Turning Chaos into Cash Through Real Estate Innovation

By: Aaron Block, Zach Aarons

Narrated by: Joe Wosik

Technology is simply the means to an end to develop new processes, systems, and tools, but its influence is being felt in every corner of the real estate industry.

Given the dizzying pace and expanding scope of PropTech, though, how can anyone hope to keep up?

In their book, PropTech 101, authors Aaron Block and Zach Aarons present an insightful narrative into the PropTech and real estate industry in effort to help ensure that you don’t get left behind in the wave of change.

This is not an exhaustive look at PropTech; it is, rather, a broad overview of basic history, dynamics, key stakeholders, and trends that serves as a set of keys that will open the door and let you into the PropTech space so that you can begin to explore it with confidence and a mental map of the most important contours.

A basic intro that could have been much shorter

very repetitive, could have been an online blog entry, not a book. i found many online articles that were more informative.

Not worth buying

This audiobook solely markets a company in Ny about their lecture series and does not impart any new info. Disappointing!
