Key Findings

While a majority of CRE firms have now invested in integrated CRE software solutions many are still using spreadsheets for critical CRE functions which is creating more data silos.

Driving efficiency through automation is a key priority for CRE executives, and the use of AI and machine learning is approaching a critical mass.

The rise of disintermediating technology platforms and solutions is having a major impact on the CRE industry.

CRE executives are uncertain on the potential role and impact of blockchain and smart cities as the next disruptive forces.

CRE firms are becoming PropTech investors themselves and many are engaged in PropTech development directly.
