W+R Studios Co-founder Greg Robertson Releases Debut Title, 'The Art of the CMA'
New book helps real estate agents and brokers let go of fear and compete in a new world of proptech. September 10, 2020 (HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA) - Software entrepreneur, blogger and podcaster, Greg Robertson has released his first book, The Art of the CMA. A 28-year veteran of the real estate technology industry, Greg is sharing his experience of helping create real estate's most popular Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) tools including the recent Cloud CMA Live. Throughout his career, Greg has had thousands of conversations with agents and brokers nationwide on how they can leverage real estate's most versatile tool, the CMA. The CMA is powerful in that it highlights their unique knowledge to compete both offline and online in a new world dominated by ever-changing business models and huge real estate portals. "Artificial intelligence is just that, artificial, it's not real," stated author Greg Robertson. "All real estate is local, and when it comes to something as crucial as pricing a home, nothing beats the eyes, ears, and nose attached to the brain of a good real estate agent. There is far too much time and energy spent in the industry hating on real estate portals, iBuyers and new business models who are "trying to destroy us." It is only when agents let go of fear that they can clearly see what a huge opportunity this new era in real estate brings." The new book includes a forward by industry thought leader Sharran Srivatsaa and bonus content of the results of the W+R Studios' 2020 Survey of Best Practices for CMAs and Listing Presentations.
