Having worked in real estate for decades, George Burchlaw noticed that regardless of size, real estate investment firms seemed to be drowning in data. He realized that firms needed a software platform more nuanced and customizable than a simple Excel spreadsheet, but that they also needed a partner to organize and analyze data on that mythical platform. RE Analytics was born, and George never looked back.
Listen in as we discuss:
— How George helps real estate decision-makers make informed decisions
— The challenges of high interest rates and outdated proformas
— How CPAs and real estate advisors can partner to create opportunity
