Since the digital revolution began a few decades ago, there have been many technological advancements that have not only changed how the industrial sector operates, but also made it more convenient for people to carry out a home purchase or maintenance process. Businesses are now more technologically equipped than ever before, which has led to automated systems, data collection, and enhanced productivity. There are several technological advancements that have surely transformed the real estate sector, changed how properties are marketed; this in turn has impacted our customers and how they make housing decisions today.

Every successful business opts for a perfect blend of technological expertise and creative intelligence. So, as one of the most successful property developers in India, we have immense faith in how the power of advanced technology can help you make better, more informed decisions, while purchasing property. Here is how recent technology have redefined the real estate sector:

Home automation
Home automation, also known as domotics, is basically automating various components of a home, thereby making it a smart home. It involves automation in lighting, room temperature, electrical appliances, speakers, curtains, security systems, and many other  in your home. One can also automate calls, set up timers and alerts, and get the status of the weather or traffic.

Cloud Computing
Using cloud computing for transactions has become common in the real estate sector. People are investing in cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin. Cryptocurrency and blockchain have affected how customers purchase a property, in many parts of the world. Some of the biggest real estate developers have started considering cryptocurrency a form of monetary exchange, thus definitely giving it its due attention.

Internet of Things
The Internet of Things has given people the joy of being able to control every component of their house, be it lights, doors, or electric panels, by creating a well-synchronized system that utilizes cloud computing. With it, you can interconnect all the devices in your home and link it to a cloud-based platform that will send you notifications, thereby making your house technologically optimized.

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
Artificial intelligence and machine learning have shaped a different world altogether, when it comes to technological innovations. They’ve transformed the real estate sector with chatbots, forecasting loan defaults, automation in construction, property management, and investor analytics, thereby helping home buyers make decisions.

Building Information Modelling (BIM)
BIM technology is one of the most groundbreaking technologies that has imparted more convenience to any real estate developer out there. It enables designers to brainstorm and create a well-thought-out 3D layout of a planned property, with relevant information about timelines and costs. With this, they are now able to analyze all data-oriented components of property development to gauge your sustainability, efficiency, and energy needs.

3D Printing
3D printing has not garnered the amount of attention in India that it deserves, considering how revolutionary it is. With 3D printing, you can significantly reduce the amount of construction, be it residential or commercial property development. It will help property development firms minimize waste, labour, and various costs. It involves the printing of all the essential parts of a house, including plumbing, electrical connectivity, and venting. One more way it will up the game is by making it possible for them to access urban areas that are highly dense.

Drones and Satellite Imaging
It is expensive to install technological equipment, like satellite imaging and drones. However, if that part is covered, it can surely turn out to be immensely effective in giving potential clients virtual tours, especially when physical presence for the home tour s not possible (foreg: during the lockdown). Drones can also be used for the inspection and management of sites. In addition, they enable designers to make 2D or 3D images by using a coordinate system, which enhances accuracy in findings.

There are several other ways technology has improved the lives of those involved, directly or indirectly, in the real estate sector, like intelligent search platforms, enhanced security, property estimation, and augmented reality. So, if you wish to buy a house for either commercial or residential purposes, ensure you contact a reliable real estate development company that is known for its technological expertise and efficient procedures.
