A plain explanation of real estate CRMs and what a small brokerage actually needs.

What a CRM does

A CRM keeps a record of every client enquiry: who they are, what they asked about and what happens next.

What small brokers need

Not complex pipelines — just automatic capture, a link to the property, and a simple status.

Signs you need one

You forget follow-ups, can't remember which client saw which property, or leads live in scattered chats.
