Deep dives

Shifting Lead Volume Distribution

Many real estate market centers are reducing their reliance on lead aggregators and focusing on self-sourced lead aggregation. Previously, 90% of lead volume came from aggregators, resulting in high costs at closing. The goal now is to have 80% of lead volume come from the market center's own database, with 20% still coming from aggregators. This shift gives the market centers more control over their opportunities and revenue.
