Why technology can change this work

  • AI prepares reports, plans, minutes and management options
  • autopilot gradually takes control in constrained, well-mapped environments
  • algorithmic valuation and automated matching reduce property-search work
  • property search, valuation and listing preparation can be automated
  • virtual tours reduce routine viewings
  • documents and transaction checks move to digital services

What protects the occupation

  • accountability for people, priorities and conflicting interests
  • operation in bad weather, road works and unpredictable human behavior
  • a large share of value comes from human judgement, trust or personal accountability
  • property inspection and discovery of hidden transaction risks
  • client trust in a high-value infrequent transaction
  • negotiation between parties with different interests
