Today's real estate agent is caught in the middle of an epic battle between technology, big data and corporations. Giant tech companies have introduced business models with fancy tools that encourage home buyers and sellers to go it alone, without the guidance of an agent. The public is being misinformed and your business is on the line. Current home valuation tools are subjective, unreliable, outdated or just plain wrong concepts. How can you win your clients' trust when they are confused about home values?
In The Future of Real Estate Home Pricing, Anton Roeger, founder of APC Data Analytics, shows you how innovative new tools, processes and data can help you gain your clients' trust and become a sought-after authority on home buying and selling trends in your area. In this book, you'll learn how to:

combat online pricing giants that are misleading your clients with unreliable automatic valuation models (AVMs)
