AI Revolutionizing Real Estate
- AI and emerging technologies are transforming the fragmented real estate production pipeline despite not physically building homes. - This transformation can close the productivity gap caused by lagging areas like construction and design.
Construction's Productivity Lag
- Construction is one of the slowest industries to digitize, causing costly project delays and inefficiencies. - Single bottlenecks in equipment or labor availability can delay entire building projects significantly.
AI-Driven Productivity Cascade
- The real estate production chain is highly interconnected and specialized, causing inefficiencies when any link slows down. - AI can optimize each link, streamline handoffs, and digitize property management for full lifecycle efficiency.
