Chicago, IL—Buildout and theBrokerList, partnering again for the sixth consecutive year, have announced the release of their 2021 DNA of #CRE survey results.
The DNA of #CRE is the only survey focused on the people in commercial real estate and what they do to be successful, revealing changes in the industry over time. Questions center on demographics and brokerage focus to show who makes up CRE; where and how time is spent across the deal cycle to establish best practices; the most valuable resources in CRE; how to promote listings and market a brokerage brand; industry and technology predictions, and more.
“We created the DNA of #CRE with theBrokerList as a way of giving back to the industry,” said Buildout Director of Marketing Ewa Baska. “Our goal with each survey is to collect actionable data on the tools and tactics broker and marketers can use to build their business with every round of our results.”
Each year, the results of the DNA of #CRE survey fuel blogs, videos, and discussions across the industry, including experts like Rod Santomassimo of The Massimo Group and Diane Danielson, former COO of SVN International Corp. These experts, along with some of the leading CRE brands and companies, have served as promotional partners to the survey over the last two years to help it reach more industry professionals.
“I am so very proud of all we accomplished this year as a result of our amazing Promo Partners,” said Linda Day Harrison, founder of theBrokerList. “It was a tough year coming through the virus and we were still able to get folks to stop and take the survey. The survey has gained a dedicated following and we all work so hard each year to see that grow. This year was no different. The collaboration between Buildout and theBrokerList is always a sheer pleasure and I look forward to many years to come.”
