and team facing solutions, artificial intelligence is used to help review an agent's sales funnel and make suggestions to the agent on which customers need to be contacted.

Expected to be one the most popular features is the ability to customize the DeltaNET 6 dashboard. Its allows an office, broker-owner, team, or agent to create custom layouts of modules that they use the most in their daily workflow, supports single sign on (SSO), and many other features that empowers brokers to present the most important tools to the right agent or team at the right time.

As major real estate brands acquire broker technology platforms exclusively for their franchisees, Delta Media has been successfully offering orphaned brokerages a seamless conversion away from those platforms. With Delta Media's conversion tools, entire websites, CRMs, Customer Records, and often saved searches and other material content are transferred over to their new platform, provided by Delta Media.

"Nothing challenges independent brokerages more than the idea of using a franchise technology solution that undermines differentiation between brands that compete in a market," Minard said.

Delta Media will be hosting a reception at Leading RE immediately after networking night. Please visit Delta Media at Leading RE Booth 201 for reception details and to see the updated DeltaNET 6, which is being described as the most elegantly designed solution in real estate today.
