Raj Qsar is the principal/owner of The Boutique Real Estate Group and spends much of his time traveling to far flung destinations educating those in the real estate industry on the finer points of effectively using technology and social media.
The Southern California-based influencer will take the stage during Inman’s Indie Broker Summit on Monday, August 7 to address brokers from across the country on how to strategically think about their technology choices in their own practices.
We caught up with Raj to get his take on the advantages of being an independent broker and what other indies should watch out for in the coming year.
What do you see as the biggest benefit to being an independent broker?
Ability to adapt, change and execute quickly and the freedom to create & curate stories from the ground up.
What are your best tips and tricks for building your client base?
Real life networking and using technology to become more efficient.
What do you see as the most important trends (good or bad) that independent brokers should be keeping an eye on in the coming year?
Good: The merging of multiple techs into one platform.
Bad: So much “copying” and not enough creation.
